| Description |
Repository x contains a range of 'versions' of a particular eprint, including several numbered drafts, some significantly different to each other and some bearing only minor revisions. It also contains the unrefereed author’s manuscript as submitted to the journal and the refereed publisher’s proof. In addition, the published version has been translated into Swedish and French, and these two translations are also available in the repository. An aggregator would like to be able to pick which 'versions' it harvests metadata for (e.g. drafts might be considered out of scope). An aggregator search service would like to make clear, within its search results or browse tree, that these versions are associated with a single 'work'. It also wants to be able to present clear information about the differences between them. |
