A quality project on the "Mémoires de l'Institut d'études politiques de Paris" collection
|
|
|
The Sciences Po Paris library has expanded and enriched the description of its unicas, in particular its collection of dissertations from the Institut d'études politiques (over 6,000 records). The enrichment includes the addition of access points for academic supervisors and the organization of defense (with the relevant function codes), the addition of Dewey indices and genre-forme indexing, and lastly the standardization of records (addition of zone 183, transformation of zone B210 into B214).
In preparation for this project, data was extracted from the BMS, aligned with IdRef (for authority data) and analyzed with OpenRefine. Details of the methodology can be obtained from the establishment's Sudoc coordinator, Clément Siberchicot.
