Consider removing 255 character limit on rights field #490
Open
Description
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
