- | ====== CREATING COLLECTIVE TITLES ====== | ||
- | |||
- | ===== The Collection Title ===== | ||
- | |||
- | The creation of titles must come after some level of curatorial inspection has occurred. As titles are public viewable, they should only be created after confirmation of their existence within the Archive. For each new collection, the first title to be created should always be the Collection title. Again, this must be a confirmed collection accepted into the Archive, and a MAVIS Collection Authority record should already exist. In most cases, a Collection title is created shortly after a collection becomes ʻUluʻulu official. | ||

- | ===== Moving Down the Hierarchy: subcollections, subgroups, collectives ===== | ||
- | |||
- | Depending on how much curatorial inspection has occurred, a collection might already have been broken down into smaller categories. If a set of Subcollections has been firmly decided on, Subcollection titles can be created as well. Smaller groupings, such as subgroups and collectives could also be determined a priori to an accessioning and/or boxaloging process, but it might be better to create these titles during the accessioning/boxaloging process itself. How to create these lower-level collective titles? | ||
