Agenda with meeting notes:

Review final documentation
1. White paper: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ffCyIirUkESLefBehafbacsLb_Rq7KJbTxxeoQCyLpw/edit#
  1. Action items from last time:
    1. Outstanding & New
      1. Review all sections and be prepared to address any open comments from the document (all reviewers)
        <mods:subject> could use a another set of eyes
      2. Mapping issues
        <mods:location>
        No true "direct" option for <mods:physicalLocation>
        bf:heldBy does not allow literal
        Maybe OK, presumably orgs doing metadata in RDF will have a URI for themselves?
        Literal-friendly options:
        modsrdf:locationPhysical
        relator:own ("owner"; http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/own)
        relator:rps ("repository"; http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/rps)
        rdau:P60402 (http://rdaregistry.info/Elements/u/P60402)
        (defined as "has custodian": "Relates a resource to an agent having legal custody of a resource.")
        premis:hasContentLocationValue
        <mods:relatedItem>
        No true "direct" option for @type="host" representing physical collection
        dcterms:isPartOf does not allow literal
        dcterms:isPartOf also used by Hyrax for Admin Set membership
        Could use dbpedia-owl:collection for literal (http://dbpedia.org/ontology/collection)
        Other possibilities for URI-friendly predicates
        schema:isPartOf (https://bib.schema.org/isPartOf)
        dbpedia-owl:isPartOf (http://dbpedia.org/ontology/isPartOf)
        ore:isAggregatedBy (http://www.openarchives.org/ore/terms/isAggregatedBy)
        <mods:form> (part of <mods:physicalDescription>)
        Should we use edm:hasType instead of dcterms:format?
        <mods:subject>
        No true "direct" mapping for topical, name, and geographic subjects
        Could use dce:subject (topic, name) and dce:coverage (geographic)?
      3. Update namespaces table after mappings are all copied over (Emily)
      4. Document instances of prior polls and community feedback (e.g. identifiers) (all reviewers)
        title
        extent (https://goo.gl/forms/ROMklm8isWH3rKzK2 ???)
        identifier
        physical collection / digital collection / series (https://goo.gl/forms/Pl6a1ILMlWbMXLGV2)
        physical location / holding info (https://goo.gl/forms/KGymGD9dGURueF4o2)
      5. Monitor potential to mint predicates through Samvera URI WG (all)
      6. Style-related issues
        Update TOC to remove links to examples
        headings for elements consistent
        remove 'curly' quotation marks
        formatting for RDAU predicates – canonical URI (rdau:P60057) or lexical URI (rdau:preferredCitation.en)?
        lexical URIs more readable, but they don't resolve
        XML elements with long attribute value lists – spacing, indentation, etc.
      7. Review draft of email announcement and target reviewers/lists
Next meeting:
1. Monday March 19
