Field of the Month
| Melissa
| Provided a demo of the batch metadata editing process for the Title field at the January 7 Open Forum and made some minor updates to the Confluence documentation following that demo (e.g., added a couple of screenshots and revised the instructions for Find & Replace within Excel). Sent a poll to ScholarWorks project managers to schedule a coworking meeting for metadata cleanup; will schedule an initial meeting at the end of the day on Friday, January 21. Discuss the draft documentation for Creator, Advisor, and Committee Member fields. Confirm the previously discussed changes to the Creator field help text. Plan to share all of this information during the February Open Forum.

Updates from the Work Forms Task Force | Dave | |
Multi-author Works with Multiple Affiliations | Hema and Melissa | Question from Hema’s campus: In the case of multi-institutional authorship scenarios: Should both campuses deposit the item redundantly and separately? Should one campus (e.g., of the corresponding author) be the primary depositor, then cross-reference to the other campus in the author metadata? Is there a way to associate a deposit record with multiple campus administrative sets?
We’ve discussed this in the past and the potential benefits of being able to associate a single work with more than one administrative set. |
