Content Resources Scenario

Landing Page ➞ Content Resources

The use of Typed Links in the HTTP Link header is illustrated for the paper:

Jenkins, S. D., and Ruostekoski, J. Controlled manipulation of light by cooperative response of atoms in an optical lattice. Article on University of Southampton Institutional Research Repository ePrints Soton at https://eprints.soton.ac.uk/id/eprint/338797, Dec. 2011.

This is a summary of the links that should be provided:

  • The Landing Page should have links with the item relation type pointing at each Content Resource.
  • Each item link should have attributes to express the MIME type and possibly profile of the resource that is the target of the link.
  • Each Content Resource should link back to the Landing Page with the collection relation type.
