  3. Create object template.
  4. Add directories to object template.
  5. Follow manual or automatic object creation process as described in Sections 5.1 or 5.2 to create objects and process the batch.

Steps:

  1. See  this page for additional instructions for file format and metadata: /wiki/spaces/LibraryStaffDoc/pages/43287450 Then...
  2. Create new project in Batch Builder
    1. From main menu select Project > New.
    2. Enter project data:

Project Name: enter a name for your project (used for internal tracking only).
Project Directory: select the directory where project will be saved (click ellipsis button to browse for or create a directory).
Content Model: select the "still image" value from the dropdown.

Click OK to continue.

     2.  Enter DRS deposit settings:

    1. Click on "Deposit Settings" in Project Panel tree.
    2. Enter deposit data in the form:

     3.  Create object template:

Metadata added at this level will be applied to every object in a batch, unless overridden by specific object metadata that you define in later steps.

    1. Click on "Object Template" in Project Panel tree:

    2. Enter required object metadata in the form – see this page for required metadata: /wiki/spaces/LibraryStaffDoc/pages/43287450

      URN Authority Path: Even though the URNs for electronic book plates are created by an ebook URN batch process, Batch Builder still requires your NRS authority path. Use all caps. Look up your Path here if needed:[ |http://nrsadmintest.lib.harvard.edu:9012/nrs/status.html]http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:hul.ois:nrsstatusprod.
      File URN Resource Name Pattern: use default value {n} will generate a unique number. Note: even though URN will not be generated, Batch Builder still requires the value.

     4.  Add image directory to object template.

    1. Add directory: right click on "Object Template" in Project Panel tree. The new directory name will start with "image" but you can append a custom suffix.
    2. Add metadata: click to select the new directory, then add metadata to the form:
      Required:
           First Generation in DRS: select "yes".
           Usage Class: select "HIGHUSE".
      See this page for instructions for additional DRS file metadata for electronic book plates: see this page for required metadata: /wiki/spaces/LibraryStaffDoc/pages/43287450
    3. Save your work (Project > Save on main menu).

     5.  Follow instructions in Section 5.2 for manually creating a batch of objects or in Section 5.3 for automatically creating a batch of objects from template and then process the batch.

     6. Once the batch is successfully deposited, see here /wiki/spaces/LibraryStaffDoc/pages/43287450 for instructions for creating URNs for electronic book plates in HOLLIS
