Add Institutional Repository Content to Primo: A How-to Guide
Session Abstract
The objective of this session is to provide a cookbook for ingesting institutional repository content from OAI-PMH or XML data sources into Primo.
Attendees will learn from my experience ingesting content from 3 different sources: institutional repository records from bepress Digital Commons and Islandora; and art and museum collection records from EmbARK.
Attendees will learn the steps required to ingest content from IR sources including creating data sources, scopes, and pipes, and adjusting normalization rules and mapping tables. I will also discuss troubleshooting harvest errors and data issues. I will compare harvesting from OAI-PMH vs. XML files.
At the conclusion of the session, attendees will be familiar with the steps required to ingest OAI-PMH and XML content into Primo and perform some troubleshooting of the process.
