Background
tDAR provides the ability to view Document metadata in MODS format as well as DC (Dublin Core) format. This document shows the mappings for the fields in tDAR documents to MODS, DC format.
The native XSD schema for tDAR's native metadata format can be found here: https://core.tdar.org/schema/current.
