The corollary to this is that it makes sense to include a list of supported languages for a website in an organization's definition file so ultimately it may make sense to use a dictionary in object_url
. I guess it depends on whether or not similar language qualifiers need to be applied elsewhere (IIIF manifests, perhaps?)
For example, the definition file for the Rijksmuseum assumes that the
object_url
property will point to the English-language version of their website:Those kinds of assumptions shouldn't be... well, assumed. This might mean redefining the
object_url
property to be a dictionary along the lines of:Or maybe just changing the software packages that expand URI templates to take a dictionary of values (to expand) rather than a single (accession_number) value.
The latter approach feels more-better to me, as I write this. TBD...
