In the admin sidebar, go to Registries > Metadata then click on dc (probably 
the first in the list).  You can define metadata fields there.

Subject: [dspace-tech] How to add metadata term not available in Edit Item > 
Metadata > Add dropdown list?

Hello,

The Scholarly Communication Librarian at my university would like to add a link 
to a dataset referenced by an article to that article's metadata record in 
DSpace.  She would like to use dc.relation.references .

Unfortunately, dc.relation.references does not appear in the dropdown, ie:
[MetadataAdding_060325.png]
A couple of questions:
(1) Are the options for the dropdown menu being pulled from an external source, 
like a standards document?
(2) If the options aren't being pulled from an external source, where can they 
be defined in DSpace, and was there a reason dc.relation.references wasn't 
added to the list of options?

Thanks,
Carolyn.
