Hi All, Jolene has identified the metadata records and fields to export. Carl has sent the export to me and I have begun translating the metadata. I've put a test of 25 photographs with metadata on flickr. I offer that these photographs and metadata are correct and ready for the public.
You can see the set at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mit-libraries/sets/72157614966285159/ I may add a few more images to this set, but I can't do all of the Kepes-Lynch prints. I could have Todd tackle this, but he has other projects to complete. Is there someone who can take over the images and metadata upload progress? I can train this person and deliver to them the images and metadata. Rob
Hi Rob,
This looks terrific! The only question I have about the data is the tag "Credit" for the author/creator information. Credit, in my mind, implies copyright information. Although, each of the values in the field are qualifies by a type, e.g., photographer, researcher, etc. I could be persuaded otherwise. In Dome, that filed in DC is Author and creator on the brief and full view respectively. Well, I do actually have another question. Where is the KL #. I think that should be displayed to the public b/c if we receive inquiries, we will need that unique piece of md. I do have two people in mind for the Lynch project. One works Tues. and Wed. 9-1. She was involved in the cataloging, so is very familiar with the images and md. Can we start as early as this week? I would like to be part of the training. i am away all of next week, but I will be in email contact.
