D'oh! OK, I now officially feel stupid :-)

It turns out that in "ye olden days" before our EThOS integration, we used to 
keep the Publication Type, Qualification Type, and Qualification Level in 
dc.type as a single, concatenated string, but, for thesis records added after 
the integration, these were separated out into the appropriate dc.type, 
dc.type.qualificationname, and dc.type.qualificationlevel attributes.

So, I was expecting to see these three separate attributes in the OAI-PMH 
metadata, but, of course, the first records returned are our oldest, where all 
this data is in the single field - if I page through a few records, I come to 
those where this info is held in separate attributes in DSpace, and these 3 
attributes do, correctly, appear in the OAI-PMH mapped to their corresponding 
uketd_dc terms :-)

So, this is not an issue that needs to be looked into and was merely me being 
stupid (or, perhaps being slightly kinder, a little forgetful) :-)

Apologies for the noise and any confusion or concern!

Cheers,

Mike
