taxonomic treatment: DataCite language #116

Open myrmoteras opened 4 years ago

myrmoteras commented 4 years ago

Zenodo created a new resource subtype of the resource type "publication". It looks like this in the Zenodo JSON:

"resource_type": {
"subtype": "taxonomictreatment", 
"type": "publication", 
"title": "Taxonomic treatment"
}

The subtype maps to a DataCite resourceType element, the values for which are "open", that is not controlled by DataCite. The Zenodo "type" maps to the DataCite "resourceTypeGeneral" which does have a controlled list of values; in the case of publications it is "Text". Therefore the DataCite metadata looks like this:

<resourceType resourceTypeGeneral="Text">Taxonomic treatment</resourceType>
