Hi Alexander
I realise it is more work, but a very useful solution is to create a
separate item for each Digital collection/Repository
For an example:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q111174468 (OUR Archive: open
research repository at Otago University in New Zealand)
You can then use
P856 official website: for the collection URL, and
P361 part of: to link to the sponsoring organisation
It gets around the issue of an organisation hosting multiple digital
collections.
Interestingly in Australia we have just had a situation where a significant
digital collection has moved from one parent organisation to another:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q17022254
Reminder to self: There is a Mix'n'Match catalogue for the OpenDOAR
Directory of Repositories ID
https://mix-n-match.toolforge.org/#/catalog/983
which could do with some love.
All the best Pru

Hello everybody!
I was wondering which property to use when I'd like to add the URL of the
digital collection site of a GLAM institution. In the case of museums,
digital collections and catalogues often coincide, so
"https://sammlung.staedelmuseum.de" <https://sammlung.staedelmuseum.de>
can be added as P8768 to Q163804 (Städel Museum). But especially libraries
often have a dedicated digital collections site alongside the catalogue. Is
there a property for this? I couldn't find anything.
Some examples to illustrate what I mean:
Harvard Library (Q3232931) -> online catalog URL (P8768)
"https://library.harvard.edu/" <https://library.harvard.edu/>
But how can I specify the digital collections
"https://library.harvard.edu/digital-collections"
<https://library.harvard.edu/digital-collections>?
The same problem with Berlin State Library (Q170109) and
http://stabikat.de (catalogue) and
https://digital.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/ (digital collections).
In the case of Bavarian State Library (Q256507) the situation is slightly
more intricate: there is a separate item for the department hosting the
digital collections (Q111308594) where I've add the URL (
http://www.digitale-sammlungen.de/) in P2699. I don't think that this is
a very elegant solution and would be happy if you could help!
Thanks!
Best,
Alexander
