Illuminating connections and contexts: building an ontology for Chinese ration coupon archival resources based on RiC-ORation coupons defined everyday life in China from 1953 to 1993, and evolving trends in research demand more sophisticated ways of describing archival resources that document this unique period of history. This study constructed the Chinese Ration Coupon Ontology (CRC-O) using the Records in Contexts-Ontology (RiC-O) model to represent and describe a resource collection of ration coupons, policy documents, and oral histories.
The study offers an application of RiC-O to a new domain, demonstrating its capability to represent and integrate multiple types of archival resources, surface connections between resources, and enable rich, detailed descriptions.
