Imaging Services staff will deposit SKC images on behalf of a Repository. SKC images can be provided to Imaging Services via a shared SharePoint file, or by copying files to a Repository-specific SKC folder on the Imaging Services shared network drive. If you have questions about how to set up a SharePoint folder that will allow access to Imaging Services staff, contact your Repository's SharePoint administrator, or HUIT. If your Repository does not currently have a Repository specific folder on the Imaging Services shared network drive, please get in touch with your Imaging Services staff contact to get one set up.

Instructions for Repositories that use the Imaging Services shared network drive
...
:
- In the Repository folder, there will be an SKC folder. Repositories will use this space to stage their scanned images for deposit. In this SKC folder, there will be a “special” subfolder with the name '_Ready_For_DRS_'. Save image files for deposit in that folder.
- Repositories will create one or more subfolders in this _Ready_For_DRS_ folder, named with the correct DRS billing code. If a Repository has only one SKC billing code, it will have only one sub folder. Images ready for deposit to DRS will be copied/moved into these subfolders by Repository staff.
- For example, Schlesinger Library will have the following folder structure:
- Schlesinger
\_ SKC
\_ _Ready_For_DRS_
\_ RAD.SCHL.SKC_0001
\_ Batch001
\_ Batch002
\_ ...
\_ RAD.SCHL.SKC_0002
\_ Batch003
- Repository staff will send an email to the Imaging Services (IS) contact to alert IS staff that a batch or batches are ready for deposit.
- In advance of the quarterly processing of link batches by LTS, and as convenient for them, Imaging Services staff will move and deposit all batches in a Repository’s _Ready_for_DRS_ folders.
- Post-deposit, IS staff will process all resulting SKC deposit reports to convert them into a single linking spreadsheet matching the template supplied by LTS staff.
- Imaging Services will submit the spreadsheet to LTS for processing on a quarterly schedule.
- Each Repository representative will receive a copy of the original DRS report via email.

Whose name is that? We We can’t read the former owner’s signature, but a knowledgeable user may be able to read it. Additionally, including cast lists can be quite useful, as this information can sometimes be difficult to find:

Publishers’ catalogs are also highly useful; in the case of the many Johann Strauss issues collected by John Ward for instance, the catalogs help to identify the date of the issue, by examining the publications listed in the catalog:

Our ongoing broadside cataloging project has been a perfect case for scanning key content, and luboks provide wonderful, unique images:

The Santo Domingo project has been generating key content as well, including some unusual serial covers.
