The meatadata is basically DC with slight modification and called RIAN_DC (to confirm with Ireland’s national portal for oai harvesting <a href="http://www.rian.ie/">http://www.rian.ie/</a>) in the previous versions we had achieved this by creating a plugin in which we did:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Created two files called <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>OAI_RIAN_DC.pm <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>OAI_RIAN_Export.pm<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>At ......./perl_lib/EPrints/Plugin/Export/<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The OAI_RIAN_DC.pm was based on OAI_DC.pm except for the name change and in OAI_RIAN_Export.pm we had defined our export format.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>And within oai.pl I had simply added a new metadata format as<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>"rian_dc" => "OAI_RIAN_DC"<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Along with other formats.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>All of this had allowed us to expose our metadata in our format called “rian_dc” which would then be harvested by rian.ie.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I am trying to do the same in 3.3.12 and that does not quite work.
