Introduction

This document describes a DC Application Profile for describing an eprint, or scholarly work. The application profile is based on the SWAP [WWW]Model, which is in turn based on FRBR. The model comprises 5 entities - ScholarlyWork, Expression, Manifestation, Copy and Agent. This application profile provides a way of describing these entities as part of a description set (a set of related DC descriptions).

The notion of a description set is part of the DCMI Abstract Model. Readers that are not familiar with the DCMI Abstract Model should read [WWW]A note about the DCMI Abstract Model before proceeding.

All the examples in this document are formatted according to the DC-Text notation. Readers who are not familiar with DC-Text should read [WWW]A note about DC-Text before proceeding.

In the context of this work an eprint is defined to be a scientific or scholarly research text (as defined by the [WWW]Budapest Open Access Initiative), for example a peer-reviewed journal article, a preprint, a working paper, a thesis, a book chapter, a report, etc.

Scholarly Works Application Profile

Each description set that complies with the Scholarly Works Application Profile is made up of a set of related descriptions about the entities listed above. Therefore, a typical description set (using the DC-Text notation) has the following structure:

Each description set describes only one eprint (i.e. one ScholarlyWork entity). However, multiple descriptions may be used to describe multiple Expression, Manifestation and Agent entities as necessary.

The metadata terms that may be used to describe each entity are described below. Note that all properties may be repeated if necessary. Unless otherwise noted, multiple value strings should be provided using separate statements. Where appropriate, each value string may have an associated language tag.

A minimal description set that conforms to this application profile must include either:

All other aspects of the application profile are optional. #!DSP

Description of the eprint as a ScholarlyWork

Entity type


Property http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/type
Min occurrence 1
Max occurrence 1
Literal? No
Definition The type nature or genre of the content of the resource.
Eprint-specific recommendation Each of the entity descriptions in the description sets conforming with this application profile will need to be explicitly typed. This is done using a dc:type statement with one of the following value URIs taken from the [WWW]Eprints EntityType Vocabulary Encoding Scheme corresponding to the entity being described.
Value (Non-Literal)
Value URI Constraint:
Occurrence mandatory
Choose from: http://purl.org/eprint/entityType/ScholarlyWork/
Vocabulary Encoding Scheme Constraint
Occurrence: mandatory
Choose from: http://purl.org/eprint/entityType/
Value String Constraint:
Max occurrence 0
For example:

Title


Property http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/title
Min occurrence 1
Literal? Yes
Definition A name given to the resource.
Eprint-specific recommendation The title of the eprint.

Preserve the original wording, order and spelling of the eprint title. In general, only capitalize proper nouns, though there may be exceptions to this rule particularly regarding Internet-related terms. Punctuation need not reflect the usage of the original. Subtitles should be separated from the title by 'space-colon-space'.

For example:

Subject


Property http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/subject
Literal? No
Definition The topic of the content of the resource.
Eprint-specific recommendation The topic of the eprint.

In general, choose the most significant and unique words for keywords, avoiding those too general to describe a particular eprint. For free-text keywords use multiple statements, one for each term. There are no requirements regarding the capitalization of keywords though internal (within archive) consistency is recommended.

Where terms are taken from a standard classification scheme encode each term in a separate statement. Use a vocabulary encoding scheme URI to indicate the classification scheme in use. Encode the complete subject descriptor according to the relevant scheme. Use the capitalisation and punctuation used in the original scheme. Where subject terms are taken from LCSH, the subfields of the subject heading should be separated by double dash (--) and spaces should be omitted.

If the subject of the eprint is a person or an organization, provide their name as a value string according to A note about the form of personal and organisational names used in value strings.

Entity typing

Each of the entity descriptions in the description sets conforming with this application profile will need to be explicitly typed. This is done using a dc:type statement with one of the following value URIs taken from the [WWW]Eprints EntityType Vocabulary Encoding Scheme:

For example:

A note about the form of personal and organisational names used in value strings

Where personal or organisational names are provided as value strings, the following guidelines should be followed.

Personal names should be listed surname or family name first, followed by comma-space, then the "usual" or preferred form of forenames and/or initials followed by a full stop. If necessary, this may be followed by the full set of spelled-out forenames in round brackets. Use the same form of name for all eprints, irrespective of the form used on the item itself. ||

For example:

In the case of organizations where there is clearly a hierarchy present, list the parts of the hierarchy from largest to smallest, separated by full stops. If it is not clear whether there is a hierarchy present, or unclear which is the larger or smaller portion of the body, give the name as it appears in the eprint. ||

For example:

The inclusion of personal and corporate name headings from authority lists constructed according to AACR2, e.g. the Library of Congress Name Authority File (LCNA), is also acceptable.

A note about using identifiers

Each of the entities in the model may be assigned a URI, encoded as the resource URI in the description of that entity.

It should be noted, however, that assigning and encoding a URI is not mandatory for any of the entities. Although the lack of a URI for any entity means that the entity can not be referenced from within metadata records in other eprint systems, the assignment of URIs to entities should be performed with care (and, where possible, after first checking whether a URI has already been assigned to the entity elsewhere). Multiple URIs for a single entity are likely to cause problems for downstream eprint systems, since it may be difficult for them to determine algorithmically whether any two URIs identify the same entity.

Where the ScholarlyWork and Expression entities in a description set have additional URIs, these should be encoded in one or more dc:identifier statements. As noted in the relevant sections above, in cases where there are multiple URIs for any entity, one of the URIs should be used as the resource URI. Recommended best practice is to use a DOI or Handle as the resource URI, where these exist.

The URIs assigned to each of the entities should uniquely identify a single entity. There may be more than one URI per entity, but each URI should only identify one entity.

It is an implementation issue whether the URIs assigned to the ScholarlyWork and Expression entities dereference to a representation of that entity. However, it is anticipated that eprint systems are likely to be configured such that the URI for ScholarlyWork and/or Expression entities dereference to a 'jump-off page' for the eprint, as served by the archive.

In all cases where a dc:identifier statement is provided, use a syntax encoding scheme URI to indicate that a URI is being provided. ||

For example:

It is not yet clear whether current practice is to assign DOIs at the level of the Work or at the level of the Expression (as those terms are used in FRBR) or in a more fine-grained way. The current [WWW]Crossref documentation indicates that DOIs should be assigned to the 'work', however it is not clear that this usage of the word 'work' corresponds with its usage in FRBR - in fact, it is rather more likely that it corresponds with the use of the term Expression in FRBR.

There is also other evidence that publishers typically assign DOIs at the level of the FRBR Expression. For example, the [WWW]DOI Handbook discussion about 'granularity' concludes that in practice it is safer to assign separate DOIs to each language translation of a given article, i.e. to assign DOIs at the level of the Expression.

As a result, it is suggested that the following guidelines are followed when making use of DOIs in the context of this application profile:

In all cases, the 'http://dx.doi.org/10.100/12345' form of URI encoding should be used.

Note that publisher-assigned DOIs are highly likely to fall into cases 1 or 2.

A note about mapping the Scholarly Works Application Profile to Simple DC

http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/repositories/digirep/index/Mapping_the_Scholarly_Works_Application_Profile_to_Simple_DC Mapping the Scholarly Works Application Profile to Simple DC] is available as a separate document.

The mapping enables software to 'dumb-down' (i.e. transform) a description set that conforms with this application profile to a description set that conforms with simple DC. In this context, 'simple DC' means a description set that comprises a single description that only uses the 15 properties in the [WWW]Dublin Core Metadata Element Set.

It is worth noting that by using this mapping, a description set that complies with this application profile will be dumbed-down to form a description that complies with the [WWW]Using simple DC to describe eprints document produced by the [WWW]ePrints UK project.

It is also worth noting that the resulting simple DC description is about the eprint as a ScholarlyWork. While this is not the only approach to mapping this application profile to simple DC (for example, it would also be possible to map this application profile to a set of simple DC descriptions about each of the Copy entities) it fits well with the intended usage of this application profile in the [WWW]OAI Protocol for Metadata Harvesting. In this case, each [WWW]OAI item will have associated records that correspond to both the oai_dc format and an XML format based on this application profile.

The particular mapping discussed here and in the separate document does not preclude alternative mappings being generated in the future.
