OHS (Open Harvester Systems) indexes and creates searchable listings of metadata from Open Archives Initiative (OAI)-compliant archives.
OAI services include sites using Open Journal Systems (OJS) or Open Conference Systems (OCS).
Here are some key features of "Open Harvester Systems":
· Ability to harvest OAI metadata in a variety of schemas (including unqualified DC, the PKP (Open Journal Systems/Open Conference Systems) Dublin Core extension, MODS, and MARCXML). Additional schema are supported via plugins.
· Flexible search interface that allows simple searching and advanced searching using crosswalked fields from all harvested archives. Advanced searching of archives that share the same schema will be possible using fields as defined in the schema. When creating crosswalks for searching, admins can define elements are text, date, or HTML multiple select interface widgets.
· Ability to perform granular harvesting using setSpec and timestamps.
· Ability to perform post-harvest and pre-indexing filtering/normalization on metadata.
· User Interface with CSS and template-based HTML for easy customization.
· Searching is highly scalable (creates an inverted index for searching).
