Generate DRI/MODS Metadata records
Ingest ready!
• A rich use case for developing and validating
– MODS metadata implementation as a DRI data model
– DRI support for collection organisation and relationships
– UI (collection navigation, search and relationships display)
• A means of identifying the weaknesses in the Digital Collections database and making our metadata more compliant with the MODS standard
