MLIS 7505 Assignment 4

 

Community:http://mlis.library.gatech.edu/handle/123456789/17

    Creating my community was very easy. I followed the steps that Fatih walked us through in the LC and I had no trouble creating my community. I liked that I could upload a logo, which I did for both the community and my collection. I made sure to provide a short description as well as plain text copyright. I didn't add any new authorizations or policies to my community.

Collection:http://mlis.library.gatech.edu/handle/123456789/18

    For my collection, I decided to do European History, which is what I specialized in for my MA in history. I also added my logo to this page. Again, I provided a short description and plain text copyright. I also added a sentence of introductory text so that people will know what is in my collection. Finally, I added a sentence for the Provenance section so that people will know that the papers are originals written by me.

 

Metadata field

    I had Larry Hansard add a metadata field for me. It was 110/subject/maswanson. It added subject keywords on the input form.

 

Object: http://mlis.library.gatech.edu/handle/123456789/106

    The object that I submitted to my collection is the introductory chapter to my MA thesis. I made sure to fill out my metadata field with key words that identify my thesis chapter. Here is what the file looks like:
