Agenda:

1. Formatting for final documents
   1. Google Sheets, Excel docs, wiki pages, Github repo?
   2. White paper: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ffCyIirUkESLefBehafbacsLb_Rq7KJbTxxeoQCyLpw/edit#heading=h.7y094mt5y4wo
      1. Still needs to be finalized
      2. Links to final documents added once we have finished
         
         
2. Collaboration Documents spreadsheet review and clean-up: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jhguUHc4ZbzhOwCvLppReepMu4pW3aNIdAkGQs4xA60/edit#gid=0 - Items listed as "Draft" or "Draft; under review":
   
   1. relatedItem Other Use Cases (MODS Individual Mappings for Other Related Item Cases)
      
      1. Eben created mappings under "Combined examples" (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tIfRsy47jt77VtHd3oTIcb89VdVSVftXVSKg_A0yqio/edit#gid=0)
         
      2. Outstanding issues:
         
         1. Items from conferences (papers, posters, video, etc.)
            1. Use one of the below?
               
               1. event:producedIn, ebucore:eventName, bibo:presentedAt, swc:relatedToEvent
            2. Use MARC relator term? (human-readable list here: https://www.loc.gov/marc/relators/relaterm.html)
               
               1. Host institution, Issuing body, Organizer, Sponsor, Supporting host
                  
                  
   2. name
      
      1. opaque:nameOrder
         1. Format for delimited string seems to have most support, how should it be formatted?
            
            
   3. subject
      1. Temporal - temporal examples in lines 22-26. One approach: turn anything that CAN be turned into specific dates INTO those dates, formatted using EDM timespan. Maybe use dce:coverage to accept number values, then dcterms temporal to accept strings (e.g., French Revolution). More discussion next call.
         
         
   4. recordInfo
      1. Homework: for those institutions that have these use cases, research alternate predicates for original/external record creation and change dates (distinct from Fedora activity)
         
         
   5. Classes for minted objects
      1. Outstanding issues/questions:
         1. subjects: skos:Concept or madsrdf:Topic?
         2. bibliographic series: bibframelite:Series or opaque:bibliographicSeries?
         3. double-check for missing classes
