Data Catalogs, Metadata, And Data Discovery: How Data Catalogs Extend And Enhance The Ir Ecosystem, Anthony Dellureficio Nov 2021

Data Catalogs, Metadata, And Data Discovery: How Data Catalogs Extend And Enhance The Ir Ecosystem, Anthony Dellureficio

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

Data catalogs contain metadata-only records for datasets, code, analytical tools, or other research outputs not traditionally included in bibliographic catalogs. The records include curated, enhanced descriptive metadata in order to supply additional access points, provide access instructions or explain data restrictions, connect researchers working on common topics, connect datasets with relevant analytical tools, track publications and funding associated with datasets, and highlight otherwise undiscoverable datasets while still accommodating concerns over PHI exposure. The Data Discovery Collaboration (DDC), a multi-institutional consortium providing a platform-agnostic community of practice to support research data discoverability through metadata, outreach, and software development, is focusing on …

Dspace Information Retrieval System: A Study Using Dicom Metadata Standard, Hirak Jyoti Hazarika, Dr. S. Ravikumar, Dr. Akash Handique

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

The present paper talks about the use of institutional repository software (DSpace) in archiving DICOM images. In the current study, the authors have tried to integrate the DICOM metadata standard with DSpace, which was compatible with DC & OAI PMH. After integrating the DICOM standard with DSpace, and the repository tested with a sample of ten thousand images, the retrieval results using various DICOM tags was very satisfactory. This study paves for the use of OSS in storing and retrieving medical images. Digital Image Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard has become a centre component for making an application nonpartisan …


Participatory Prototype Design: Developing A Sustainable Metadata Curation Workflow For Maternal Child Health Research, Amanda Harrigan, Saurabh Vashishtha, Sharon Farnel, Kendall Roark May 2017

Participatory Prototype Design: Developing A Sustainable Metadata Curation Workflow For Maternal Child Health Research, Amanda Harrigan, Saurabh Vashishtha, Sharon Farnel, Kendall Roark

Libraries Faculty and Staff Scholarship and Research

This paper describes the findings from a participatory prototype design project, where the authors worked with maternal and child health (MCH) researchers and stakeholders to develop a MCH metadata profile and sustainable curation workflow. This work led to the development of three prototypes: 1) a study catalogue hosted in Dataverse, 2) a metadata and research records repository hosted in REDCap and 3) a metadata harvesting tool/dashboard hosted within the Shiny RStudio environment. We present a brief overview of the methods used to develop the metadata profile, curation workflow and prototypes. Researchers and other stakeholders were participant-collaborators throughout the project. The …
