Please describe and add notes for the following requested Digital Resource Commons features, or add other features to the list:
Names associated with items have agreed to take the lead on that one.
ACCESS RESTRICTIONS/PERMISSIONS
- Leverage member LDAP or other authentication systems to allow restrictions based on institution, college, department, major, etc., as well as integration with campus one-stop login/authentication systems. (Ideally restrictions would be enforced on an object, not collection or sub-community level, but restrictions at collection level might meet minimum needs.) - Fran Rice and John Millard
- Restriction of collections on institutional level
AGGREGATION/HARVESTING
- Develop the capability in the DRC to harvest and aggregate metadata from the locally hosted collections of OhioLINK members in order to provide unified search access to these rich and diverse collections. (recommendation 6 in TF report) (this was deleted from the list somehow so I'm putting it back in) - Nena Couch
- From whatever locally hosted collections, whether those be in CONTENTdm, Luna, etc.
CUSTOMIZATION
- Direct access for liaisons to Manakin interface (or other xslt, xml or html based interface -- whatever works) for institutional and collection branding - Jane Wildermuth
- Create customizable forms for submission by different populations
- Machine readable schema
- Preference setting, per collection, for the highest
resolution of static image derivatives that can be printed and/or downloaded. Software would allow even higher resolution images to be contributed to the collection for viewing, presented through a viewer that controls user options for printing and/or downloading. (Higher resolution images could be jpeg2000, Zoomify or other non-simple format -- UI options for downloading and/or printing those formats may not be obvious anyway.)
END USER ENHANCEMENTS
- Expanded browsing -- allowing a grid of thumbnails both horizontally and vertically, not just a vertical list, to allow users to browse a collection by image thumbnails with greater speed.
- Favorites list
- Multiple views of text-based file formats - TEI? - Linda Newman
- 'Web 2.0' features (turned on or off per collection, per
collection manager's preference):
- 'embed this' -- embed an object with appropriate user controls for that object on personal web space
- 'faceted searching' -- making 'who what where when' links more obvious for follow-on searches using metadata in a found record
- 'folksonomies'-- (registered) users adding subject keywords
- 'tag clouds' -- presenting metadata and folksonomy through visual depiction of content tags.
- An integrated web space for (registered) user comments and queries about the content of a collection
FORMATS
- 3D VR Objects - John Davison
- Manuscript collection needs - hierarchical format and page turning - Janet Carleton
- Streaming video
- Support for display of full range of formats -- jpg2000, TEI or other XML-based text, in addition to streaming audio & video, java applets (as in 3D VR).
MIGRATION/IMPORT/EXPORT
- CONTENTdm Migration - Kif Francis
- LUNA Insight migration/export, possibly using LUNA's XML gateway - Linda Newman
METADATA
SEARCH
- Indexing of specialized fields in federated search
- Robust federated search, coupled with flexible display that appropriately identifies collection & institution identities of retrieved objects
SUBMISSION
- Direct faculty submission into the repository
- Remote Bulk Submission - John Millard and Jane Wildermuth
OTHER (not sure where they fall)
- Additional editorial processes in workflow
