Description

A prototype that will allow the digital portal to our central repository, Discovery, to become the digital gateway to collections of records from across the UK. Discovery currently provides no way to filter national content thematically, so there is no straightforward way to bring less privileged narratives to the fore - in fact no way to categorise content at all beyond the repository that holds it. We would like to create a prototype to address this issue, to address the problem, how can collections be both brought together and separated out?

The prototype will:

• Manage terms to be picked up by Elasticsearch
• Filter by term manifested in the Discovery UI and the API
• Enable terms to run in parallel across TNA and non-TNA records via the API (not necessarily within the interface)
• Be an example template for 3rd party display of data

We have formed partnerships with organisations within the Archives sector to test the functionality of the development of the system. The Appointed Supplier will collaborate with partners to redesign the front end search page to ensure it is 'user-friendly', with prompts and advice of how to use the search for records.
