PDCP Project Overview
Toward a PA DPLA Hub
August 2014: meeting at the Free Library of Philadelphia
Initiated by Joe Lucia and Stacey Aldrich, former PA State Librarian
Including representatives from a number of institutions across the state
Founders
Why get involved?DPLA as major discoverability conduit:
Worldwide exposure for PA content
DPLA as a means of working efficiently:Collaboration at the cross-institutional levelTaking advantage of economy of scaleDPLA portal / api vs. customized siloes
DPLA Hub and Spoke ModelContent Hubs:
Single institutions, 200K+ objects, i.e. NARA, Hathi Trust, NYPL
Service Hubs:Content aggregation for many
institutionsState/regional level; ideally 1:1 ratioDigital Commonwealth (MA), Mountain
West Digital Library, Empire State Digital Network (NY)
Digitization and Repository Support Activities
Digitization:For organizations that have not started
digitizing materials, or have not done much
Potential for remote, local and mobile digitization options (a.k.a. “scannebagos”)
Provided by the State Library of Pennsylvania
Content Hosting:For organizations that already have digital
files but no current digital repository capabilities
Provided by POWER Library (HSLC)Free for Pennsylvania institutions
SUCCESS!PDCP Announced as DPLA
Pennsylvania Service hub, August 28, 2015!
Estimated Timeline:September, 2015 - OrientationOctober-November, 2015 - Signing Legal
Agreements, Metadata RevisionOctober-December, 2015 - Metadata
normalization, harvesting tests and QAEarly 2016 - Planned live ingest of records
into the DPLA!
PA-DPLA Aggregator
Proof-of-concept prototypeDevelopment: Pennsylvania State University / Temple University
partnershipDec. 2014 - Mar. 2015Hydra (Fedora) - Open Source Platform
Harvesting & exposing metadata via OAI-PMHhttps://github.com/tulibraries/dplah
Released production versionSummer 2015
PA-DPLA Aggregator

Testing Data http://libcollab.temple.edu/aggregator-testing/
Prototype Harvested Content“Lowest hanging fruit”:
○ OAI-PMH harvestable data■ 29 institutions, 147K+ harvested records
○Primarily targeting collections from PDPC Steering and Planning Committee institutions
○Keep numbers manageable for testing purposes
○Scalable to full production mode for the future
Why do we need good metadata?

Collection Policies
CC0 Metadata
Contributing institutions are required to share their metadata and thumbnails under a CC0 license (full access - no rights reserved).
The digital objects themselves retain any original specified rights.
Collecting ScopeThe following types of collections are NOT currently accepted by the DPLA:Scholarly materials: ETDs, Journal ArticlesFinding Aids: EADs, Collection GuidesAggregate Description: Objects described at the
folder, series, or collection level instead of the item level
Items that don’t resolve to a publicly-accessible URLIndividual page-level objects instead of compound
ones
Restricted ItemsIf your institution needs to restrict any digital objects at the item level, for copyright or other reason:Enter the string pdcp_noharvest in fields that map to either of these Dublin Core values:dcterms:accessRightsdc:rights
Restricted Area for Humans Only, Ronyasoft, http://www.ronyasoft.com/products/poster-forge/templates/funny-signs/restricted-area-sign-template/images/restricted-area-sign-template.jpg
Derived Fields
Derived FieldsDerived fields are those metadata fields that are created by the PDCP aggregator automatically from the OAI-PMH feed.
Happy Face, Temple University, http://digital.library.temple.edu/cdm/ref/collection/p15037coll3/id/6541
Derived = “Dont worry, be happy!”
ThumbnailThumbnails are the small preview versions of your digital object that are shown both in your repository and in the DPLA.
They are important because they give viewers a confirmation that they have found (or not found) what they are looking for.
ThumbnailThumbnails can be derived by our aggregator from these common repository systems:
CONTENTdmBepressOmekaVUDL… and more to be added
Thumbnail
Portrait of Zapata, Kutztown University, http://digital.klnpa.org/cdm/ref/collection/asaro/id/21
ThumbnailFor other systems, we need a consistent path where the thumbnail is housed, i.e.:
http://www.server.org/repo/thumbs/$identifier/
CollectionThe collection name is set up by the team before harvesting. It generally matches the digital collection name found online.
Contributing InstitutionThe contributing institution name refers to YOUR ORGANIZATION and is set up by the team before harvesting.
Are YOU in This?, Temple University, http://digital.library.temple.edu/cdm/ref/collection/p16002coll9/id/2952
Contributing InstitutionThe Contributing Institution name can also be pulled automatically from the following DC fields:
ContributorCreatorPublisherSource
Intermediate ProviderIf your data is hosted by an aggregator or common repository then we list that entity as an Intermediate Provider, i.e.:
Keystone Library Network (KLN)Lackawanna Valley Digital Archives (LVDA)
POWER Library (via HSLC)
Resource LocationThe Resource Location is a trackback to the original collection URL for a digital object.
Example: http://content.lackawannadigitalarchives.org/cdm/ref/collection/SPL/id/36
Resource Location

Resource LocationRequired by DPLA to present your original data record.
Can be derived from the OAI-PMH data feed for typical systems:
CONTENTdmBepressOmekaVUDL Can be custom mapped if needed for other systems, e.g.:http://www.server.org/repo/$identifier/
Required fields
TitleOther than the thumbnail, the title is often the first piece of information a user sees on a results listShould be the name by which an object is known, not a file name
LanguageRequired if appropriate
3 letter ISO 639-2 language codes are preferredAggregator normalizes these codes to full
language names for displayExamples:
