UWLibCatProfiles

Profiles for RDA cataloging in Sinopia, being developed locally at the University of Washington for use in the LD4P2 project. Web views of all Sinopia profiles currently in use at UW are available here (see "RDA profiles for cataloging in the Sinopia Linked Data Editor").

Naming Conventions for University of Washington Sinopia Profiles and Resource Templates

• All ID's start with WAU
  • Profile ID's start with WAU:profile
  • Resource template ID's start with WAU:RT
• Next is an abbreviation for the content standard or data model used primarily in the profile and resource template
  • Examples: WAU:profile:RDA[...], WAU:RT:RDA[...]
• Next is a term or multiple terms for the contents of the profile or resource template (this can include specific RDF classes and formats of materials being described by the resource and property templates)
  • Examples: WAU:profile:RDA:monograph, WAU:RT:RDA:Work:monograph

Note that:

• Terms for RDF classes described in resource templates (such as "Work") are always capitalized.
• Terms for formats described in a profile or resource template (such as "monograph") are controlled by a local schema and are never capitalized.
• Profiles and resource templates also have labels. Labels should exactly mirror ID's, but with spaces in place of colons.
  • Examples: "WAU profile RDA monograph", "WAU RT RDA Work monograph"
