Ur-Core Statement of Principles

Objectives for an Ur-Core Element Set

To mediate translation from one metadata standard to another and from one system to another
To govern the aggregation of different kinds of metadata in the same systems.
To enable the archiving and preservation of digital objects through their lifecycle.

Description of what makes an element a core element

Ur-Core Element Set

DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT

Element Name	Question?	Examples we thought of	Element Description
Identifier	How do I know I have the right item? How do I get the item?	Handles, infoURIs, homegrown URIs	A globally unique, persistent string.
Rights	Who can use it? What is it's copyright status?	Copyright, Usage rights
Name	What is it?	Title, Caption	Title proper, parallel title, alternative title, or other title information. Descriptive title, a statement of identification (item is known as...) can include a combination of values from other elements; Also known as a "caption;" short explanantion, or description accompanying a digital object.
Agent	Who did it?	Corporate, Personal, Creator, Contributor, Role	A person, organization, or service responsible for the content creation of the resource. Catch-all for unspecified contributors.
Location	Where do the libraries keep store it? Where was it made?	Repository Location, Location Created, Location Depicted	when was it made who can use it what is the copyright, what is the location being depicted, where do the libraries keep it, how was it made
Date	When was it made?	Date material was created, Date depicted, Date Event,
Type	How was it made?	Genre, Medium, Format, (Image, Text, Audio, Video, Data)
Repository	Who can use it? Where to find it	Repository holding material	Entity responsible for providing intellectual access to materials
Notes		Description, Abstract
Not Quite Ur-Core
Relation Is a core element for object in hierarchy	What is it a part of?	Collection, Components, Items in Other Collections	If object is part of a larger collection to show its place in the collection; or if a digital object itself is a complex digital object, relation of each file to the whole object.
Language	What language is it written it?
Subject	What is the location depicted/described? Who is depicted/described? What is the date depicted/described?
