My favorite new toy of the week is Item Type metadata. It was great fun to define a new entry, with a few customized elements to help describe our special collection.
Yes, Omeka is lacking some of the basic functionality of the drag-and-drop webpage applications, and it wouldn’t be hard to fix, but I imagine that being free sets some limitations on development. The real power, obviously, is in the archiving functionality.
Has anyone discovered if there is a way to view or download a clean metadata file from an item, like you can do, for example at the NYPL, or LOC? I am wondering how one would export all the cataloging created in Omeka.
