Structure--Setting Up Collections

Incremental set-up:

  • Initially set up only departments that have materials that can be mapped from the ETD’s and Faculty Publications (easily mapped).
  • Begin all Communities and Collections with UMBC

When setting up communities or collections, use the following websites documenting UMBC Departments to find and use official names. You can also Google for the Department’s page and use what it calls itself.

To determine where a department should be placed with the structure, use the attached Full Potential Set-Up Document.

Steps:

  1. Login to the system.
  2. Navigate to the location where the new collection goes--If the community where the collection goes is not present, create it.
  3. Click "create collection."
  4. Fill in any values provided by the department or unit.
  5. Copy and paste the text of our license agreement into the license box. License text is as follows:
