 How to determine what is/is not deposited

 

What is deposited?

  • Visual images from cataloged books, manuscripts, ephemera, art, etc.
  • Whole objects
  • Single pages of illuminated manuscripts
  • Items under copyright or otherwise restricted may be deposited, with curatorial permission, as “Harvard-only,” or entirely suppressed from public view.

 

What is not deposited?

  • Single pages of a text or letter.
  • Partial pages of any kind.
  • Double spread of text only (double spreads of images should be deposited)

 

Structural (PDS) Metadata

This is required when there are multiple images from a single item that need to be made into a “page turning” digital object: a book; a 4-page letter, etc. 

 

When to use Structural Metadata?

  • Complete objects that contain three or more pages with very few exceptions
  • When there are six or more images from any one object, but the whole object is not digitized.

 

When is structural metadata not needed?

  • If the complete object only contains one or two pages.
  • If there are less than six images from one object and is not a complete object.

           

            In both cases the images will be linked to the record individually.

  • No labels
