RAD template: ISAD(G)edDocument status: in progress

Overview
The purpose of this template is to provide an interface for archival description that uses the elements and field labels of the Canadian Rules for Archival Description (RAD), but organizes them according to the areas of description in ISAD(G).
RAD's descriptive areas are based on bibliographic standards. Three of its nine areas (1.2, 1.6, 1.9) are applicable only at the item level. Another area (1.3) applies only to specific media (cartographic records, architectural and technical drawings, philatelic records). A number of elements in the date and title areas (1.4 and 1.1) relate only to the description of published items. In terms of interface, this is a lot of real estate to give to elements that are not relevant to typical, aggregate level description. On the other hand, a large number of elements that are commonly used are clustered in the Notes area (1.8).
The result is that a template following RAD's structure closely devotes a large number of areas and fields to elements not frequently used; while many elements that are heavily used get buried in the Notes area. The RAD ISAD(G)ed template resolves this problem by retaining the RAD elements and field labels, but organizing them according to the areas laid out in ISAD(G).
Identity area
This div corresponds to ISAD(G) area 3.1.
Qubit-required fields with no RAD equivalents:
- Identifier
- Level of arrangement
- Parent level
- Repository
RAD fields that map to ISAD(G):
- Title (RAD 1.1B / ISAD(G) 3.1.2)
- Extent (RAD 1.5B / ISAD(G) 3.1.5)
Unique RAD fields handled by Qubit properties:
- General material designation (RAD 1.1C)
This div follows the ISAD(G) template by including a section to add title notes.
