Usage: |
Create an Alternate Title to:
Provide significant, unique information in a created Alternate Title so that the item could be identified if it were removed from the collection. Provide information in the order of Who, What, Where, When, if possible, when information is not supplied in other metadata elements. Do not use abbreviations or square brackets in created titles. Generally omit from a created Alternate Title terms denoting gender, race, or age, unless this information is considered important to bring out or is needed for context. For existing descriptions that are used as the basis for CONTENTdm metadata, generally remove outdated terms, or, if they are needed for context, update them to current terminology. If there is doubt about current terminology, leave such terms out. If there are multiple titles, list them in the order in which they appear in the resource, or in order of their importance. Enter them in the same field, separating each entry with a semicolon space. If a formal alternate title could be considered offensive, give the title as found on the item, but consult the collection curator about what statement should be given in the Notes element. A custom note or the following standard text may be used: This material depicts ethnic, racial, and gender insensitivity that was once commonplace in American society. Such portrayals were wrong then and are wrong today. While not representing the views of the University of Arkansas today, the item is being presented as it was originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed. Refer to element Title for specific instructions on recording data. |
