#oaipmh — Public Fediverse posts

This will be very interesting to a very small group of people: 'For cultural institutions that provide metadata to the data space for cultural heritage, the implementation of IIIF Change Discovery provides an alternative to implementing OAI-PMH.' https://pro.europeana.eu/post/delivering-metadata-to-europeana-via-the-iiif-change-discovery-api

The study shows that around half of supposedly "open" repositories are not technically open at all - their OAI-PMH endpoints are broken, outdated, or misconfigured:

For me, this paper is not a revelation, but a confirmation of a simple point: open science does not start with policies or declarations. It starts with routine infrastructural work - making sure that the basic protocols actually work.

Für das Deutsche Literaturarchiv in Marbach habe ich vor einiger Zeit einen performanten OAI-PMH-Dienst entwickelt, um die ca. 3,5 Millionen bibliographischen Datensätze standardisiert in verschiedenen Formaten anbieten zu können.

Die Software ist selbstverständlich quelloffen und jetzt ist endlich auch die Dokumentation fertig.

#Handschriftenportal erhält erste Schnittstelle: Der Zugriff auf unseren umfangreichen Datenbestand ist nun per #OAIPMH möglich. Datensets sind als #TEI und #DublinCore verfügbar.

🔜 Weitere Schnittstellen folgen. Um die Bedarfe der Community besser einschätzen zu können, freuen wir uns über Ihr Feedback: Welche Schnittstellen sind für Ihre Arbeit und Forschung besonders relevant?

Das heißt aktuell müsste man Zenodos #oaipmh abgrasen und nach den XML-Einträgen filtern und die scrapen?

Good news from the US Repository Network (#USRN):

"At the beginning of the project, about half of the #repositories did not have their #OAIPMH interface properly configured and, therefore, could not be indexed by external discovery systems. After just over a year of the pilot, all but one repositories are now OAI-PMH compliant. This has resulted in a 50% increase in indexed content, with 728,770 new records now publicly accessible."

There was me still thinking that it'd be good to get around to adding #OAIPMH to a wiki, but now it's probably better spending the effort on #ActivityPub integration. So far, OpenGraph support has been the most useful, and that's super simple in comparison.

@pouyllau on dirait que #Calames va enfin être moissonnée par #Isidore ? c'est une très bonne nouvelle @archivistodon #OAIPMH #archives On attend ça pour la semaine prochaine ?

@josh Similarly, it's relatively common for #DSpace #OAIPMH endpoints to be styled with #XSLT. For example all the Italian universities have something like this:
https://air.unimi.it/oai/request?verb=Identify

(I see they've recently broken the list of records, it doesn't style the metadata any more. Sad.)

@eb

@pascaliensis ah, you mean you would use an OAI-PMH endpoint as #reconciliation service directly? What sort of resources would the OAI-PMH endpoint expose? (it does not seem so easy to implement - so far I was just thinking about creating an #OpenRefine project from an #OAIPMH endpoint - and then, if we could reconcile between two OR projects, that could solve your use case I guess)

If #OpenRefine could import data from an #OAIPMH endpoint, would anyone want to use that? To do what?

Very interesting contribution by Miels Vander Sande at #semantics2023 on 'Managing the #metadata of a diverse digital media archive as a #knowledgegraph' #semanticweb #linkeddata #lod #metadata #iiif #oaipmh Slides: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/kzcp6k4hvjltxnm5orxoa/20230922_semantics.pdf?rlkey=fqxl08mhkk1wwrmz478tz3nak&dl=0 @mielvds

Just learned about Data Portal software #piveau https://piveau.de used at https://data.europa.eu and https://open.nrw among others. The RDF-based discovery interface can be used to harvest (e.g. via #OAIPMH) and present datasets published elsehere (e.g. via #CKAN).

It doesn't seem like anyone has mentioned #oaipmh recently so that seems like a good start.

If anyone wants to give this tool for harvesting metadata a spin feel free. - https://github.com/vphill/pyoaiharvester

Recently updated (very late in the game) to python3.
