This is solved in our addons for images (for example digitalized books) or pdf visualization but it can be also generalized to other kind of materials. We use items with multiple bitstreams with enriched metadata.
See https://dspace-cris.4science.it/handle/123456789/40 https://dspace-cris.4science.it/explore?bitstream_id=202&handle=123456789/40&provider=iiif-image on the left panel you have two view Index and Thumbnails, if you click on Index your will see the Table of Content of the book. This is actually a metadata stored at the single bitstream level (a single image/page). On the right panel if you click on More information you will get the metadata from the item (book) but it is also possible to include other metadata related to the current page (maybe the image size, resolution, some notes, etc.). These addons are developed as part of our make-IT-open campaign, see http://www.4science.it/en/dspace-add-ons/ http://www.4science.it/en/document-viewer/ http://www.4science.it/en/iiif-image-viewer/ we looks for supporters to improve the addons adding the advanced features listed in our roadmap and ultimatelyrelease as open source.

For the project you describe, I think that this sounds like a great way to show the pages of the notebook in their original context, yet include additional metadata for each page.

For example, a field notebook with many pages. We consider it very important for the metadata for each individual page to be made available. We have considered making each page its own item for that reason but feel that would be unwieldy because of quantity and while we would record the information about the book it belongs to in dc.relations fields, it will be harder for the user to see the relational context because the records between the pages will not actually be linked. Therefore, we are thinking of making the "item" be the field notebook as a whole and adding bitstreams for the whole field notebook as a pdf and a csv file of the metadata for each individual page. Any thoughts are appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Community" group.
