A digest of information about new or edited files will be compiled and sent to the DRS Metadata email list the day after activity is logged in a Smart Collection ("Theses and Dissertations", "Research Publications", "Other Publications", "Presentations", or "Datasets"). This primary purpose of this notification is to keep track of metadata changes and to track user and proxy activity in scholarly collections.

New Files

A new file notification will be triggered when a faculty member deposits a file to one of his or her Smart Collections (Research Publications, Other Publications, Presentations, or Datasets), or library proxy staff deposits on his or her behalf.

Updated Files

An updated file notification will be triggered when someone edits a file in one of the system generated Smart Collections (ETDs, Research Publications, Other Publications, Presentations, or Datasets) using the "Edit" tab on the files details page.

Who could have triggered this notification?

• The faculty member to whom the file belongs.
• A library staff member with proxy privileges (list current as of March 27, 2015)

Hillary Corbett
Larry Hibbler (Law)
Sarah Jean Sweeney

• A DRS staff member (list current as of March 27, 2015)

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

A notification will be sent to the DRS Metadata email address when metadata for a DRS object is edited using the XML editor tool. The old and new MODS xml files will be attached to the email for comparison. A quick way to view the difference between the old and new metadata files it to visit https://www.diffchecker.com, drag the old and new files into the separate boxes, and click "Find Difference!". The unique sections will be highlighted in red and green.

This tool is being actively used by DRS staff, Metadata staff, and Archives staff (list current as of March 27, 2015):
