Controlling the Production of EAD Encoded Documents, Extracting Metadata and Publishing Them on the Web: Methods and Tools, France
Clavaud, Florence; Sevigny, Martin
Journal of Archival Organization, v3 n2-3 p147-169 2005
This article presents four projects geared towards providing the community of EAD users with methods and tools to control the quality of archival finding aids, to extract metadata from them in Dublin Core and qualified Dublin Core for use in OAI-PMH repositories, and to publish them on the Web along with the digital images produced by digitization of the material described. The first two projects were conducted in 2004 by the Centre Historique des Archives Nationales together with AJLSM and resulted in the writing of reports and programs. The other projects are PLEADE and Navimages, which consist of open source applications that allow the building of Web-based search and viewing applications. All these tools can be used by archivists to create a complete publishing suite. (Contains 3 figures and 29 notes.)
