Item data

Jump to: navigation, search

The following is the schema used for bib/item data in ShelfLife. It is fairly limited and needs to be fleshed out.

The schema is meant to support two different record types: bib item record and a uniform title record.

Schema:

field name	multi-valued	notes
id	no	globally unique identifier for this item
title	no	title of work
subtitle	no	continuation/subtitle
creator	yes	entities that created this item (authors)
frbr_level	no	item is either a uniform title or a manifestation (not both)
frbr_link	no	link to uniform title URI, if this item is a manifestation
imprint	no	publisher related information
date	no	date of publication
material_format	no	physical description of the item
desc_subject	yes	a descriptor, likely from a MARC 6xx subject field
desc_tag	yes	a descriptor, possibly from a user generated tag or other folksonomy
rsrc_google_books	yes	resource, likely a link to a google book
rsrc_wikipedia	yes	resource, likely a link to a wikipedia entry
id_loc_hollis	no	alternative identifier, in this case the harvard hollis id
id_loc_isbn	no	alternative identifier, in this case the isbn
