Input guidelines: Select one of the pre-specified note types from the dropdown field. The following note types are currently available:

Notes displayed on the Collections portal (public)

  • citation: Input standardized citations that may be valuable for users. Note that Collections portal will automatically generate some citation formats.

  • date captured: Input capture/recording/digitization dates. Input only the date in structured format YYYY-MM-DD. To record time intervals, append a forward slash ('/') to the start date of the interval, followed by the end date of the interval, without spaces between dates and separator (example: 2012-05-29/2012-05-31). If only part of a date is known, enter year and month only (YYYY-MM) or year only (YYYY).
  • date other: Input other dates of interest. Input only the date in structured format YYYY-MM-DD. To record time intervals, append a forward slash ('/') to the start date of the interval, followed by the end date of the interval, without spaces between dates and separator (example: 2012-05-29/2012-05-31).
