| Semantic unit | 1.3.2 preservationLevelValue |
|---|
| Definition | A value indicating the set of preservation functions expected to be applied to the object. |
| Applicability | Intellectual Entity / Representation, File |
| Obligation | Mandatory |
| Repeatability | Not repeatable |
| Rationale | Allows a value to be assigned to the preservationLevel. |
| Data constraint | Value should be taken from a controlled vocabulary. If preservationLevelType and\/or preservationLevelRole are used, then the available controlled vocabulary should be dependent on the values set for each of these types. |
| Creation /
Maintenance notes | The preservation level may be assigned by the repository or requested by the depositor and submitted as metadata. |
| Usage notes | Only one preservationLevelValue may be recorded per preservationLevel container. If a further preservationLevelValue applies to the Object in a different context, a separate preservationLevel container should be repeated. |
