OLE Instance Data Elements Detailed

OLE Instance documents are used to identify and describe library resources locally owned/licensed by libraries. They are loosely based on the MARC Format for Holdings Data (MFHD) and represents core elements that must be included when describing holdings and items.

Some business rules for the OLE Instance:

  • 1 Bibliographic Description must have at least 1 OLE Instance Collection.
  • 1 Bibliographic Description may have more than 1 OLE Instance Collection.
    • 1 Instance Collection must have at least 1 Instance Record.
    • 1 Instance Collection may have more than 1 Instance Record.
      • 1 Instance must contain 1 oleHolding or 1 sourceHolding.
      • 1 Instance must have at least 1 item.
      • 1 Instance may have more than 1 item.

(info) For more high level business rules, see OLE Instance Schema

We need to review the business rules from 0.6. If they're still up to date, we should move them to https://wiki.kuali.org/display/OLE/OLE+Instance+Document-V9.1

Instance

Element

Description

instance

The instance captures holdings and item information. Holdings can be recorded in either the general holdings section or specific holdings format in the sourceHoldings section. The flag "primary" on either holdings or the sourceHoldings tag indicates which holdings is being used. OLE will support MFHD and any other specific holdings format will need to be accounted for and implemented by the individual institutions. At any given time, either the general holdings or the sourceHoldings can be in use. The item information is also recorded and also maps to fields in the MFHD record. OLE will provide the conversion if an institution is using MFHD, bearing in mind that in such an event the location will only be limited to 3 levels.

instanceIdentifier

Unique system assigned identifier for the instance document.

resourceIdentifier

Bibliographic identifier from 001 in the marc record in OLE

formerResourceIdentifier

These are Identifiers from the legacy system for the bibliographic records that are stored in the 035 of the Marc record. Non-Editable that gets used at the time of linking bib records and instance records.

General holdings information for institutions not using specific source holdings

sourceHoldings

Specific holdings format

items
