Proposal to not include finding aid as isPartOf for items, and add sameAs creative work for the finding aid in collections #174

Closed UcDust closed 3 months ago

UcDust commented 3 months ago

There are a couple issues with the data representation in sandbox DAMS.

  1. For items, there are a number that have isPartOf referencing the finding aid, but not the fcrepo collection ark. For example this item. Could we perhaps not reference the finding aid in items?
  2. For collections, many have references to the OAC finding aid in the descriptions, and some (possibly around half) also have an isPartOf reference to the finding aid website for the collection. Could we instead add a creative work reference to the finding aid using https://schema.org/sameAs, and remove the finding aid links from the descriptions?

@EricNebeker would it be possible to update the items (not sure if it's just the collection this item is in, or if it affects others) to also point to the collection they belong to?

If you look on the search page using the last display type for the view-

You'll see many that don't have a Collection: to reference, and on their item pages, the link to the parent collection also is missing.

We're just going to include finding aids in the collection descriptions instead of defining them separately. Closing this issue.
