Notes

Resource Type

• DC type element.
• Use on both Simple and Qualified DC templates.
• Discrepancy between DC authorities for label: "Resource Type" (User Guide) and "Type" (Element Set Version 1.1).
• Use value list ("DC Resource Type" taxonomy) from DCMI Type Vocabulary:
  • Collection
  • Dataset
  • Event
  • Image
  • Interactive resource
  • Moving image
  • Physical object
  • Service
  • Software
  • Sound
  • Still image
  • Text
• Does not map to any existing core Qubit field.
• Handle by Qubit custom field (property::name="resource_type" value=" ").
• Note similarity to custom field in RAD template for managing RAD General material designation.
• Move to core Qubit field in information_object table?

Format

• DC format element.
• Use only on Simple DC template; in Qualified DC, splits into separate fields for Extent and Medium.
• Maps to Qubit information_object::extent_and_medium field.

Extent

• DC extent qualifier (refines DC format element).
• Use only on Qualified DC template.
• Does not map to any existing core Qubit field (partially overlaps with information_object::extent_and_medium).
• Handle via Qubit property::name="dc_extent" value=" ".

Medium

• DC medium qualifier (refines DC format element).
• Use only on Qualified DC template.
• Does not map to any existing core Qubit field (partially overlaps with information_object::extent_and_medium).
• Handle by Qubit custom field (property::name="dc_medium" value=" ").

Description

• DC description element.
• Use on both Simple and Qualified DC templates.
• Maps to Qubit information_objectscope_and_content field.

Abstract

• DC abstract qualifier (refines DC description element).
• Use on Qualified DC template only.
• Does not map to any existing core Qubit field.
• Handle by Qubit custom field (property::name="abstract" value=" ").
• Note correlation with EAD <abstract> and MODS <abstract> elements.

Table of contents

• DC tableOfContents qualifier (refines DC description element).
• Use on Qualified DC template only.
• Does not map to any existing core Qubit field.
• Handle by Qubit custom field (property::name="table_of_contents" value=" ").
• Note correlation with MODS <tableOfContents> element.

Language / Script of material

• DC language element.
• Use on DC Simple template; for DC Qualified, move to Access and use area div (better manage screen real estate).
• Maps to Qubit property::information_object_language and property::information_object_script

Rights management

• DC rights element.
• Use on DC Simple template; for DC Qualified, move to Access and use area div (better manage screen real estate).
• Discrepancy between DC authorities for label: "Rights Management" (User Guide) and "Rights" (Element Set Version 1.1).
• Content maps to 2 Qubit fields: information_object::access_conditions and information_object::reproduction_conditions.
• Recommend handling as Qubit property, reserving core Qubit fields for direct mapping to DC qualifiers (accessRights and licenses).
