This service allows anyone to upload MODS XML files, including modsCollection
files, and verify that those records comply to the MODS XML Schema and also to
check the uploaded records against the
MODS Levels of Adoption Guidelines. In addition to MODS records, the
service also allows the upload of
Asset Action Packages which is another experimental format being developed
by the DLF Aquifer project. An Asset Action Package is an XML file
containing a defined set of actionable URIs for a digital resource that delivers
named, typed actions for that resource.
Anyone is welcome to get an account and upload their MODS records for validation
and checking. However, note that the system is still in the
research/development stages, so expect that any posted records could get mangled
or disappear for unknown reasons. Also, note that other people can view
your uploaded records, so do not post any records you do not want to be made
public. Although, if you post an embarrasingly unconformant record you can
delete it. Finally, the system can only handle a modsCollection with about
100 MODS record inside, so do not post any modsCollections bigger than this.
