The MOSC Project: Using the OAI-PMH to Bridge Metadata Cultural Differences across Museums, Archives, and Libraries

Metadata Harvesting with R and OAI-PMH

The Open Archives Initiative (http://www.openarchives.org/) develops and promotes interoperability standards that aim to facilitate the efficient dissemination of content. One key project is the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH, http: //www.openarchives.org/pmh/) which provides “a low-barrier mechanism for repository interoperability” for archives (institutiona...

Oai-pmh Based Interoperation for Spatial Metadata

The interoperation of spatial information is an effective way for sharing spatial information, in order to complete any exchanges and integrations of spatial information within and between application systems and organizations. This paper is to apply the metadata interoperability-related research outputs, namely Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH), in the field o...

Redalyc OAI-PMH: The Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (Protocol Version 2.0)

With the arrival of the new communication systems and the “disappearance” of the borderlines, new challenges emerged to scientific production and spreading. We recognized that great part of that production was unknown and its area of influence is limited. We stated what we already knew, that social sciences were under-represented in databases that determined “the great current of science” and t...

The OAI2LOD Server: Exposing OAI-PMH Metadata as Linked Data

Many institutions grant access to their metadata repositories via the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH). However, this protocol has two significant drawbacks: it does not make its resources accessible via dereferencable URIs, and it provides only restricted means of selective access to metadata. The OAI2LOD Server handles these shortcomings by republishing meta...
