This leads to a situation where there is a single digital object for three archival objects. If the archival objects are easily identifiable in the digital object, the processing archivist should provide sequence number information to the Digital Collections Program Manager, who will then go into the DRS, create new structural metadata adding the AO titles to the first image of each AO, and create new URNs within that structural metadata to link to the new AOs.

Example:

1. Processing archivist has redescribed the archival object "Miscellaneous Cat Imagery, 1914-1915, nd." There are now four archival objects: Drawings of Professor Biscuits, 1914, Drawings of Lady Pawley, 1914, Watercolors of Cats at Rest, n.d., and Drawings of Cats at Play, 1915."
2. The processing archivist looks for the first item in each physical folder and matches them up with the sequences (or "pages") in the digital object as seen through the PDS viewer (accessed via URN)
3. The processing archivist records that information and passes on the sequence numbers and new titles to the Digital Collections Program Manager.
   1. i.e., "Drawings of Professor Biscuits" sequence 1; Drawings of Lady Pawley, Sequence 10, etc
4. The Digital Collections Program Manager can go into the DRS Admin, search for the digital object by URN and select "File Structure" bringing up the below page

5. Using the provided titles, the folder titles can be added to their sequences, as in the below image

There are other situations, however, where it is not possible to visually identify the first image sequence of an AO without having those materials physically on hand to review. If that is not possible, the DO should be linked to each new AO, and summary and processing information notes should be added to the DO that provide information about the changes made and including all the various new AOs that are linked.
