Clickable hyperlinks in DSpace metadata

Page history last edited by Monica 3 years, 10 months ago

In general only include URL addresses in metadata when the URL uses a persistent identifier standard (such as DOIs or handles), or a service such as permacc for archived links (Perma.cc - LibGuides at Rice University).  This is to avoid issues of content drift or lost links over time and ensures long lasting references to works cited. One exception to the rule is for Woodson Research Center Finding Aids, which are manually migrated by archivists when needed.

 

Note: Only use one URL address per value (multiple URLs will not be clickable)

 

URL addresses found in metadata are clickable in the following scenarios. 

 


 

Pre-defined elements 

 

Any URL placed in these 3 elements is clickable by default. However, content must only include URL address, no additional text.

 

dc.rights.uri

dc.relations.uri

dc.description.uri

 

Note: dc.identifier.uri is also automatically clickable, but this is a system generated field that should not be edited. 

 

Rules/Patterns

URLs found within text that follows the below syntax.

 

Where the text string begins with -- http 

and ends with either:

-- a space

-- a period followed by a space

-- a comma followed by a space

-- a closing parenthesis symbol followed by a space

 

Notes:

  • Ending punctuation may or may not be included as part of the clickable URL.
  • Changes will take effect immediately upon save. 

 

Elements:

dc.rights

dc.relations.*

dc.description
