Description

Clarke staff coordinated with the ADD scanning to digitally bringing together a large number of primary and secondary sources in 2 Detroit collections of/by Fr. Gabriel Richard. The scans then were printed and my student Anna Dean and I organized them, researched the collections, created a new finding aid, reorganized as needed, I cataloged the collection, and she encoded the finding aid making it GOogle-Searchable for researchers. I will link the encoded finding aid and catalog record in May. When you print digitized material Oversized material, for ex., no longer needs to be separated as OV material. We had to do some reorganizing of parts of the collection to make it work as digitized scans. processing, cataloging, encoding to provide access to the collection to researchers at and beyond CMU.
