Training

  • Review how to do data entry for new artist names (e.g., search in term completion widget; if not there, open up new browser tab via right-click on "Create New"; add person with all metadata; go back to Cataloging browser tab)
  • Create some tip documents that can be the beginning of a cataloging manual
  • Train people how to use multiple browser tabs in CSpace so they can have search results list and work on updates
