About
The Scholarly Object (SO) standard is a locally created schema to define the scholarly objects in the DRS. It is used by Hydra to query SO deposits to display in the feature list on the home page, as well as in departmental smart folders. The department name is not mandatory for each node because most SO's are tied to the faculty member who submitted the object (these objects are associated to a department through the faculty member's association). Therefore, Datasets, Presentations, and Research Publication nodes will appear rather sparse. Learning Objects and Theses and Dissertations nodes have a few more defining fields. For more information about how Scholarly Object are defined and used in the DRS, see the Scholarly Objects metadata page
Elements and Attributes
