ESciDoc Application Profile Publication

Introduction
This document specifies the metadata set used by the eSciDoc PubMan solution to describe resources (or items) of content type "publication". All eSciDoc items consist of sub resources, i.e. one or many metadata records and zero or many component (= files). Each eSciDoc item of content type "publication" requires one metadata record in accordance to this application profile.

Aim and Scope
PubMan is a solution for depositing formal and informal scholarly publications which are relevant within a specific context, e.g. to collect the scientific output of a research institute. The solution supports three major usage scenarios: depositing content (e.g. via manual submission or ingestion), managing content (e.g. to enrich the available metadata) and (re-)using content (e.g. via search/browse or harvesting).

PubMan has a focus on publication management within an institutional context which requires that creators can be associated with affiliations. In addition, the solution is not restricted to a specific discipline.
