Hi all, How do people feel about storing non-MARC metadata in the biblio_metadata table? Typically, the "format" column contains the string "marcxml" and the "metadata" column contains the MARCXML text, but it seems like someone could put in "RDF/XML" and RDFXML text instead? The one barrier to that is the "marcflavour" column which is a "NOT NULL" column. I mean. that could be an empty string. but I wonder if there's a way of de-MARCing that column? I'm trying to think of analogs for other scenarios. I mean in the case of RDF. you might have RDF/XML or JSON-LD. which are separate formats but they're both "RDF". I wonder if "marcflavour" could be better known as "schema", or "model", or "standard", or something else? I know choosing wording is hard. For instance, MARC::File::XML (https://metacpan.org/pod/MARC::File::XML) refers to UNIMARC and MARC21 as formats. Dublin Core and MODS are often referred to as schemas. MARC21 is often called a standard. According to http://www.loc.gov/marc/unimarctomarc21.html, UNIMARC and MARC21 are formats. RDF gets called a data model with different data serialization formats. I know it would probably be a lot of work to change "marcflavour" to something else, especially since we've all been familiar with "marcflavour" for many years now, but I'm thinking maybe it's time we change that name.
