Description

We migrated from 3.0 to 4.7 and when we try to retrieve oai data using
oai?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&identifier=[identfierID] we are missing some elements. As is shown on the screenshots, particularly
. dc:relation
· dc:description (citation)
· dc:coverage (time and geographic)
· dc:rights
are not there in the new version which existed in the 3.0
We wonder if we should configure something to get the same response, in order to not affect external systems that are harvesting our metadata as they are currently exposed by our Dataverse 3.0.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the oai?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&identifier=[identifierID] request in Dataverse 4.7 and compare its response with the supplied 3.0 and 4.7 screenshots. Trace how the OAI_DC response is assembled, then verify that dc:relation, citation description, time and geographic coverage, and dc:rights are present without affecting existing harvesters.
