  1. Adding Finding Aids with CONTENTdm 5’s Built-in SupportWestern CONTENTdm Users Group MeetingJune 3, 2010 Sara Amato - sara.amato@gmail.com

  3. Getting Started http://www.contentdm.org/help5/projectclient/adding5.asp

  4. Collection Creation and Indexing Create searchable fields that will map to EAD elements • 47 EAD elements can be mapped. • See ”Available Tags for Metadata Mapping” • Data from EAD is mapped to these fields in project client, and is indexed. Also, if you have a ‘full text search’ field in the collection, the entire EAD text is also put into that field and indexed.

  5. About Stylesheets In order to process an EAD finding aid, CONTENTdm uses three default stylesheets: description_default.xsl generates the description section of the finding aid contentslist_default.xsl generates the contents list section of the finding aid fullfindingaid_default.xsl generates the full finding aid view These files are located within the CONTENTdm Project Client\EAD directory. Drive or Network Location\ Program Files\OCLC\CONTENTdm Project Client\EAD We edited these to make display more like NWDA, and Utah folks will recognize the search box …..

  6. Project Client Process

  7. Looking Forward to Fixes… <daoloc> support http://nwda-db.wsulibs.wsu.edu/nwda-search/fstyle.aspx?doc=OWSMss015.xml SR#1-675603095 – should be fixed in next release of project client this summer

  8. Inner frame not getting head info Bug Tracking #CDM-1475. Fixed in 5.4

  9. In Summary + Easy to get them up + No additional programming needed • One at a time • Stylesheets on client side • Original XML file not on server (unless you have archival file turned on and online… which we ended up doing) • Not synced with NWDA
