Templates

Source: Houghton's Alma templates are based on earlier Aleph templates, updated with guidance from the Use of NET sublibrary in Aleph best practice document and the Harvard Library Preservation NET Holdings Templates and Local Practices document.

NOPDS or PDS

For images that will display via the Image Delivery Service (IDS), use the NOPDS templates. For images Access: Until Harvard Library policies about Alma shared templates change, both Houghton's Digital Collections Program Manager or Metadata Librarian have copies of the current Alma templates and can temporarily post them to the shared templates folder on request. These templates should be duplicated to the private templates folder. Then the shared templates should be either set to private again (if originals) or deleted (if copies). 

Maintenance: At the start of each new calendar year, the year should be updated in the 843 $d and $7 and 908 $b.

Template selection

NOPDS or PDS: For images that will display via the Image Delivery Service (IDS), use the NOPDS templates. For images displayed through the Page Delivery Service (PDS), use the PDS templates.

GEN or RDM

...

: RDM templates are only used for digital masters, records for print monographs and serials that were created according to the Benchmark for Faithful Digital Reproductions of Monographs and Serials and that will be exported to the Registry of Digital Masters. All other digitized materials use the GEN templates. 

SUPPRESSED

...

: Select one of the suppressed templates for any images that will be suppressed from public view.
