Final prototype creation (draft)

[karindalziel]

The "Sample site" is an Omeka S site that attempts to recreate the work we have done on Omeka S already along with the rails work we have done. The first goal of this site is to represent as much data as we can so that it can be themed - after that we will decide if we need to replace parts (notably in the news) with the rails site.

• Home page
• Index of Poets (formerly Contemporary African Poets)
  • This section will be populated using data from airtable, exported as a CSV.
  • Browse by Featured Poet
  • Search
  • About
• African Poets and Poetry In the News
  • The goal of this section is to have a few interlinked items as an example, but not necessarily to fill it out completely. Start with the commentary linked below and then add linked items. This will be done by hand, with an eye towards possible populating in the future via scripts.
  • News
  • Poets
  • Events
  • Works
  • Commentaries
    • I would like to start with this commentary, and then fill in the works, people, and events linked to it
  • Visualizations
  • About
• Critical Bibliographies (Intro Page)
  • Kofi Awoonor Bibliography
  • Tanella Boni Bibliography
  • (more to be provided?)
• Collections
  • Will be based on the site Sarita created
  • The section called "Surveys" will be "collections" in the new site
  • Ella and Karin might need to talk about organization a bit
  • Defining African Poetry (page from Sarita's Omeka site will be a sub page to "Collections")
    • Collaborating Institutions information page
  • All Items
  • Cambridge
  • Capetown
  • Ghana
  • Library of Congress
  • Michigan
  • Northwestern
  • Oxford
  • Togo
• About (main about the project Page)
  • Credits
  • African Poetry Book Fund
  • Technical Details (will need to be updated)

Data needed:

• Spreadsheets Sarita used to ingest collections page
• Collection item metadata (We are waiting on APDP team)

Data we will need to create:

• Export of poets for the index of poets page, exported from airtable and manipulated into a format that can be ingested into Omeka S
• MAYBE exports of data from In the News to give the appearance for "full" data pages. I do NOT think we can get these fully linked though, it may have to suffice to have a few linked items from each section.
