Updated the TAC team on the outline of the work plan earlier in the week
We will proceed with reviewing and finalizing the work plan during this meeting
Scheduled for December TAC Call
Work Plan
Need to break these down into smaller tasks, and have people volunteer to take on this work
First item: Defining level of commitment to various standards
Key is to determine what this actually mean
ASpace exports MARC records
But a functional MARC record can still be fairly skeletal in content
EAD2002, DACS, and MARC are the core standards
Emerging standards
What do we think the second and third tiers look like?
EAC-CPF with agents and revision improvements will increase the support to ensure that more than minimal records
Should we be deeply involved in this?
Christine: For the application right now, this won’t be available for testing for at least 1 month
Mapping:
Once we have a workflow for getting through the different mappings, we can return to the mappings for EAC-CPF after agent/revisions have been addressed
First Tier:
Perhaps the ability to both import and export could define this?
Any first tier metadata standard shouldn’t just be functional, but optimal
EAD3 is functional, but not all of the tags are used fully
