Here are some notes about scope and assumptions for the migration of the OH microsite into the digital collections.
...
Migration:
We plan to migrate the following metadata elements from the Oral History microsite into the digital collections:
Interview
Sponsor field ⬅ correction: this was actually entered manually, and was not part of the migration.
Interviewee
Portrait
Birth and death
Date and place
Education
Date, Institution, degree, subject
Career
Start and end dates, institution, role
Awards
Date, award
Interviewer
Name
Profile
Connection between interview and profile
...
Careful: this means if you enter any data *manually* into any of the destination fields in the Digital Collections, that data will be replaced with fresh microsite data next time we run a migration.
Test plan
For a set of sample records, testers will want to check each item in the digital collections against its source in the microsite.
Sample records:
Interviews with multiple interviewees: Cole/Verma, Aitchisons, …
Interviews with multiple interviewers: Hay, Ehrlich, …
Interviews with FAST headings changed: Yi, …
Other outliers: Schoemaker, …
Metadata to check
Careful: don’t actually change the metadata in response to this test, as it will be overwritten anyway.
