2 Figure 1. Public Profile View - Unclaimed Collection - Notes Summary This is the public view of a Collection Profile which has just been created and updated by a single user. No user is currently logged in for this view. Core Profile Information. This includes the minimal set of information on a collection (collection name and URL) along with optional information (collection image, description, categories). We call this level of description the minimal viable collection profile. It is the minimum metadata necessary to begin doing something useful with a collection. Description. Profiles encourage contribution by users of the site by including buttons within each section of the page. In this model, contributors need not be staff that work for the organization that manages the collection. Claim this Profile. Any unclaimed Profile will display this section of the page to encourage those who work for a collection to claim the Collection Profile, thereby unlocking additional functionality in profile administration. Notice that no user is signed in. As part of clicking the Claim this Profile button the user would be asked to sign in or go through a simple registration process. The user would then go through a process to verify ownership of the collection URL. The user who claims the profile by completing that verification process becomes a Collection Manager. Achievements Summary. Currently no Achievements have been accomplished. A link provides a way to learn more about Achievements and encourage users to enhance the profile. Contributors. A list of all s and Collection Managers who have contributed information for this Collection Profile. This list provides a social incentive for others to contribute by associating the with the collection in a public way.

A second volunteer has contributed information towards a few Achievements. The Profile is still unclaimed. s are able to provide much of the information on a collection, so even an unclaimed Collection Profile can be rather robust. However, accomplishment of some Achievements are only available to claimed profiles. Visitor Info. This information is part of a Real World Access: Visitor Info Achievement. Includes data that can help people to locate and plan a visit to the physical location of the institution that holds the collection. This information is available on the DPLA profiles website, but is also available via API for 3rd party aggregation services. Calendar of Events. In this example a URL to a webpage is provided, though the Achievement that enables this extended metadata would also support a machine-readable calendar feed as well, if available. Robot Friendly. Given the URL for the collection it is possible to automatically check for the presence of a robots.txt file which follows the The Robots Exclusion Protocol to discover whether the site is open to crawlers. Achievements Summary. A quick view of completed and verified Achievements. This summary functions as a progress indicator for Achievements. Feed icon. Each Collection Profile has a news feed (Atom) of changes made to the Profile. This allows services which consume a DPLA API, or any user, to receive notice that there is a new version of a Profile.
