  WebCollection:
      description: >-
        A collection documented on a heritage institution website, such as
        oral history recordings, photograph archives, or document collections.
        Captures collection metadata including name, description, URL, type,
        item count, and total hours for audio/video content.
        
        Ontology mapping rationale:
        - class_uri is dcmitype:Collection because this represents a curated
          aggregation of heritage items documented on an institutional website
        - close_mappings includes schema:Collection for web-discoverable collections
        - related_mappings includes prov:Entity for provenance tracking and
          schema:CreativeWork as collections contain creative works
      class_uri: dcmitype:Collection
      close_mappings:
        - schema:Collection
      related_mappings:
        - prov:Entity
