Consider removing 255 character limit on rights field #490

Open

Description

@philipashlock

The rights field is the only field with a character limit, but it's now being used for many different things:

  • explanation of the accessLevel
  • explanation for redactions
  • explanation for non-public-domain licenses

Even using this to insert one of the FOIA exemption reasons for a redaction would exceed the 255 character limit.

Considerations:

  • Should there still be a character limit, but perhaps a higher one?
  • Should the rights field be more structured to facilitate these different uses? Dublin Core also splits these into more specific fields like accessRights
