Hi Peter,
The new SOLR core for authority indexes supports that kind of JSON structure, although has to be linked, via an autorithy key, with a metadata field... We are using it for storing name variations, Authors ids, bio and some others fields

best luck

Hi All,

Has anyone stored nested / rich metadata in DSpace?

An example I'm thinking of is for storing richer amounts of metadata for an object. For example:

  * Author
      o first-name: Peter
      o last-name: Dietz
      o name-as-it-appears: Peter Dietz
      o institution: Longsight
      o date-of-birth: ...
      o ...
  * Author
      o first-name: Sam
      o last-name: Ottenhoff
      o ...

The Authority Control system of DSpace looks like it approaches this, but the documentation isn't clear, and I'm not sure if it requires that your data values reside in some Library of Congress registry.

The hack-job I have in mind would be to serialize the information... to json... and then store that into a metadata field.

So.
schema.author.serialized = {first-name: "Peter", last-name: "Dietz", "name-as-it-appears" : "Peter Dietz", "institution": "Longsight", ... }

However, I'm tempted to think that DSpace should either have the ability to plug into any registry (hopefully there are registries you can populate and maintain with your own local data), or to extend DSpace's metadata data model to support nested/rich data.

Thoughts?
