How would you like to have your DDI today?
DDI Lifecycle is great to make a complete lifecycle documentation and handles a lot of different use-cases. But sometimes your consumers want other formats, as a good chef you should be able to serve your dinner guest their favorite type of dish. It may be some delicious DDI-codebook, a small portion of DataCite metadata, a spicy PDF codebook or a complete three-course meal of HTML with JavaScript on the side. The need for transforming DDI to other formats is widespread and institutions like libraries have their established formats for their information system. This presentation discusses the need to standardize and provide open solutions for transformations of DDI to other formats. This project will present XSLT transformations from DDI-Lifecycle to: "An interactive HTML codebook with jQuery, MARC-XML, DataCite metadata, DDI-Codebook".
