+ | ====== Enriching Your Collection with Metadata ====== | ||
+ | Having gathered several files into the collection, you can now enrich them with additional information called " | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== The Enrich Panel ===== | ||
+ | Use the Enrich panel to assign metadata to the documents in the collection. Metadata is data about data -- typically title, author, creation date, and so on. Each metadata item has two parts: Element tells what kind of item it is (such as author), and Value gives the value of that metadata element (such as the author' | ||
+ | |||
+ | On the left of the Enrich view is the Collection Tree. All the right-click functionality that was available for the Collection Tree in the Gather panel is available here too. To the right is the Metadata Table, which shows metadata for any selected files or folders in the Collection Tree. Columns are named in black at the top, and can be resized by dragging the separating line. If several files or folders are selected, black text indicates that the value is common to all of the selected items, while grey text indicates that it is not. Editing grey values will only affect those documents with that metadata. Any new metadata values entered will be added to all selected items. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A folder icon may appear beside some metadata entries. | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Metadata Sets ===== | ||
+ | All metadata fields in Greenstone belong to a //metadata set//, which is simply a pre-defined collection of metadata fields. Because sets will often have metadata fields with the same name (for instance, most sets will have a ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | The default metadata sets for new collections are Dublin Core (dc), the Greenstone Metadata Sset (gs), and the Extracted Greenstone Metadata Set (ex). The **Extracted set** is unique because it contains metadata automatically generated during the collection building process and cannot be edited. Metadata values in this set cannot be modified (as it is extracted from the documents themselves), | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can change which metadata sets are used in a collection by clicking the Manage Metadata Sets button underneath the Collection Tree in the Enrich view. This brings up a new window for managing the collection' | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Current Sets list shows you what sets are currently used by the collection. | ||
+ | |||
+ | To use another metadata set with the loaded collection, click " | ||
+ | |||
+ | To create a new metadata set, click " | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | If a collection no longer needs a metadata set, select it and press " | ||
+ | |||
+ | For a list of the metadata sets that come with Greenstone, as well as information on how to create/add new metadata sets, visit the [[en: | ||
+ | ===== Adding metadata ===== | ||
+ | To add metadata to a document, first select the file from the Collection file tree on the left. The action causes any metadata previously assigned to this file to appear in the table at the right. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Next select the metadata element you want to add by clicking its row in the table. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Type the value into the value field. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can also add metadata to a folder, or to several multiply selected files at once. It is added to all files within the folder or selection, and to child folders. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Adding Previously Defined Metadata ===== | ||
+ | To add metadata that has an existing value, first select the file, then select the metadata element that you are assigning to, then select the required value from the value tree, expanding hierarchy folders as necessary. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The process of adding metadata with already-existing values to folders or multiple files is just the same. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Editing or Removing Metadata ===== | ||
+ | To edit or remove a piece of metadata, first select the appropriate file, and then the metadata value from the table. Edit the value field, deleting all text if you wish to remove the metadata. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The process is the same when updating a folder with child folders or multiple files, but you can only update metadata that is common to all files/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | The value tree shows all currently assigned values as well as previous values for the current session, so changed or deleted values will remain in the tree. Closing the collection and then re-opening it will remove all values that are no longer assigned. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Reviewing Assigned Metadata ===== | ||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | When it gets too large, you can filter the "All Metadata" | ||
+ | |||
+ | The filter prompt has a " | ||
+ | |||
+ | For example, to sort the "All Metadata" | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Importing Previously Assigned Metadata ===== | ||
+ | This section describes how to import previously assigned metadata: metadata assigned to documents before they were added to the collection. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If a document has some assigned metadata in a form recognized by the Librarian Interface (i.e. in a metadata.xml file in the same folder as the document) -- for example, when you choose documents from an existing Greenstone collection -- it is imported automatically when you add the document to a (new) collection. Greenstone will recognize the '' | ||
+ | |||
+ | To import the metadata, the metadata must be mapped to the metadata sets available in the collection. The Librarian Interface prompts for the necessary information. | ||
