How to make a CultURIze spreadsheet:

  1. Use a comma seperated CSV, from LibreOffice or Google Sheet. For column names use the exact names as stated here below.
  2. The obligatory columns are:
    • PID - contains a persistent identifier for the object
    • URL - contains a webadres to where the PID should redirect
    • enabled - contains only 1 and 0, indicating if the link that is set up in that row is active or not. This makes it possible to disable a link, for example when copyright issues appear.
  3. The optional column is document type - it contains the document type of the object you are identifying with a PID (for example 'data', ‘representation' etc). Must contain only one document type (so one word). Subcategory of document types like data/detail/ are not permitted.
  4. You can add other columns to your CSV file for information, but they will be all ignored by the tool.
  5. The CSV file can't contain any empty lines.
  6. Download a csv-template here

The persistent URI’s that are created by this conversion look as follows: http://domainnameofserver/subdirectory/subsubdirectory/.../documenttype/PID and redirect to the URL given in the CSV-file.
