- I won’t go into too much detail here, but this diagram may do a better job of showing how our descriptive practices can link resources and provide that context. As I mentioned, we describe at the item and collection level. We also use EAC to create authority files for Organizations, people and expeditionsI’m just going to give you the basic concept, which I think is more interesting than the nuts and bolts of it anyway.EAC authority files providebiographical background on field book creators… so we can see where they are from, who they studied with, etc. Also for organizations and expeditions.You can also link these histories… so that we get this kind of historical social network… who was doing what with whom, where and when.Able to link field books related to same person/organization/expedition.
- Thank you!
