Texas History Collection – Portal Metadata A curated dataset of bibliographic metadata records harvested from the Portal to Texas History, maintained by the University of North Texas Libraries. The Portal aggregates rare, historical, and primary source materials from or about Texas, and serves as a service hub for the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). This dataset was created to support AI/ML experimentation in library and digital collections contexts, including semantic search, subject heading recommendation, and metadata enrichment tasks.

Dataset Details Dataset Description Curated by: Angela Colmenares Language: English License: CC0 1.0 Universal (Public Domain) Source: Portal to Texas History OAI-PMH feed (oai_dc format) Harvest date: 2025 Source Data Metadata was harvested via the OAI-PMH protocol from: https://texashistory.unt.edu/oai/?verb=ListRecords&metadataPrefix=oai_dc Records are encoded using Dublin Core (oai_dc), the standard metadata schema for OAI-PMH interchange. Only records with both a title and a description field were retained. Deleted records (as flagged by the OAI-PMH feed) were excluded.

Schema Each record contains the following fields: Field Description Example oai_id OAI-PMH identifier for the record oai:texashistory.unt.edu:metapth123 title Title of the item Map of Texas, 1836 description Textual description or abstract An early cartographic representation... subject Subject headings, pipe-separated if multiple Texas--History | Maps creator Author(s) or creator(s), pipe-separated if multiple Austin, Stephen F. date Date of creation or publication 1836 type Type of resource (image, text, sound, etc.) Image format File format or physical medium image/jpeg language Language of the resource en publisher Publisher or holding institution Dolph Briscoe Center for American History rights Rights statement Public Domain source Source collection or parent resource Texas State Library and Archives relation Related resources, pipe-separated if multiple https://texashistory.unt.edu/... coverage Spatial or temporal coverage, pipe-separated Texas | 1836 portal_url Direct URL to the item on the Portal to Texas History https://texashistory.unt.edu/...

Intended Uses Direct Use Semantic search demos — encode description fields with sentence transformers to enable meaning-based retrieval Subject heading recommendation — train or prompt models to suggest subjects from title + description Metadata quality analysis — explore completeness, coverage, and consistency across fields Digital humanities research — study the composition of Texas historical collections Out-of-Scope Use This dataset should not be used to train models that would reproduce or replace the Portal to Texas History or its partners' services Commercial use of the underlying digital objects should be verified against the rights statements in each record

Dataset Creation Curation Rationale Library metadata is an underrepresented domain in publicly available NLP/ML datasets. This dataset aims to fill that gap for Texas and regional history collections, supporting both practical library AI tools and broader digital humanities research. Source Data Collection Records were harvested using the OAI-PMH ListRecords verb with the oai_dc metadata prefix. Pagination was handled via OAI-PMH resumption tokens. A 1.5-second delay was observed between requests to be respectful of the server. Filtering Records were included only if they contained non-empty title and description fields. Deleted records (OAI-PMH status="deleted") were excluded.

Bias and Limitations Coverage reflects what Portal partners have digitized and made available — this is not a complete or representative sample of Texas history Descriptions vary significantly in length and quality across partner institutions Subject headings may use legacy or non-standardized terminology Date formats are inconsistent across records (some are year-only, some include month/day)
