Note that the entity includes data from Zoho CRM, enriched with additional information available for this organisation in Wikidata.

...

Over the years, we have created records in Zoho CRM for our existing data partners. These records include information such as the organisation's name in its original language and English translation, website, location, and more. Going forward, we aim to rely on aggregators for gathering information about new data providers. As you are in direct contact with your providers, you can ensure they are represented in Europeana with accurate and up-to-date information. We have included a spreadsheet in the Jira submission form for new datasets, and we ask you to fill it in for all new providers. This will allow us to import information from the spreadsheet to the Zoho CRM and to create an entity for any new organisation based on the provided details.

...

To ensure successful enrichment, all providers should make sure to supply correct information about providing organisations in relevant EDM fields:

Information Organisation can either be provided as a literal value or URI:

Datatype

Example

Keep in mind

Literal value

[Name of providing organisation in its original language or English,

acronyms are also accepted]

<edm:dataProvider>Naturalis Biodiversity Center</edm:dataProvider>

Tip

Ensure that the values provided in the data match those supplied in the spreadsheet.

When submitting multiple datasets from the same organisation, please maintain consistency by using the same names for the same organisations.If there have been changes to the organisation names, please inform us promptly so we can make the necessary updates.

URI

[Vocabulary URIs and persistent identifiers (PID) for organisations,

as well as Europeana organisation entity URI]

<edm:dataProvider rdf:resource="http://data.europeana.eu/organization/4513"/>

In addition to the Europeana organisation entity, other appropriate URIs include (note this list is not exhaustive):

  • Virtual International Authority File (VIAF): http://viaf.org/viaf/[ENTITY_ID]

  • The Research Organization Registry (ROR): https://ror.org/[ENTITY_ID]

  • Wikidata: http://www.wikidata.org/entity/[ENTITY_ID]

Tip

Ensure you provide the correct URI pattern and notify Europeana by either recording the URI in the spreadsheet in SameAs column or add a URI in of the spreadsheet or adding it to the Data providerProvider field in the Jira submission form so that we can . This allows us to record it in Zoho CRM.

If you are supplying Currently, you can only supply a Europeana entity URI , it is necessary for existing data providers. If you wish to do so, you will need to know the Europeana identifier for the organisation, which is the last part of the entity URI: http://data.europeana.eu/organization/[ENTITY_ID]
