Joint Steering Committee for Development of RDA Alan Danskin, Chair, JSC RDA Element analysis Related document: 5JSC/RDA/Scope/Rev/4

The RDA Element Analysis (including both the table and the accompanying notes) provides a detailed analysis of the relationship between RDA and the two metadata models that are referenced in the RDA Scope and Structure document (i.e., The <indecs> Metadata Framework, and the DCMI Abstract Model). It is designed to provide detail on the general statements that are made in section 1.5 of the Scope and structure document (on the relationship of RDA elements to the generic attribute types defined in The <indecs> Metadata Framework), and in sections 1.6 and 1.7 (on the relationship of RDA elements to various constructs defined in the DCMI Abstract Model).

RDA Element Analysis

The attached table provides an analysis of each element, element sub-type, and subelement specified in RDA vis vis the generic attribute types defined in The <indecs> Metadata Framework 1 and the components and constructs specified in the DCMI Abstract Model 2 . 1. Layout of the table The table layout is as follows: Column A lists the RDA elements (i.e., elements, element sub-types, and sub-elements) in the order in which they appear in the final draft of RDA. Column B identifies the classification of the element (i.e., as an element, an element sub-type, or a sub-element). Column C identifies the generic attribute type reflected by the element as defined in The <indecs> Metadata Framework (i.e., label, quantity, quality, type, or role). Column D identifies the domain (or class of resource) to which the element applies (i.e., work, expression, manifestation, or item, person, family, corporate body, concept, object, event, or place). 3 Column E identifies the category of value surrogate used to record the element (i.e., literal or non-literal). Column F identifies the category of value string used to record the element (i.e., plain or typed). Column G identifies the syntax encoding scheme specified for an element that is recorded using a typed value string. (Syntax encoding schemes identified as RDA refer to the syntax specifications given in the RDA instructions on recording the element.) Column H identifies the vocabulary encoding scheme specified for an element that is recorded using a non-literal value surrogate. (Vocabulary encoding schemes identified as RDA refer to the controlled lists of terms given in the RDA instructions on recording the element.)

2. RDA encoding conventions The RDA encoding conventions described below are designed to ensure that the encoding of RDA data meets the requirements of well-formed metadata. Specifically, the aim is to ensure that: a) the encoding conventions conform to established models for metadata schema; and b) values are encoded according to the rules of a defined namespace, or, where applicable, a controlled vocabulary. The conventions used to encode RDA elements in a syntax that is compliant with both RDF specifications and the DCMI Abstract Model are described below according to the generic attribute type reflected by the element (i.e., label, quantity, quality, type, or role). The conventions are described both in textual form and in the form of graphs. In the graphs, a resource (e.g., an instance of manifestation) is represented by an oval containing a resource URI reference; a labeled arrow represents an element (i.e., property) used to describe that resource (e.g., a title proper); and a rectangle represents a value string used to represent or encode a value. A value URI is represented by an oval containing a value URI reference; a vocabulary encoding scheme is represented by an oval containing a vocabulary encoding scheme URI reference. 2.1 Labels A label is a string whose function is to distinguish one entity from another (e.g., identifiers, names, titles). A label that that consists of a simple string (e.g., a title, a statement of responsibility, etc.) is encoded as a literal value surrogate using either a plain or typed value string.

[resource URIref]

rda:title_proper

[plain value string]

A label that consists of a composite string (e.g., a publication statement, a series statement, etc.) is encoded using a blank node to represent the aggregate label (i.e., the element), linked to literal value surrogates using either plain or typed value strings for each of the components of the label (i.e., each of the sub-elements).

[resource URIref] [plain value string]

rda:publication_ statement

rda:publisher _name rda:place_of _publication

[plain value string]

rda:date_of _publication

[plain value string]

2.2 Quantities A quantity is a number measuring some aspect of an entity (e.g., extent, dimensions, duration). A quantity is generally represented by a non-literal value surrogate using a typed value string with an associated syntax encoding scheme.

[resource URIref]

rda:extent

[typed value string]^^[syntax encoding scheme]

The syntax encoding scheme associated with a quantity is normally an RDA syntax encoding scheme (i.e., one that is specified within the RDA schema). If there is no syntax encoding scheme specified for a quantity within RDA (e.g.,additional scale information), the quantity is represented by a non-literal value surrogate using a plain value string.

[resource URIref]

rda: additional_scale

[plain value string]

5JSC/RDA/Element analysis/Rev/3 1 July 2009 4

In certain cases (e.g., horizontal scale of cartographic content), a quantity may be represented by a non-literal value surrogate using a value URI reference that has an associated plain value string and vocabulary encoding scheme.

[resource URIref]

rda:scale

[plain value string]

[value URIref]

[vocabulary encoding scheme URIref]

2.3 Qualities A quality is a characteristic of the structure or nature of an entity (e.g., colour, language, gender). A quality is generally represented by a non-literal value surrogate using a value URI reference that has an associated plain value string and vocabulary encoding scheme.

[resource URIref] [plain value string] rda:base_material

[value URIref]

[vocabulary encoding scheme URIref]

The vocabulary encoding scheme associated with a quality is normally an RDA vocabulary encoding scheme (i.e., one that is specified within the RDA schema). However, RDA makes allowance for the use of terms from external vocabulary encoding schemes, provided the vocabulary encoding scheme that is used is identified.

5JSC/RDA/Element analysis/Rev/3 1 July 2009 5


In cases where the value is not covered by an RDA vocabulary encoding scheme, or is more specific than a value covered by the relevant RDA vocabulary encoding scheme, it may be represented simply by a non-literal value surrogate using a plain value string.

[URIref]

rda:base_material

[plain value string]

2.4 Types A type is a categorization of one or more characteristics of an entity (e.g., media type, carrier type, content type). A type is represented by a non-literal value surrogate using a value URI reference that has an associated plain value string and vocabulary encoding scheme.

[resource URIref] [plain value string] rda:carrier _type

[value URIref]

[vocabulary encoding scheme URIref]

The vocabulary encoding scheme associated with a type is normally an RDA vocabulary encoding scheme (i.e., one that is specified within the RDA schema). The four elements currently defined as types in RDA (mode of issuance, media type, carrier type, and content type) are all based on the RDA/ONIX Framework for Resource Categorization. 4 2.5 Roles

RDA/ONIX Framework for Resource Categorization, version 1.0 (Released August 1, 2006), http://www.rda-jsc.org/working2.html#chair-10.

5JSC/RDA/Element analysis/Rev/3 1 July 2009 6


A role is a part played or function fulfilled by an entity in relation to another entity or entities (e.g., the function performed by a person, family, or corporate body in relation to the content of a resource). 5 A role may represented in any one of following ways: a) by a non-literal value surrogate using a resource URI reference for the related resource

[resource URIref]

rda:expression_m anifested

[resource URIref]

b) by a non-literal value surrogate using a typed value string formulated according to an RDA syntax encoding scheme for a controlled access point

[resource URIref]

rda:creator

[typed value string]^^[syntax encoding scheme]

c) by a non-literal value surrogate using a blank node to represent the related resource, linked to plain and/or typed value strings to provide a structured description of the related resource

[resource URIref]

rda: related_manifest ation

[plain value string] rda:title_proper rda:publisher _name

[plain value string]

The term role is used here as defined in Indecs, and includes all associations categorized as relationships in FRBR and FRAD, as distinguished from the narrower sense in which role is used in RDA (i.e., only to designate a relationship between a resource and a person, family, or corporate body associated with the resource).

3. Outstanding issues Assumptions In reviewing the issues noted below, JSC should bear in mind the following assumptions relating to the encoding of RDA data:
a) that the encoding conventions described above and listed in the

accompanying table will apply only when RDA data is being exported or "exposed" in an encoding syntax that is compliant with RDF and the DCMI Abstract Model; b) that an agency creating RDA data may either encode and store it in that same encoding syntax, or encode and store it in another encoding syntax (such as MARC 21) and convert it to the RDF/DCMI-compliant syntax for purposes of exporting or exposing it in that syntax; and c) that when RDA data created and stored internally in another metadata format is exported or exposed in an RDF/DCMI-compliant syntax, there may be some loss of detail. 3.1 Domains The majority of elements defined in RDA are associated with a single domain (as identified in column D). There are a number of elements, however, that may be associated with more than one of the eleven domains currently defined for the elements covered in RDA. Among such elements are the following: extent (which is normally associated with a manifestation but in certain cases may be associated with an expression); dimensions (which is normally associated with a manifestation but may in some cases may be associated with an item); relationship designator (which may be associated with a person, family, corporate body, work, expression, manifestation, item, concept, object, event, or place); and various elements for related entities (which may be associated with any one of a number of entities).

5JSC/RDA/Element analysis/Rev/3 1 July 2009 8


RDF specifications indicate that identifying more than one domain for an element is to be interpreted using a Boolean AND (i.e., that all instances of the element must be members of both domains). As a result, there is no domain identified in column D for elements that may be associated with more than one domain. Although it is not a requirement to specify a domain for every element, it would be possible to specify one for some of those elements that may be associated with more than one of the entity types currently defined for RDA, if new entity types were defined to represent combinations of existing entity types. For example, a single entity type could be defined to represent the four FRBR group 1 entities (i.e., work, expression, manifestation, or item) collectively. Further assessment is needed to determine whether the definition of such entity types is warranted. 3.2 Notes The elements identified in earlier drafts of RDA as notes on and treated as element sub-types under title, statement of responsibility, etc., have been transferred to a new element for note. In general, notes are used to record information that falls outside the defined scope of the element that the note references, but is related to that element (e.g., Title devised by cataloguer, Title varies slightly). Using the conventions described above, it is not possible to link a note directly to the instance of the element to which it relates if the related element is encoded simply as a literal value surrogate using a plain or typed value string. If it is determined that a mechanism for providing a direct link between a note and the instance of the element to which it relates is required, it would be advisable to encode all instances of that element using that mechanism, whether or not a link to a note is required in a particular instance. For example, if it is determined that a mechanism for linking a note on title directly to the instance of the title element to which it relates may be required in some instances, then all instances of the title element should be encoded using a non-literal surrogate that would permit such a link rather than simply using a literal surrogate if a link to a note was not required in that instance. Further assessment is needed to determine whether the conventions for encoding notes and the elements that may have an associated note in some instances need to be adjusted to permit a direct link between a note and the instance of an element to which it relates. 3.3 Language, script, and transliteration scheme associated with a value surrogate When applying the conventions described under 2.1 above, labels are represented as literal value surrogates using either plain or typed value strings (linked either directly to the node containing the resource URI reference or indirectly through a blank node). RDF provides a mechanism to identify the language of a plain value string (using an ISO language tag/subtag), but provides no mechanism to explicitly identify script of the string independently of language, or to identify the scheme used to transliterate a string from one script to another.

5JSC/RDA/Element analysis/Rev/3 1 July 2009 9


In order to identify the script and transliteration scheme associated with a value string, a different convention would have to be used, introducing an intermediary node to link the string with value URI references for script and transliteration scheme (as applicable). However, if that convention were used, it would be advisable to use it for all instances of any element to which it could apply, regardless of whether the identification of script or transliteration scheme was actually required in any particular instance. Further assessment is needed to determine whether the conventions for encoding elements for which the identification of script and transliteration might be required in certain instances need to be adjusted to permit the identification of those attributes of a string.
