Editor's Notes
- #7: Types of content managed by Shared Shelf
- #11: Metadata schemas and cataloging screens are completely customizable. Full size, zoomable images available during cataloging. Draw upon integrated Getty vocabularies or add your own vocabulary values and share with the community. Download the full size source image at any time.
- #14: Users managing content in Shared Shelf may also make their content available to the public in Shared Shelf Commons –an more basic version of ARTstor Workspace that allows users to search, browse, view, download and share content via URLs. -Colby College, U of Delaware, Cornell are first institutions to dip their toes in the water and their collections are now available- Shared Shelf Commons content is currenly not made available within the ARTstor Digital Library, but may be in the future. If collection managers want to make their local content available to internal users (at their institution alongside ADL content) as well as to public users on WWW, they can publish from Shared Shelf to both target collections.
