Via the link “Admin Area” the user reaches the DISMARC back end tools.

You can access the AAP’s back-end tools via the ‘Admin Area’. These tools are for the use of content contributors, translators and portal administrators.

The back end tools are mainly intended for content contributors, translators and portal administrators.
 
==The collection entry tool==
==The collection entry tool==
-
[[Image:coll-entry.jpg|thumb|none|The collection entry tool]] This tool allows the entering of collection descriptions based on the [[DISMARC Metadata (Collections)|DISMARC collection application profile]]. The collection description might also be send via the mapping tool.
+
[[Image:coll-entry.jpg|thumb|none|The collection entry tool]]
-
 
+
This tool allows the entering of collection descriptions based on the DISMARC collection application profile, which is in turn based on the Dublin Core Collection Description Application profile, formally approved by the DCMI Usage Board in April 2007. DISMARC has enhanced several of the descriptions (including place, coverage cultural, instruments) within this specification. If archives do not own digital metadata catalogues, they can create a digital catalogue here, using this tool.
-
The format of the collection description is based on the Dublin Core Collection Description Application profile which was formally approved by the DCMI Usage Board in April 2007.
+
-
DISMARC has slightly enhanced the description (place, coverage cultural, instruments…).
+
-
>The collection descriptions may be [[Advanced Search|searched]] separately in the DISMARC platform. If archives do not own digital metadata catalogues that can be imported to DISMARC they may enter the platform only with the description of their collection.
+
-
For being allowed to enter a collection description the user must be registered to the DISMARC platform.
+
-
 
+
-
The entry tool shows all available metadata fields for describing a collection. Those marked with * should be filled in primarily.
+
-
 
+
-
[…] leads to an index scan for this field. The user may adopt a term of the index into the entry form.
+
-
 
+
-
[ T ] Opens the referring thesaurus of this field in a separate window. The user may select a term from the thesaurus for the description.
+
-
 
+
-
All metadata fields may be duplicated. Use [ + ] for duplication and [ - ] for deleting a field.
+
-
IMPORTANT: In the Place field the user should first enter the country (with the role: place of storage), than duplicate the field and enter the address.
+
For security, only registered content owners can enter collection descriptions. Please send an email request to info@DISMARC.eu if you want to add your collection.
-
The fields “IPR License” and “IPR Email Contact” are used by the IPR basket tool. The archive may write standardized license texts in to the field “IPR License”. They will be sent to the email address given in the field “IPR Email Contact” together with the licensing request of a user.
+
The tool shows all available metadata fields used to describe a collection. Those marked with * are the most important terms.
-
The following standard text modules have been prepared by the Finish partner YLE:
+
The entry […] leads to an index scan of all possible entries for the particular field. You may use one of the presented terms. <br>
 +
• First select a vocabulary from the drop-down menu below the entry field. Then click on [T] to open the selected thesaurus for the particular field. You can select a term from the thesaurus for the description.<br>
 +
• Use [+] to add and [-] to delete a metadata field as necessary. <br>
 +
• Next to the field “Europeana Rights” is a copyright symbol [©], which leads to the license selection tools.<br>

• The fields ‘IPR License’ and ‘IPR Email Contact’ are used by the IPR basket tool. The content-owner can optionally insert a template response text in the ‘IPR License’ field. This will be sent to the email address given in the ‘IPR Email Contact’ field when a user requests use of material. <br>

The collection entry tool

This tool allows the entering of collection descriptions based on the DISMARC collection application profile, which is in turn based on the Dublin Core Collection Description Application profile, formally approved by the DCMI Usage Board in April 2007. DISMARC has enhanced several of the descriptions (including place, coverage cultural, instruments) within this specification. If archives do not own digital metadata catalogues, they can create a digital catalogue here, using this tool.

For security, only registered content owners can enter collection descriptions. Please send an email request to info@DISMARC.eu if you want to add your collection.

The tool shows all available metadata fields used to describe a collection. Those marked with * are the most important terms.

• The entry […] leads to an index scan of all possible entries for the particular field. You may use one of the presented terms.
• First select a vocabulary from the drop-down menu below the entry field. Then click on [T] to open the selected thesaurus for the particular field. You can select a term from the thesaurus for the description.
• Use [+] to add and [-] to delete a metadata field as necessary.
• Next to the field “Europeana Rights” is a copyright symbol [©], which leads to the license selection tools.

• In the ‘Place’ field, you should first enter the country where the collection is stored (use the drop-down ‘role’ menu to select ‘storage’), then duplicate the field and enter the postal address.
• The fields ‘IPR License’ and ‘IPR Email Contact’ are used by the IPR basket tool. The content-owner can optionally insert a template response text in the ‘IPR License’ field. This will be sent to the email address given in the ‘IPR Email Contact’ field when a user requests use of material.
• In the field “Europeana Source Name” the content owner should enter the official name of his/her institution. This name will then be displayed in Europeana in its ‘Data provider’ field.

User administration

We manage users and user groups very carefully to guarantee the security and reliability of the platform. Administration of user profiles is described in portal personalisation features.

The administrator can consult the user list and change user profiles. The administrator may also create new user groups. Registered users see only the ‘Edit my profile’ part of this tool - administration of user profiles is described in portal personalisation features.

This tool supports the translation of the terms used in the AAP portal. The tool is only available to the ‘translators’ user group.

List Thesauri

The “List Thesauri” tool is used by the administrator of the DISMARC system to add vocabularies to the platform.

All DISMARC thesauri are available and integrated as web services.

List Browse

With this tool the Portal administrator manages the tabs for browsing DISMARC.

The administrator may choose which data field should be offered for the browsing function.
