Rebecca--
Do you have a MODS to qualified DC crosswalk that you would recommend, or
vice versa?
We are implementing an institutional repository software that supports
qualified DC, and which allows us to create "local" fields. I am trying to
determine which MODS fields map to which unqualified DC fields, and what's
left over after that. I expect to create local fields to cover the rest,
so that our online displayed metadata will actually be a mix of the two.
Thank you!
