Procedure for Adding a New Faculty Publication to ContentDM

  1. Identify the copyright holder and ask them to sign a permissions form, attached. If the copyright holder won't sigh the form, the item can't be added.

  2. The signed permissions forms must be kept in the black filing cabinet next to the acquisitions files. Top drawer, permissions folder.

  3. Get a PDF copy of the item to be added. It can be scanned, from a screenshot, or copied and pasted into word then converted to a pdf.

  4. Load into contentDM. Complete the metadata using an existing record in the collection as a model.

  5. Index and approve. 

  6. Notify the faculty member that we've added the item, sending them the URL for it.
