Content models

This page contains a list, for reference, of the standard content models. Each object in Islandora is associated with a content model, which enforces how the object may be edited, viewed, or changed.

At Smith, the following content models have been affiliated with specific record types for collection materials:

1. Bibliographic materials, bound manuscripts and text-based archival records -- Islandora Internet Archive Book Content Model and Islandora Page Content Model
2. Photographic or illustrative materials and single page manuscripts -- Islandora Compound Object Content Model (for compound objects) and Islandora Large Image Content Model
3. Newspapers and serials -- Islandora Newspaper Content Model, Islandora Newspaper Issue Content Model, and Islandora Newspaper Page Content Model
4. Multi-page born-digital textual content, such as oral history transcripts and electronic publications -- PDF Content Model

Examples:

• One folder of non-photographic material: Book content model
• Multi-page manuscript item: Book/page content model
• Bound scrapbook: Book/page content model
• Single photograph: Large Image content model
• Portfolio of artwork: Compound object content model
• Single text document, born-digital: PDF content model
• Periodical: Newspaper content model

The implementation of the audio and video content models is still in process for audiovisual materials.
