How to Use Multiple identifier fields may be created as needed for local use, such as call number, filename, etc.

However, only the identifier that contains the URI leading back to the resource should be mapped to dcterms:identifier because of the possibility of confusion for harvesters. Handle these additional identifiers one of three ways: map the field to “None”; map it to some other field besides dcterms:identifier; or begin the value of the field with something other than a URI scheme.

Digital asset management systems (DAMS) may format identifier differently; these are examples from various systems used in the MWDL community as of this writing:

Refines/Refinement None
Schemes None
DC Mapping dcterms:identifier
MARC Mapping 347 subfield 1 or 856 subfield u
MODS Mapping identifier
