9.10.1. Call Number Updates and Corrections to Metadata

February 10, 2021 - 10:38am by Anonymous (not verified)

All requests for updates to existing metadata should be forwarded to the Head of Digital Services, who will instruct the archivist in what form to provide the information (usually a spreadsheet or alternative electronic format). Over time, cataloged and uncataloged material has been ingested into the Digital Library with varying levels of description and varied call numbers. To ensure a comprehensive call number update, it is  important to conduct thorough call number, title, and keyword searches to identify digitized items from a particular collection. If alternate call numbers have been used to identify components – for items stored in ARTSTOR, for example – search the DL for these strings as well.
