  • Formatting was changed.
  • Some properties are specified by DCMI to have only non-­literal values but EDM allows literals. This is inherited from ESE and must to continue for the time being. A solution would be to “dumb‐down” such properties to their original dc super‐property as the original dc properties (v1.1) still allow literals. For example, all the DC properties that are sub-­properties of dc:relation (e.g. dcterms:isVersionOf) would be mapped to dc:relation if the values were literals. This would entail considerable semantic loss however

  • Definition of edm:hasType in the EDM specification implies that it is for “What” questions in the portal by acting as an umbrella super-property for dc:type and format (and possibly others). It therefore has the domain of Europeana CHOs and range of Concepts. It has however also been included in the edm:Event class to allow the typing of Event entities
