Background

ETDs from ProQuest can have a variety of files and file types.  Each file will need a separate DRS Object and be assinged a 'Role' in DRS.

For example, a ProQuest ETD could have the following files

• Thesis in PDF format
• Mets.xml file
• License files in PDF (or other) formats
• Supplementary files, such as thesis appendices, data sets, videos, etc,. in a variety of formats

Preparing a batch

• Get the file information for all files from the mets.xml FileSec
• Filename
• Mime-type
• Use category - CONTENT or LICENSE
• AMDID - amd_primary, amd_supplemental, amd_license 
• Create Object OSNs based on ProQuest ID, school code and Role
• Create File OSNs based on ProQuest ID and Role
• Create mapping.txt file to associate files with appropriate Object OSN and File OSN
• Locate the MARCXML file for the ETD and generate a MODS file
• Get DASH URN from MARCXML if present
• Get Alma MMSID by using query with ProQuestETD ID
  

Create an object for each file

• Content Model based on file Mime-type
• Role based on Use category and AMDID
• Primary PDF thesis gets ROLE=THESIS
• Other files in CONTENT group get ROLE=THESIS_SUPPLEMENT
• Files in ‘LICENSE’ group get ROLE=LICENSE
• Mets.xml file gets ROLE=DOCUMENTATION
• File with ROLE=THESIS gets MODS descriptive metadata

Add relationships and Harvard Metadata inks to THESIS Object

• Has_supplement
• Has_licence
• Has _documentation
• HOLLIS link based on MMSID
• DASH link based on DASH ID
