ARTstor
Use Case: ARTstor Digital Library
Description
What
ARTstor Digital Library, the more than 1.5 million ARTstor curated images, 3 million hosted collection images and 500,000 personal collection images. SharedShelf: potentially million of images and other digital asset that SS subscriber will catalog and maintain.
Scope
Comments, classification, reply that ARTstor users will use this tool to annotate images stored in ARTstor. We can even extend the OAC model to handle all "events" inside ADL such as the full metadata model and any association with control vocabulary.
Who
Students, Instructor that uses ARTstor for teaching and learning, Scientists and scholars that use ARTstor for research and scholarly communication. ARTstor's own metadata team.
Details
Relevance
For example, in ARTstor, an image will be a target and the full metadata will be a content. So the "annotation type" that connect the target to this content is "metadata". We can also attached other "annotation type" such as "instructor notes", etc, etc to the same target, in this case, the same image. We will have to create formal "transcription" that will explain what is the different type of "annotation". Using the OAC model, we can "describe" everything that is "attached" to an image in ADL as different type of annotation. This could become a formal way to describe all the "content and events" that we have in ADL and how to systematically expose and interoperate everything that is or can be connected to an image in ADL.
Challenges
Currently, there is no systematic way to describe or expose all "content and events" that are associated with an image in ARTstor.
