Preface

The Society of American Archivists Encoded Archival Description Working Group At the time of this revision members of the Working Group were: Randall Barry (Library of Congress Network Devolopment and MARC Standards Office), Catherine Dhérent (Archives de France, Michael Fox (Minnesota Historical Society), Tim Hutchinson (University of Saskatchewan), Kris Kiesling (University of texas at Austin), William Landis (University of californis at Irvine), Gavan McCarthy (University of Melbourne), Daniel Pitti (University of virginia), Merrillee Proffitt (Research Libraries Group, ex officio ), Lydia Reid (National Archives and Records Administration), and Meg Sweet (Public Record Office). is pleased to bring you EAD 2002, the second full version of the encoding standard for archival finding aids. This version represents a truly international collaboration in the continued development and maintenance of EAD.

In 2000 the International Council on Archives Committee on Descriptive Standards published the second edition of the General International Standard Archival Description (ISAD(G)). One of the guiding principles of EAD is to maintain compatibility with ISAD(G). Many of the suggestions submitted to the Working Group in late 2000 and early 2001 reflected changes needed to maintain that compatibility; they have been accommodated in this version through the addition of new elements and/or attributes or through clarifications of existing element and attribute definitions. Experimentation with EAD internationally, particularly recent tests in France and Germany, has shown that EAD is applicable to a variety of descriptive practices but also has indicated the need for structural changes. Some of the more significant changes are as follows:

There are two new elements in the Descriptive Identification of the Unit did : Language of the Material langmaterial , and Material Specific Details materialspec . Replacing the langmaterial attribute in archdesc and c , the langmaterial element makes it possible to provide intelligible information about language(s) to the end user. Information such as scale for technical drawings and maps and playing time for sound recordings can be expressed in materialspec , expanding EAD's applicability beyond "traditional" archival materials.

Archival Description archdesc (and therefore all components) also has some new elements. Location of Originals originalsloc parallels the originals/copies aspect of Alternative Form Available altformavail . Physical Characteristics and Technical Requirements phystech accommodates the new ISAD(G) rule 3.4.4, and indicates whether there are unusual physical aspects or if special equipment is needed to access the materials.

Structural changes have also been implemented in EAD 2002. Administrative Information admininfo and Adjunct Descriptive Data add have been "unbundled," i.e., the elements that were formerly nested within these two elements are now available directly in archdesc and c . While they provided a useful grouping tool at the highest level of description, frequently the need to open, for example, admininfo to use accessrestrict at the component level simply created tagging overhead. It should be noted that the use of admininfo and add is being deprecated by the Working Group (see Appendix B). This means that the Working Group recommends discontinuing their use because this structure will be eliminated in a future version of EAD. To facilitate grouping of elements on an as-needed basis, another new archdesc element has been created, Description Group descgrp . descgrp can be used to bundle most of the structural elements (except did and dsc ), enabling archivists to group them logically at a given level of description.

EAD 2002 presents a host of new attributes, and most of the semi-closed lists of attribute values have been eliminated. In most cases, the semi-closed lists were very Anglo-centric and inhibited international adoption of EAD (e.g., the list of controlled vocabulary thesauri for the source attribute). It will now be the responsibility of individual repositories to use consistently the code lists and terminology recommended by national practices.

Finally, archivists persuasively articulated the need for certain elements and attributes in places where they weren't available in EAD version 1.0. As a result, title is now available in indexentry , and "singlequote" and "doublequote" have been added as values for the render attribute, in addition to other improvements.

The Working Group gratefully acknowledges all who took the time to contribute to this version of EAD. EAD is stronger for your attention and interest! In addition, we extend our deep appreciation to the National Historical Publications and Records Commission, which has provided funding to support Working Group meetings.

Like many efforts of its kind, most of the work of bringing EAD 2002 to fruition was shouldered by a small group of dedicated souls. I'd like to extend my personal thanks to Daniel Pitti at the University of Virginia for once again revising the DTD (and revising…and revising…), to Michael Fox of the Minnesota Historical Society for writing definitions of new elements and attributes and for drafting a conversion script and testing the new DTD, to Tim Hutchinson of the University of Saskatchewan for careful proofreading, and to Merrilee Proffitt of the Research Libraries Group and Bill Landis of the University of California at Irvine for gathering and parsing the examples.

Tag Library Conventions

The EAD Elements section of the tag library contains descriptions of 146 elements, which are arranged alphabetically by their tag names. The Index by Element Name (Appendix D) makes it possible to locate those elements with tag names that might be hard to find alphabetically. For example, the index entry for Conditions Governing Use points to the tag name userestrict . The Index by Element Name also serves as a concise, easily browsable list of all EAD elements.

The EAD Elements section presents information for each element as shown in Figure 1. Some of a DTD's specialized terminology is explained on the following pages as a reminder of basic SGML/XML conventions involved in encoding documents with EAD. For basic information about SGML and XML and pointers to additional resources, consult the XML Cover pages at http://www.oasis-open.org/cover/ .

Figure 1. Layout

This section also includes the three elements that occur in the EAD Group DTD: eadgrp , archdescgrp , and dscgrp . The EAD Group DTD allows several EAD-encoded finding aids to be combined into a single document and uses many EAD elements.

Tag Name:

Short, mnemonic form of the element name that is used in the machine-readable encoded document. The tag name is the first word at the top of the page. Tag names appear between angle brackets, e.g., archdesc , except in the listings under "May occur within" and "May contain," and are always in lowercase.

Element Name:

Expanded version of the tag name which more fully describes the element's meaning. The full name of the element is usually a word or phrase that identifies the element's purpose. In the tag library, the element name follows the tag name on the page defining that element and appears with initial capital letters, e.g., archdesc Archival Description.

Description:

The first paragraph of the description defines the element by drawing from terminology in archival glossaries, basic dictionaries, and data dictionaries such as ISAD(G), MARC21, the Categories for the Description of Works of Art , and the Text Encoding Initiative DTD. Internation Council on Archives. ISAD(G): General International Standard Archival Description, 2nd ed. , adopted by th Committee on Descriptive Standards, Stockholm, Sweden, 19-22 September 1999 ( http:www.ica.org/eng/mb/com/cds/descriptivestandards/ .) Categories for the Description of Works of Art. (Santa monica, Calif.: Getty Information Institute, http://www.getty.edu/research/institute/standards/cdwa/ ) Library of Congress MARC21 format for Bibliographic Data. (Washington, DC.: Library of Congress, 2001. ( http://lcweb.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/ecbdhome.html ) The Text Encoding Initiative is an international research project that has developed an encoding standard for aa wide range of document types in the domain of humanities computing ( http://www.tei-c.org/ ). Any additional paragraphs describe how the element is used, differentiate it from similar elements, point out useful attributes, provide an illustrative example, or direct the reader to related elements. Stock phrases are used to suggest the kind of element being discussed. "Wrapper element" indicates an element that cannot contain text directly; a second, nested element must be opened first. Wrapper elements designate sets of elements that comprise a distinctive section of a finding aid, for example, the Descriptive Identification did . "Generic element" refers to elements common to many kinds of documents that contain information that does not specifically relate to the structural parts of a finding aid, e.g., address and date . "Formatting element" indicates elements that can be used to invoke special character or text presentation, such as block quotes, chronologies, and emphasis. When an element is required, that fact is also stated. Specific ISAD(G) data elements and/or MARC fields that relate to a given element are provided when applicable. For information on specified sequences of elements, consult the DTD itself. For example, you may wish to check the list of subelements in an XML authoring program or DTD visualization tool.

May contain:

Identifies what may occur within the element being defined. Elements are listed in alphabetical order by tag name. Elements may be empty (e.g., containing only an attribute); or they may contain text (called #PCDATA); other elements; or a mixture of text and other elements.

The abbreviation #PCDATA (parsed character data) means that text content is allowed directly inside of an element, but the text cannot include characters that would be interpreted by a parser as action codes. For example, a left angle bracket has to be represented as the character entity reference &lang; so that it is not misinterpreted as the start of an element name.

The list of nested elements usually includes more elements than are generally needed, because similar elements sharing the same content model travel together as a group. This is a device to ease the authoring of a DTD and to aid machine processing of encoded documents. For example, once one reference element such as ref is listed under May contain, all the reference elements appear, including archref , bibref , extptr , extref , and ptr , even though the simple internal ref element is the most likely choice in a particular context.

May occur within:

Identifies all of the parent elements within which the described element may appear, listed in alphabetical order by tag name. This information conveys the sense of where and how often an element is available throughout the DTD. Definitions for parent elements may provide additional information about an element's usage.

Attributes:

Identifies all attributes that can be associated with an element. Attributes are represented in lowercase letters in XML coding, but the EAD Tag Library uses the convention of small capital letters to distinguish attributes from elements within the tag library context. See the EAD Attributes section of the tag library for definitions and additional information.

Examples:

Most element descriptions include a tagged example to indicate how attributes and elements can be used together. Most of the examples are taken from real finding aids; others have been specially constructed for the tag library. The examples illustrate any required sequences of elements, as in the case of subelements within the eadheader , or required attributes such as level in archdesc . In other cases, the examples are intended simply to show what is possible. Some examples have elipses, either between or within elements, where other elements or text have been omitted. Some elements have multiple examples-one may show very dense markup that uses numerous attributes while another may illustrate a minimalist approach to the markup. Either approach is valid in EAD, and it is up to the repository to determine the optimal level of markup based on institutional resources and/or consortial guidelines.

Attribute Definitions Introduction

Attributes are associated with most of the elements contained in EAD. These attributes reflect named properties of an element and may take on different values, depending on the context in which they occur. In order to set one or more attributes, an encoder should include the name of the attribute(s) within the same angle bracket as the start tag, together with the value(s) to which the attribute(s) is/are to be set. That is,

[tag] [attribute]="[value]"

[tag] [attribute1]="[value1]" [attribute2]="[value2]"

For example:

unitdate type="inclusive" 1937-1992 /unitdate

origination label="Creator:" Kenny, Elizabeth /origination unittitle encodinganalog="MARC 245" label="Title:" Elizabeth Kenny Papers /unittitle

Most attributes are optional and of the type called #IMPLIED. Two attributes are flagged as #REQUIRED, that is, the level attribute on archdesc and archdescgrp , and the cols attribute on tgroup , and two are #FIXED.

#IMPLIED The attribute is not required. If no attribute value is specified, a processing program may infer a value. #REQUIRED The attribute must be specified within the start tag for the element, e.g.: archdesc level="recordgrp" #FIXED The attribute has only one possible value which is specified by the DTD.

The value of attributes may be constrained by the DTD using specific attribute type values. For example, "id" attribute is of type ID, which constrains its value to a string beginning with an alphabetic character. An "id" value must be unique within the EAD instance within which it occurs, that is, no other tag in the entire document can have the same "id" value. Most EAD attributes are of type CDATA, which means that any text characters may be used.

CDATA Character data. No markup is recognized within a CDATA value except for character references. If the characters (less than), (greater than), & (ampersand), ' (apostrophe), or " (quotation) are used, they must be escaped using a character reference. ENTITY The name of a nonparsed entity that has been declared in the declaration subset of the document. For example, the entityref attribute must contain the name of an entity that has been declared in the declaration subset. Processing software can use the reference to the nonparsed entity to display the entity in the body of the text or in a new window. ID Unique identifier. For example, most elements have an ID attribute, so that a unique code can be established for and used to refer to that specific element. The content of the ID attribute is of the type called "id." Parsers verify that the value of attributes of type "id" are unique. ID attribute values must begin with an alpha, not numeric, character, either upper or lowercase, and may contain a . (period), : (colon), - (hyphen), or _ (underscore), but not a blank space. See also attributes of type "idref." IDREF ID reference value; previously entered ID of another element. For example, the container element has a parent attribute that can only be an "idref," which means it has a reference to a valid ID in another element. IDREFS List of ID reference values. NMTOKEN A name token, which can consist of any alpha or numeric character, as well as a . (period), : (colon), - (hyphen), or _ (underscore), but not a blank space. A number of attributes in EAD where a character string from a code list is to be used are nmtoken. NMTOKENS List of name tokens.

When the EAD DTD limits attribute values to a few choices, those values are declared in the DTD as part of what is known as a closed list, or technically, a name-token list. For example, the values of the attribute audience are limited to either "external" or "internal." Some attributes are associated with semi-closed lists. Such lists include those values believed to be the most useful in many contexts. Since the DTD creators could not anticipate all useful values for an attribute of this type, the list permits, by means of another attribute, the ability to provide an alternative value. For example, the dsc element includes several display types in a semi-closed list. Setting the type attribute to "othertype" makes it possible to specify in a separate othertype attribute display types that are not in the semi-closed list for type. The definitions for some values in the closed and semi-closed lists appear below.

The following is a complete list of all the attributes that occur in EAD, and some discussion of how they may be used. Attributes that are used for linking and for tabular display are defined in separate lists that follow the General Attributes list.

General Attributes

abbr An abbreviation for a word or phrase that is expressed in an expanded form in the text; used for searching and indexing purposes. Available only in the expan element.

actuate see Linking Attributes

align see Linking Attributes

althead An alternative short form of the heading element head that might be used, for example, to create a running header.

altrender The content of the element should be displayed or printed differently than the rendering established in a style sheet for other occurrences of the element. See also render.

arcrole see Linking Attributes

audience An attribute that helps control whether the information contained in the element should be available to all viewers or only to repository staff. Available for all elements except line break lb . The audience attribute can be set to "external" in archdesc to allow access to all the information about the materials being described in the finding aid, but specific elements within archdesc can be set to "internal" to reserve that information for repository access only. This feature is intended to assist application software in restricting access to particular information by explicitly coding data that is potentially sensitive or may otherwise have a limited audience. Special software capability may be needed, however, to prevent the export of an element marked "internal" when a whole finding aid is displayed in a networked environment.

Values are: external (default value) internal

authfilenumber A number that identifies the authority file record for an access term drawn from that authority file. If this attribute is used, the source attribute should also be used to identify the authority file.

calendar System of reckoning time, such as the Gregorian calendar or Julian calendar. The value "gregorian" is the default. Available in date and unitdate .

certainty The level of confidence for the information given in a date or unitdate element. For example: <date certainty="approximate"> 1920 </date>

char see Linking Attributes

charoff see Linking Attributes

colname see Linking Attributes

colnum see Linking Attributes

cols see Linking Attributes

colsep see Linking Attributes

colwidth see Linking Attributes

continuation For ordered lists, i.e., those with a type attribute of "ordered," and optionally with a numeration attribute, the continuation attribute specifies whether the list numeration is to continue with the numeration of the preceding list or start over. If this attribute is not present, starting over is implied.

Values are: continues starts

countrycode A unique code for the country in which the materials being described are held. Codes are to be taken from ISO 3166-1 Codes for the Representation of Names of Countries , column A2. Available in eadid and unitid .

countryencoding The authoritative source or rules for values supplied in the countrycode attribute in eadid and unitid . Available only in eadheader , the countryencoding attribute should be set to "iso3166-1."

datechar Term characterizing the nature of dates, such as dates of creation, accumulation, or modification. Available only in unitdate .

dateencoding The authoritative source or rules for values provided in the normal attribute in date and unitdate . The dateencoding attribute should be set to "iso8601."

encodinganalog A field or element in another descriptive encoding system to which an EAD element or attribute is comparable. Mapping elements from one system to another may help build a single user interface that can index comparable information in bibliographic records and finding aids. The mapping designations may also help a repository harvest selected data from a finding aid to build a basic catalog record. When possible, subfields as well as fields should be specified, e.g., subfields within MARC fields. If the relatedencoding attribute in ead , eadheader , or archdesc is not used to identify the encoding system from which fields are specified in the encodinganalog attribute, then include the system designation in encodinganalog.

Example:

origination corpname encodinganalog="MARC 110" Waters Studio /corpname /origination

archdesc relatedencoding="MARC" origination persname encodinganalog="100$a$q$d$e" source="lcnaf" Waters, E. C. (Elizabeth Cat), 1870-1944, photographer /persname /origination /archdesc

entityref see Linking Attributes

era Period during which years are numbered and dates reckoned, such as A.D. or C.E. The value "ce" is the default.

expan The full form of an abbreviation or acronym in an element's text; used for indexing and searching purposes. Available only in the abbr element.

findaidstatus The extent to which the encoded finding aid is a finished document. Available only in the eadheader element.

frame see Linking Attributes

from see Linking Attributes

href see Linking Attributes

id see Linking Attributes

identifier A machine-readable unique identifier. Available in eadid and unitid .

label A display label for an element can be supplied using this attribute when a meaningful label cannot be derived by the style sheet from the element name or when a heading element head is not available. This attribute is available in all did subelements.

langcode The three-lettter code for the language in which an abstract is written abstract , for the language of the finding aid and the language of the materials language . The codes should be taken from ISO639-2b, as specified in the langencoding attribute in eadheader .

langencoding Language encoding for EAD instances subscribes to ISO 639-2b Codes for the Representation of Names of Languages , so the langencoding attribute value in eadheader should be "iso639-2b." The codes themselves are specified in the langcode attribute in abstract or language , as appropriate.

level The hierarchical level of the materials being described by the element. This attribute is available in archdesc , where the highest level of material represented in the finding aid must be declared (e.g., collection, fonds, record group), and in c and c01-12 (e.g., subgroup, series, file). If none of the values in the semi-closed list are appropriate, the value "otherlevel" may be chosen and the term specified in the otherlevel attribute.

Values are: collection fonds class recordgrp series subfonds subgrp subseries file item otherlevel

linktype see Linking Attributes

mainagencycode A code in eadid compliant with ISO/DIS 15511 Information and Documentation International Standard Identifier for Libraries and Related Organizations (ISIL). Values should be supplied without the country code, which should be placed instead in the countrycode attribute.

mark For lists with a type attribute value "marked," the mark attribute may be used to provide a character(s) or character entity(ies) to mark each list entry. For example, a bulleted list: list type="marked" mark="•"

morerows see Linking Attributes

nameend see Linking Attributes

namest see Linking Attributes

normal A consistent form, usually from a controlled vocabulary list, of the content of the following elements can be provided to facilitate retrieval: corpname , famname , function , genreform , geogname , name , occupation , persname , subject , and title . In date and unitdate , the normal attribute follows ISO 8601 Representation of Dates and Times, as specified in the dateencoding attribute in eadheader .

numeration For lists with a type attribute of "ordered," the numeration attribute specifies the type of numeration.

Values are: arabic upperalpha loweralpha upperroman lowerroman

otherlevel The hierarchical level of the materials described in archdesc , c , c01-12 , and archdescgrp can be specified when the semi-closed list in the level attribute (e.g., collection, fonds, series, etc.) does not contain an appropriate term. Set level to "otherlevel" and then supply the preferred term in the otherlevel attribute.

othertype The type attribute in dsc has a semi-closed list, of which one of the values is "othertype." If the format of the dsc is not one of the types in the semi-closed list, one can be specified in the othertype attribute.

parent see Linking Attributes

pgwide see Linking Attributes

placement The location of the information in the runner element is displayed in print (foot or head) or as a digital watermark (background).

Values are: foot head background

publicid A formal public identifier (FPI) in eadid that includes the owner name and an object name. Defined in ISO/IEC 9070:1991, the FPI is intended to be universally unique, with each owner name being unique, and each object name unique within the name domain controlled by the owner.

relatedencoding A descriptive encoding system, such as MARC, ISAD(G), or Dublin Core, to which certain EAD elements can be mapped using the encodinganalog attribute. relatedencoding is available in ead , eadheader , and archdesc ; the eadheader elements might be mapped to Dublin Core elements while the body of the finding aid ( archdesc ) might instead be mapped to MARC or ISAD(G).

render The formatting of the content of an element is controlled for display and print purposes. Available in emph , title , and titleproper . See also altrender.

Values are: altrender bold doublequote bolddoublequote bolditalic boldsinglequote boldsmcaps boldunderline italic nonproport singlequote smcaps sub super underline

repositorycode A unique code in unitid indicating the repository responsible for intellectual control of the materials being described. The code should be taken from ISO/DIS 15511 Information and documentation?International Standard Identifier for Libraries and Related Organizations (ISIL), as specified in the eadheader repositoryencoding attribute.

repositoryencoding The authoritative source or rules for values supplied in the mainagencycode attribute in eadid and the repositorycode attribute in unitid . Available only in eadheader , the repositoryencoding attribute should be set to "iso15511."

role A contextual role or relationship for the person, family, corporate body, or geographic location within persname , famname , corpname , geogname , and name , elements. In linking elements such as ptr , information that explains to application software the part that a remote resource plays in a link.

rowsep see Linking Attributes

rules Name of the descriptive rules or conventions that govern the formulation of the content of the element.

scriptcode The three-letter code for the writing script used with a given language. The code should be taken from ISO 15924 Code for the Representation of Names of Scripts. Available in language .

scriptencoding The authoritative source or rules for values supplied in the scriptcode attribute in language . Available only in eadheader , the scriptencoding attribute should be set to "iso15924."

target see Linking Attributes

title see Linking Attributes

to see Linking Attributes

tpattern see Linking Attributes

type The type attribute is available for a number of elements; its characteristics vary depending on the element to which it applies. Some instances of type have closed lists (e.g., unitdate ), others have semi-closed lists (e.g., dsc ), and most permit character data (CDATA) (e.g., accessrestrict and physloc ). The semi-closed list in dsc contains a value of "othertype," which allows the specification of an appropriate value in the othertype attribute. See individual element descriptions for specific uses for this attribute.

unit Any unit of measurement may be expressed in dimensions , extent , and physfacet .

url An absolute (http://www.loc.gov/ead/ms99999.xml) or relative (ms99999.xml) Uniform Resource Locator. Available only in eadid .

urn A Uniform Resource Name intended to serve as a persistent, location-independent, resource identifier.

valign see Linking Attributes

xmlns XML Namespace declaration for the EAD standard, which should be set to "urn:isbn:1-931666-00-8." Available only in ead and eadgrp , but must be manually activated.

xpointer see Linking Attributes

Linking Attributes

The following attributes apply to elements used for linking.

actuate A control that defines whether a link occurs automatically or must be requested by the user. It is used in conjunction with the show attribute to determine link behavior.

Values are: onload (element is displayed automatically) onrequest (element is displayed if user requests) actuateother (some other action occurs with respect to the link) actuatenone (no action occurs with respect to the link

arcrole URI preference that identifies a resource that describes some property of an arc-type or simple-type linking element.

entityref The name of a nonparsed entity declared in the declaration subset of the document that points to a machine-readable version of the cited reference.

from Resource from which traversal may be initiated, that is, a starting resource, in an extended link. Available only in arc .

href The locator for a remote resource in a simple or extended link. An href takes the form of a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). If no URI is specified, the locator is assumed to be within the document that contains the linking element.

id An identifier used to name the element so that it can be referred to, or referenced from, somewhere else. Each ID within a document must have a unique value. The ID attribute regularizes the naming of the element and thus facilitates building links between it and other resources.

linktype A fixed or default value that identifies the element as XLINK-compatible. Types are, simple, extended, locator, or resource.

parent A pointer to another container that holds the container item being described in the current element, e.g., points to the element that describes the box in which a folder is housed. Available in container and physloc .

role Information that explains to application software the part that a remote resource plays in a link.

show A control that defines whether a remote resource that is the target of a link appears at the point of the link, replaces the existing link, or appears in a new window. It is used in conjunction with the actuate attribute to determine link behavior.

Values are: embed (the target resource displays at the point of the link) new (the target resource appears in a new window) replace (the target resource replaces the local resource that initiated the link) showother (some other action takes place with respect to the target resource) shownone (no target resource displays)

target A pointer to the ID of another element.

title Information that serves as a viewable caption which explains to users the part that a resource plays in a link.

to Specification of a resource that may be traversed to, that is, an ending resource, in an extended link.

xpointer The locator for a remote resource in a simple or locator link. The xpointer attribute takes the form of a Uniform Resource Identifier plus a reference, formulated in xpointer syntax, to a sub-resource of the remote resource. xpointer enables linking to specific sections of a document that are relative, i.e., based on their position in the document or their content, rather than by reference to a specific identifier such as an ID.

Tabular Display Attributes

The following attributes apply to elements that can be used to format tables and other columnar structures.

align Horizontal position of the text within a column. Available in colspec and entry .

Values are: left (flush left) right (flush right) center (centered in the column) justify (flush both left and right) char (alignment on a single character such as a decimal, as positioned by charoff)

char Used for horizontal alignment of a single character, such as decimal alignment. This attribute names the character on which the text will be aligned, for example a decimal point, an asterisk, or an em-dash. Available in colspec and entry .

charoff Character offset, used with horizontal character alignment, such as decimal alignment. When the align attribute value is "char," this is the percentage of the current column width to the left edge of the alignment character. Value is a number or starts with a number. Available in colspec and entry .

colname Name of a column in which an entry appears. Value is one "word" made up of letters and numbers with no spaces inside it. Available in colspec and entry .

colnum The number of the column, counting from 1 at the left of the table. Value is a number. Available in colspec .

cols The number of columns in a table. Required in tgroup .

colsep If the columns in the table are to be separated by vertical rules.

Possible colsep values are: 1 (display a rule to the right of the column) 0 (no rule is displayed)

colwidth Width of the column measured in fixed units or relative proportions. Fixed measure is in the form "number followed by unit," where unit is "pt" for point, "cm" for centimeters, "in" for inches, etc. (i.e., "2in" for 2 inches). Proportional measure is in the form "number followed by asterisk" (i.e., "5*" for five times the proportion). All integers are positive. Use values that are appropriate to the software that governs the display of the resulting table such as a web browser or XSL format objects processor. Available in colspec .

frame Are there rules surrounding the table when the table is printed or displayed?

The values of the frame attribute indicate the position of the external rules: top (a horizontal rule below the title) sides (left and right vertical rules) topbot (horizontal rules top and bottom) bottom (horizontal rule after the last row) all (table is printed in a box) none (no rules surround the table)

morerows Number of additional rows in a vertical straddle. Value is a number; default value is "0" to indicate one row only, no vertical span. Available in entry only.

nameend Name of the rightmost column of a span. The value must be a column name, as defined by the colname attribute on a Column Specification colspec element. Available in entry only.

A very brief summary of the materials being described, used primarily to encode bits of biographical or historical information about the creator and abridged statements about the scope, content, arrangement, or other descriptive details about the archival unit or one of its components.

Within the <archdesc><did>, the <abstract> is often extracted from the longer descriptions found in <bioghist> and <scopecontent>. Its purpose is to help readers identify quickly those materials they need to explore at greater length. Within the <c><did>, the <abstract> may describe unique characteristics of an individual Component. This information may have aspects of <arrangement>, <bioghist>, <physdesc>, and <scopecontent>, which are not substantive enough to tag individually under those elements.

Use of the type and encodinganalog attributes on <abstract> may assist in extracting information for such MARC equivalents as summary note (520$a) and biographical or historical data (545$a). The langcode attribute can be used when abstracts are provided in more than one language.

The immediate source of the materials being described and the circumstances under which they were received. Includes donations, transfers, purchases, and deposits.

After opening a Paragraph <p> within <acqinfo>, optional subelements may be used to tag separately such common acquisition information as the name of the source, e.g., <persname> or <corpname>; the <date> the materials were received; or the accession number <num> assigned to them. The <address> element could be used to document the address of the source, and the audience attribute could be set to "internal," if the address information should only be available to authorized staff. Note that the accession number may also serve as the <unitid> and be encoded as such within a <did>.

For detailed information about items acquired and then subsequently alienated from the materials being described, the Separated Material <separatedmaterial> element can be used. It designates items related by provenance that have been physically removed from the materials being described.

The Custodial History <custodhist> element can be used for information about the chain of ownership before the materials reached the immediate source of acquisition.

A generic element for information about the place where someone or something is located and may be reached. Examples include a postal address for a repository, or the electronic mail address and phone number of the party granting publication permission.

Consider using an entity reference to store address information that occurs in many finding aids, as it is easier to update the information when located in a single, shared file. The entity reference can contain both the EAD elements and their content. A style sheet can also be used to supply this kind of information.

A wrapper element for the bulk of an EAD document instance, which describes the content, context, and extent of a body of archival materials, including administrative and supplemental information that facilitates use of the materials. Information is organized in unfolding, hierarchical levels that allow for a descriptive overview of the whole to be followed by more detailed views of the parts, designated by the element Description of Subordinate Components <dsc>. Data elements available at the <archdesc> level are repeated at the various component levels within <dsc>, and information is inherited from one hierarchical level to the next.

The Descriptive Identification <did> element is required to appear in <archdesc> before presenting more detailed descriptions in <bioghist>, <scopecontent>, and <dsc>, in order to provide first a basic description of the archival materials.

The <archdesc> element has several specialized attributes. The required level attribute identifies the character of the whole unit, for example, "class," "collection," "fonds," "recordgrp," "series," "subfonds," "subgrp," "subseries," or "otherlevel." This attribute is comparable to ISAD(G) data element 3.1.4 and MARC field 351 subfield c.

The type attribute can be used to categorize the finding aid as an inventory, register, or other format.

The <archdescgrp> may contain all data elements available in <archdesc>, except for <dsc>; the <dscgrp> subelement fills the role of <dsc>.

The outermost wrapper element for an information access tool known generically as a finding aid. A finding aid establishes physical and intellectual control over many types of archival materials and helps researchers understand and access the materials being described. The <ead> element defines a particular instance of a document encoded with the EAD Document Type Definition. It contains a required <eadheader>, optional <frontmatter>, and a required <archdesc> element, in that order.

The audience attribute value may be set to "external" to display data in all subelements, unless the value is changed for a specific element. To facilitate use of EAD as XML Schema, an xmlns attribute may be switched on in the default DTD by making the following change:

<!ENTITY % namespace to <!ENTITY % namespace 'IGNORE' 'INCLUDE' > > A separate Document Type Definition called EAD Group can be used to bundle <ead> finding aids that describe different parts of a collection that have been dispersed among various institutions or custodial units.

A wrapper element in the EAD Group Document Type Definition (DTD), which allows several archival finding aids encoded with the EAD DTD to be combined into a single document. The EAD Group DTD was designed as a "super wrapper" for multiple finding aids describing materials dispersed among various administrative bodies, i.e., among multiple repositories or among different custodial divisions within a single repository. The EAD Group approach makes it possible to summarize the dispersed materials in <archdescgrp> and to connect closely finding aids that should be viewed together to understand the dispersed materials. Examples of an <eadgrp> might be a set of finding aids to Mark Twain papers held in several repositories, or finding aids for moving image material and manuscript material from a single collection that was separated according to formats among custodial departments.

The <eadgrp> begins with a required <eadheader>, followed by an optional <frontmatter>, then a required <archdescgrp>. The <archdescgrp> contains not only typical <archdesc> subelements such as <did> and <bioghist>, but a special <dscgrp> to bundle the <ead> instances as subordinate components.

The EAD Group DTD should not be used for assembling documentation about multiple accessions of a single collection or fonds held by a single administrative unit; such accessions should be described in a single <ead> instance.

Use the <ead><archref> element to link between a finding aid for a large body of records and the finding aids for its subordinate series. One example of this situation is a government agency record group with series so large that each series has a separate finding aid.

To facilitate use of EAD Group as XML Schema, an xmlns attribute may be switched on in the default DTD by making the following change:

<!ENTITY % namespace to <!ENTITY % namespace 'IGNORE' 'INCLUDE' > >

May Contain: archdescgrp eadheader frontmatter

Attributes altrender #IMPLIED, CDATA audience #IMPLIED, external, internal id #IMPLIED, ID relatedencoding #IMPLIED, CDATA eadheader EAD Header

A wrapper element for bibliographic and descriptive information about the finding aid document rather than the archival materials being described. The <eadheader> is modeled on the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) header element to encourage uniformity in the provision of metadata across document types.

The <eadheader> is required, because information that was often unrecorded for a local paper finding aid is essential in a machine-readable environment. Four subelements are available, which must occur in the following order: <eadid> (required), <filedesc> (required), <profiledesc> (optional), and <revisiondesc> (optional). These elements and their subelements provide: a unique identification code for the finding aid; bibliographic information, such as the author and title of the finding aid; information about the encoding of the finding aid; and statements about significant revisions.

The findaidstatus attribute can be used to indicate how complete or polished the information in the finding aid is. The countryencoding, dateencoding, langencoding, repositoryencoding, and scriptencoding attribute are used to specify the ISO standards from which code values for other attributes, such as countrycode in <eadid> and <unitid>, are taken.

Some or all of the <eadheader> subelements can be used to display title page information. Alternatively, the <eadheader> can be blocked from display by setting the audience attribute to "internal" and using the <frontmatter> <titlepage> elements to create a title page.

A required subelement of <eadheader> that designates a unique code for a particular EAD finding aid document.

Two of the attributes, countrycode and mainagencycode, are required to make the <eadid> compliant with ISAD(G) element 3.1.1. mainagencycode provides the ISO 15511 code for the institution that maintains the finding aid (which may not be the same as the institution that is the custodian of the materials described). countrycode supplies the ISO 3166-1 code for the country of the maintenance agency. In addition to these two attributes, it is recommended that repositories also use at least one of the following attributes: url, publicid, or identifier to make the eadid globally unique. publicid should be a Formal Public Identifier, url an absolute or relative address, and identifier a machine-readable unique identifier for the finding aid file. (The proper syntax for publicid is defined in ISO/IEC 9070:1991 Information technology - SGML support facilities - Registration procedures for public text owner identifiers.)

A version of the finding aid or other bibliographic entity. When used in the <editionstmt> subelement of the <eadheader> or in the <titlepage> subelement of <frontmatter>, the <edition> refers to the version of the finding aid. A new edition of a finding aid represents substantial additions or changes and should supersede previous online versions. When used in a Bibliographic Reference <bibref>, the <edition> element specifies the version of a published work.

A formatting element that designates the contents of a cell in a table. A cell is the intersection of a row and a column. The entry attributes control cell spanning, alignment of the contents, and the rules on the cell edges. The attributes can be specified for entry or inherited from the nearest of the following table elements: table, tgroup, colspec, tbody, or row.

Three attributes are used together to force horizontal alignment on a specific character, such as a decimal point. The align attribute must be set to "char" (align="char"). The char attribute should be set to the specific character on which the text will align (for example the decimal point, char="."). The charoff attribute controls the position of the alignment by naming the percentage of the current column width that is to the left of the alignment character (for example, charoff="30").

The extent of a horizontal span is determined by naming the first column (namest) and the last column (nameend) in the span.

By convention, the specified rule is printed or displayed to the right of the column. External rules are specified using the frame attribute of the <table> element, horizontal rules are specified using rowsep.

The proper noun designation for a group of persons closely related by blood or persons who form a household. Includes single families and family groups, e.g., Patience Parker Family and Parker Family.

All names in a finding aid do not have to be tagged. One option is to tag those names for which access other than basic, undifferentiated keyword retrieval is desired. Use of authorized forms is recommended to facilitate access to the names within and across finding aid systems. The <famname> element may be used in text elements such as <p>. To indicate a family name with major representation in the materials being described, nest <famname> within the <controlaccess> element.

The role attribute can be used to specify the relationship(s) of the name to the materials being described, for example, "compiler," "creator," "collector," or "subject." The normal attribute can be used to provide the authority form of a name that has been encoded with <famname> in narrative text, e.g., within a paragraph. The authfilenumber attribute can be used to identify a link to an authority file record that has more information about the name or cross references for alternative forms of the name and related names. Use the source attribute to specify the vocabulary from which the name has been taken and/or the rules attribute to specify the descriptive rules followed when forming the name.

See also the related elements <controlaccess>, <corpname>, <persname>, and <name>.

The <famname> element is comparable to MARC fields 100, 600, 700.

A required subelement of the <eadheader> that bundles much of the bibliographic information about the finding aid, including its author, title, subtitle, and sponsor (all in the <titlestmt>), as well as the edition, publisher, publishing series, and related notes (encoded separately).

This element has been modeled on a Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) DTD element and includes the following subelements, in this order: a required <titlestmt>, an optional <editionstmt>, an optional <publicationstmt>, an optional <seriesstmt>, and an optional <notestmt>. The <filedesc> provides information that is helpful for citing a finding aid in a bibliography or footnote. Institutions that catalog finding aids separately from the archival materials being described might use the <filedesc> elements to build a basic bibliographic record for the finding aid.

Do not confuse with the <profiledesc> element, which describes the encoding of the finding aid. Do not confuse with <archdesc> elements, which refer to the materials being described rather than the finding aid itself.

Information about any classification scheme used for arranging, storing, and retrieving the described materials by the parties originally responsible for creating or compiling them. A filing plan is usually identified by the type of system used, e.g., alphabetical, numerical, alpha-numerical, decimal, color-coded, etc. It is often hierarchical and may include the filing guidelines of the originating organization. Additional types include a drawing of a room layout or a scientific scheme.

Do not confuse with Other Finding Aid <otherfindaid> which contains references to additional descriptions of the material rather than descriptions of classification schemes by which the materials might still be arranged.

In EAD Version 1.0 <fileplan> was a subelement of Adjunct Descriptive Data <add>, which has been deprecated in EAD 2002 (see Appendix B). The new Description Group <descgrp> element, which can group any of the <did>-level elements (except the Description of Subordinate Components <dsc>), may be used to wrap elements where a group heading is desirable. The <descgrp> element can be used to replace <add> when converting finding aids encoded in EAD V1.0 to EAD 2002.

A wrapper element that bundles prefatory text found before the start of the Archival Description <archdesc>. It focuses on the creation, publication, or use of the finding aid rather than information about the materials being described. Examples include a title page, preface, dedication, and instructions for using a finding aid. The optional <titlepage> element within <frontmatter> can be used to repeat selected information from the <eadheader> to generate a title page that follows local preferences for sequencing information. The other <frontmatter> structures, such as a dedication, are encoded as Text Divisions <div>s, with a <head> element containing word(s) that identify the nature of the text.

Terms for the spheres of activities and processes that generated the described materials. Such terms often provide useful access points to the materials, especially for corporate, government, or institutional records. Examples include: collecting taxes and entertaining.

All functions mentioned in a finding aid do not have to be tagged. One option is to tag those functions for which access other than basic, undifferentiated keyword retrieval is desired. Use of controlled vocabulary forms is recommended to facilitate access to the functions within and across finding aid systems. The <function> element may be used in text elements such as <p>. To indicate a function with major representation in the materials being described, nest <function> within the <controlaccess> element.

Use the source attribute to specify the vocabulary from which the term has been taken. The authfilenumber attribute can be used to identify a link to an authority file record that has more information about the function or cross references for alternative forms of a function term.

Do not confuse with <occupation>, which designates a type of work or business and is often associated with personal papers.

See also the related access elements under <controlaccess>.

The <function> element is comparable to MARC field 657.

A term that identifies the types of material being described, by naming the style or technique of their intellectual content (genre); order of information or object function (form); and physical characteristics. Examples include: account books, architectural drawings, portraits, short stories, sound recordings, and videotapes.

All genres and forms of material mentioned in a finding aid do not have to be tagged. One option is to tag those <genreform> terms for which access other than basic, undifferentiated keyword retrieval is desired. Use of controlled vocabulary terms is recommended to facilitate access to the information within and across finding aid systems. The <genreform> element may be used in text elements such as <p>. To indicate a function with major representation in the materials being described, nest <genreform> within the <controlaccess> element. To associate a <genreform> term with more detailed physical characteristics, use <genreform> within the <physdesc> or <physfacet> elements.

Use the source attribute to specify the vocabulary from which the term has been taken. The normal attribute can be used to provide the authority form of a term that has been encoded with <genreform> in narrative text, e.g., within a paragraph. The authfilenumber attribute can be used to identify a link to an authority file record that has more information about the term or cross references for alternative forms of a genre term.

See also the related access elements under <controlaccess>.

The <genreform> element is comparable to ISAD(G) data element 3.1.5 and MARC field 655, and, when used in conjunction with <extent>, to MARC field 300.

The proper noun designation for a place, natural feature, or political jurisdiction. Examples include: Appalachian Mountains; Baltimore, Md.; Chinatown, San Francisco; and Kew Gardens, England.

All names in a finding aid do not have to be tagged. One option is to tag those names for which access other than basic, undifferentiated keyword retrieval is desired. Use of controlled vocabulary names is recommended to facilitate access to the names within and across finding aid systems. The <geogname> element may be used in text elements such as <p>. To indicate a place name with major representation in the materials being described, nest <geogname> within the <controlaccess> element.

The role attribute can be used to specify the relationship(s) of the name to the materials being described, for example, "subject." The normal attribute can be used to provide the authority form of a term that has been encoded with <geogname> in narrative text, e.g., within a paragraph.

A formatting element within <listhead> that designates the heading over the second column in a multicolumn list.

Information relating to the publication or distribution of a work cited in a Bibliographic Reference <bibref> or <unittitle>. In both elements the place of publication, name of the publisher, and date of publication can be encoded as either plain text or wrapped in the <imprint> subelements <geogname>, <publisher>, and <date>. It is seldom, if ever, appropriate to use <imprint> in a citation for an unpublished work cited in a <bibref>.

A list of key terms and reference pointers that have been assembled to enhance access to the materials being described. The <index> can also serve as a helpful alphabetical overview of subjects, correspondents, photographers, or other entities represented in the collection. This back-of-the volume <index> may provide hypertext links, or it may note the container numbers useful for locating the position in the finding aid where the indexed material appears.

The <index> is assumed to be text that has to be tagged, not text generated automatically from the encoded finding aid. In some cases, the <index> repeats terms and names found elsewhere in the finding aid. In other cases, such as in some literary manuscript collections, the <index> may be the only place where a name is listed, and the references point to one or more files, which include letters from that person or corporate body, but which are described only in general terms, e.g., "Correspondents T-Z."

The <index> should contain <indexentry> elements, which consist of an access element, such as <name> or <subject>, followed by a Pointer <ptr>, Pointer Group <ptrgrp>, or Reference <ref> element. Plain text cannot be used in an <indexentry>. If the <indexentry> elements are expected to provide access points other than basic keyword retrieval, use authority file terms to facilitate access to the information within and across finding aid systems.

In EAD Version 1.0 <index> was a subelement of Adjunct Descriptive Data <add>, which has been deprecated in EAD 2002 (see Appendix B). The new Description Group <descgrp> element, which can group any of the <did>-level elements (except the Description of Subordinate Components <dsc>), may be used to wrap elements where a group heading is desirable. The <descgrp> element can be used to replace <add> when converting finding aids encoded in EAD V1.0 to EAD 2002.

A formatting element that pairs an index term with one or more linking elements. Each <indexentry> contains an access element, such as <namegrp> or <subject>; an optional <note> that can divide the entry into subcategories, e.g., "during office" and "family life"; followed by optional Pointer <ptr>, Pointer Group <ptrgrp>, or Reference <ref> elements. Plain text cannot be used in an <indexentry>. If the <indexentry> subelements are expected to provide access points other than basic keyword retrieval, use controlled vocabulary terms to facilitate access to information within and across finding aid systems, with the source attribute to indicate which vocabulary provided the term.

Use the Name Group <namegrp> element to bundle access element entries, e.g., several <famname> and <persname> elements, that share the same <ref>, <ptr>, or <ptrgrp> element.

Use the Pointer Group <ptrgrp> element to bundle several <ref> or <ptr> links to a single access term. Use the <ptr> element when no text is needed with the link. Use the <ref> element when text as well as a link are needed.

A formatting element used in one of three contexts: as an entry in a simple, random, or ordered <list>; as part of a <defitem> inside a definition list; or as an entry within the <change> element. In the first instance, the <item> can be a number, word, or phrase. In a definition list, which is usually displayed as two columns, a <defitem> pairs a <label> with a corresponding <item> containing text that defines, describes, or explains the terms or other text tagged as the <label>. In the <eadheader> <revisiondesc> <change> element, the <item> designates information about a revision to the finding aid and is often paired with a <date>.

Do not confuse with <chronitem>, which designates entries in a Chronology List <chronlist>.

See also related elements <list>, <defitem>, and <change>.

A formatting element that identifies the term or concept being described, defined, or explained in a Definition List Item <defitem>. The <defitem> can be thought of as an entry in a <list> that is usually displayed in two columns: <label> followed by <item>. Each list item <defitem> contains a term or concept (called a <label>) and a definition, description, or explanation of that <label> (called an <item>).

Do not confuse with the attribute called label, which identifies the kind of information in an element for public display in the <did> subelements.

A formatting element that contains a series of words or numerals (called <item>s) separated from one another and arranged in a linear, often vertical sequence.

The type attribute is used to identify and format the list. The choices are: "simple," "deflist," "marked," and "ordered." In a "simple" list, <item>s are not numbered or bulleted. In a "deflist" or definition list, each <defitem> pairs a <label> with a corresponding <item> containing the text that defines, describes, or explains the term or other text tagged as the <label>. In a "marked" list, the sequence of the list items is not critical, and a bullet, box, dash, or other character is displayed at the beginning of each <item>. In an "ordered" list, the sequence of the list <item>s is important, and each list <item> is lettered or numbered.

The proper noun or noun phrase designation for an entity that is difficult to tag more specifically as a <corpname>, <famname>, <geogname>, <persname>, or <title>. The <name> element may be used in place of the more specific access elements when it is not known what kind of name is being described or when a high degree of precision is unnecessary. For example, the <name> element might be used in an <indexentry> when it is not clear if the name "Bachrach" refers to a person or a photographic corporation.

All names in a finding aid do not have to be tagged. One option is to tag those names for which access other than basic, undifferentiated keyword retrieval is desired. Use of controlled vocabulary names is recommended to facilitate access to the names within and across finding aid systems. The <name> element may be used in text elements such as <p>. To indicate a name with major representation in the materials being described, nest <name> within the <controlaccess> element.

The role attribute can be used to specify the relationship(s) of the name to the materials being described, for example, "subject" or "photographer." The source attribute can be used to specify the vocabulary from which the name has been taken. The rules attribute can be used to specify the descriptive rules followed when forming the name, such as AACR2R.

See also the related access elements under <controlaccess>.

The <name> element is comparable to MARC field 720, when it is not from a controlled vocabulary.

A formatting element used in an <indexentry> to group access element entries that share the same <ref>, <ptr>, or <ptrgrp> element. A <note> is available to divide a name or term into subcategories, for example, "during office" and "family life."

A generic element that provides a short statement explaining the text, indicating the basis for an assertion, or citing the source of a quotation or other information. Used both for general comments and as an annotation for the text in a finding aid. Not used when more specific content designation elements are appropriate, e.g., <abstract>, <altformavail>, <archref>, or <scopecontent>. Do not confuse with Other Descriptive Data <odd> element, which is used within <archdesc> and <c> to designate information that is more than a short comment in a <note>.

The placement of a <note> is dependent on the design of the document and the purpose of the <note>. A <note> may appear at the end of the text as endnotes, at the foot of a section as footnotes or embedded within the text. One or more <note> elements may be grouped in a <notestmt> element in the <filedesc> portion of the <eadheader>. The actuate and show attribute can be used to mask a <note> from display until it is requested by a finding aid user.

The <note> element is comparable to ISAD(G) data element 3.6.1 and MARC field 500.

A term identifying a type of work, profession, trade, business, or avocation significantly reflected in the materials being described.

All occupations in a finding aid do not have to be tagged. One option is to tag those occupations for which access other than basic, undifferentiated keyword retrieval is desired. Use of controlled vocabulary forms is recommended to facilitate access to occupations within and across finding aid systems. The <occupation> element may be used in text elements such as <p>. To indicate an occupation with major representation in the described materials, nest <occupation> within the <controlaccess> element.

Use the source attribute to specify the vocabulary from which the term has been taken. The normal attribute can be used to provide the authority form of a term that has been encoded with <occupation> in narrative text, e.g., within a paragraph. The authfilenumber attribute can be used to identify a link to an authority file record that has more information about the occupation.

Do not confuse with <function>, which designates the spheres of activities and processes that generated the described materials, e.g., collecting taxes or entertaining.

Do not confuse with the role attribute available on the various name elements, e.g., <corpname>, <persname>, <famname>, etc., which may be used to specify the relationship of a name to the described materials, e.g., "compiler," "creator," "collector," or "subject."

See also the related access terms under <controlaccess>.

The <occupation> element is comparable to MARC field 656.

An element for information about the described materials that is not easily incorporated into one of the other named elements within <archdesc> and <c>. When converting finding aids to an ideal EAD markup, some shifting of text or addition of data may be necessary to conform to the DTD's sequencing of elements and the consignment of certain elements to specific settings. The <odd> element helps to minimize conversion difficulties by designating, as "other," information that does not fit easily into one of EAD's more distinct categories.

Some situations in which <odd> may be used are when the information does not correspond to another element's definition; when the information is of such mixed content as to make a single classification difficult; and when shifting the information to permit more specific content designation would be too costly or burdensome for the finding aid encoder. The first situation may occur especially when additional narrative description is required beyond what is included in the <bioghist> and <scopecontent> elements, such as when the finding aid is describing a computer file. Applying the type and encodinganalog attribute may help provide additional content specification in situations where the unspecified <odd> is used.

Despite its wide availability under <archdesc> and <c>, the <odd> element should be used with restraint and only after carefully considering the consequences that unspecified content designation poses for searching, retrieving, and displaying information in a networked environment.

Information about the individual or organization responsible for the creation, accumulation, or assembly of the described materials before their incorporation into an archival repository. The <origination> element may be used to indicate such agents as correspondents, records creators, collectors, and dealers. Using the label attribute may help identify for a finding aid reader the role of the originator, e.g., "creator," "collector," or "photographer." It is also possible to set the role attribute on the name elements that are available within <origination>, i.e., <corpname>, <famname>, <name>, and <persname>.

Information about additional or alternative guides to the described material, such as card files, dealers' inventories, or lists generated by the creator or compiler of the materials. It is used to indicate the existence of additional finding aids; it is not designed to encode the content of those guides.

Do not confuse with <fileplan>, which designates information about a particular type of access tool, known as a file plan, which explains the classification scheme used by the parties originally responsible for creating or compiling the described materials.

The <archref> element may be used to give a formal citation to the other finding aid or to link to an online version of it.

In EAD Version 1.0 <otherfindaid> was a subelement of Adjunct Descriptive Data <add>, which has been deprecated in EAD 2002 (see Appendix B). The new Description Group <descgrp> element, which can group any of the <did>-level elements (except the Description of Subordinate Components <dsc>), may be used to wrap elements where a group heading is desirable. The <descgrp> element can be used to replace <add> when converting finding aids encoded in EAD V1.0 to EAD 2002.

One or more sentences that form a logical prose passage. A paragraph may be a subdivision of a larger composition, or it may exist alone. It is usually typographically distinct: A line space is often left blank before it; the text begins on a new line; and the first letter of the first word is often indented, enlarged, or both. The <p> element is an important textual feature, which may be used inside of more than thirty other elements. The content model of a <p> provides access to thirty-three other elements, including reference and linking elements, formatting elements, controlled access elements, and some of the Descriptive Identification <did> subelements.

The proper noun designation for an individual, including any or all of that individual's forenames, surnames, honorific titles, and added names.

All names in a finding aid do not have to be tagged. One option is to tag those names for which access other than basic, undifferentiated keyword retrieval is desired. Use of controlled vocabulary forms is recommended to facilitate access to names within and across finding aid systems. The <persname> element may be used in text elements such as <p>. To indicate a personal name with major representation in the materials being described, nest <persname> within the <controlaccess> element.

The role attribute can be used to specify the relationship(s) of the name to the materials being described, for example, "compiler," "creator," "collector," or "subject." The normal attribute can be used to provide the authority form of a name that has been encoded with <persname> in narrative text, e.g., within a paragraph. Use the source attribute to specify the vocabulary from which the name has been taken. The authfilenumber attribute can be used to identify a link to an authority file record that has more information about the name or cross references for alternative forms of the name and related names. The rules attribute can be used to specify the descriptive rules followed when forming the name, such as AACR2R.

See also related elements <controlaccess>, <corpname>, <famname>, and <name>.

The <persname> element is comparable to MARC fields 100, 600, and 700.

A wrapper element for bundling information about the appearance or construction of the described materials, such as their dimensions, a count of their quantity or statement about the space they occupy, and terms describing their genre, form, or function, as well as any other aspects of their appearance, such as color, substance, style, and technique or method of creation. The information may be presented as plain text, or it may be divided into the <dimension>, <extent>, <genreform>, and <physfacet> subelements.

A <physdesc> subelement for information about an aspect of the appearance of the described materials, such as their color, style, marks, substances, materials, or techniques and methods of creation. It is used especially to note aspects of appearance that affect or limit use of the materials. It generally should not be used for aspects of physical description that are covered more directly by the <extent>, <dimensions>, and <genreform> elements, although use of <genreform> may be appropriate for further specification within some <physfacet> instances.

The type attribute may be used to specify which aspect of the physical appearance is being designated, e.g.,

Do not confuse with <container>, which is used to identify the cartons, boxes, reels, folders, and other storage devices used to hold the described materials. Also do not confuse with <repository>, which is used to identify the institution or agency responsible for providing intellectual access to the described materials.

Like all Descriptive Identification <did> subelements, the <physloc> element has a label attribute which may be used to provide a readily understandable heading for the element's content. The type attribute may also be used to identify the nature of the storage location. For security reasons, the audience attribute value may be set to "internal" to shield public access to storage location information.

An optional subelement of the <eadheader> that bundles information about the creation of the encoded version of the finding aid, including the name of the agent, place, and date of encoding. The <profiledesc> element also designates the predominant and minor languages used in the finding aid.

Do not confuse with <filedesc>, which bundles such bibliographic information as the title, author, publisher, edition, and publishing series of the finding aid.

For newer finding aids, the author and encoder may be the same person or institution, but for most older finding aids, someone other than the author will be converting and encoding the document. The encoder should be listed in the <creation> subelement of <profiledesc>, while the author should be identified in the <titlestmt> subelement of <filedesc>.

Within <profiledesc> the Descriptive Rules <descrules> element can be used to specify the descriptive code or guidelines followed in creating the finding aid.

A wrapper element for two or more Pointer <ptr> or Reference <ref> elements used in an <indexentry>. Pointers and references are internal links that provide for movement from one place in the finding aid to another place in the same finding aid. When encoding an index in EAD, a name or entry is generally listed only once, followed by a <ptrgrp> containing the series of pointers and references that link the name or entry to the places in the finding aid where it appears. The <ptrgrp> prevents the name or entry from having to appear multiple times in the index.

A wrapper element within the <filedesc> portion of <eadheader> for information concerning the publication or distribution of the encoded finding aid, including the publisher's name and address, the date of publication, and other relevant details. The <publicationstmt> may contain just text, laid out in Paragraphs <p>, or it may include the <publisher>, <address>, <date>, and <num> elements, which allow for more specific tagging of a publisher's name and address, the date of publication, and the number, if any, assigned to the published finding aid.

An internal linking element that provides for movement from one place in a finding aid to another place in the same finding aid. Unlike the internal Pointer <ptr> element, the <ref> element may contain text and subelements that identify or describe the referenced object. The <ref> element may be used in a variety of ways in an encoded finding aid.

Information about materials that are not physically or logically included in the material described in the finding aid but that may be of use to a reader because of an association to the described materials. Materials designated by this element are not related to the described material by provenance, accumulation, or use.

Do not confuse <relatedmaterial> with the element <separatedmaterial>, which provides information about materials that have been separated or physically removed from the described materials but that are related to them by provenance. Also do not confuse with <altformavail>, which encodes information about copies of the described materials, such as microforms, photocopies, and reproductions in digital formats. Do not confuse with <originalsloc>, which encodes information regarding the existence and location of the originals when the unit being described consists of copies.

In EAD Version 1.0 <relatedmaterial> was a subelement of Adjunct Descriptive data <add>, which has been deprecated in EAD 2002 (see Appendix B). The new Description Group <descgrp> element, which can group any of the <did>-level elements (except the Description of Subordinate Components <dsc>), may be used to wrap elements where a group heading is desirable. The <descgrp> element can be used to replace <add> when converting finding aids encoded in EAD V1.0 to EAD 2002.

The <relatedmaterial> element is comparable to ISAD(G) data element 3.5.3 and MARC field 544 with indicator 1.

The institution or agency responsible for providing intellectual access to the materials being described. The <corpname> element may be used within <repository> to encode the institution's proper name.

Although the repository providing intellectual access usually also has physical custody over the materials, this is not always the case. For example, an archives may assume responsibility for long-term intellectual access to electronic records, but the actual electronic data files or systems may continue to reside in the office where they were created and maintained, or they may be held for long-term storage by a unit such as a data library that is able to provide the appropriate technical facilities for storage and remounting. When it is clear that the physical custodian does not provide intellectual access, use <physloc> to identify the custodian and <repository> to designate the intellectual caretaker. When a distinction cannot be made, assume that the custodian of the physical objects also provides intellectual access to them and should be recognized as the <repository>.

The <repository> element is comparable to MARC field 852.

An optional subelement of the <eadheader> for information about changes or alterations that have been made to the encoded finding aid. The revisions may be recorded as part of a <list> or as a series of <change> elements. Like much of the <eadheader>, the <revisiondesc> element is modeled on an element found in the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) DTD.

An optional formatting element that provides for a header, footer, or watermark to appear on every page of a printed finding aid or throughout an electronic version. If a transparent image is desired as background, use <extptr> instead. The <runner> is available within <archdesc> and <archdescgrp> and must appear before the <did>. The placement attribute specifies whether the <runner> should appear as a header, footer, or watermark.

A prose statement summarizing the range and topical coverage of the described materials, often mentioning the form and arrangement of the materials and naming significant organizations, individuals, events, places, and subjects represented. The purpose of the <scopecontent> element is to assist readers in evaluating the potential relevance of the materials to their research. It may highlight particular strengths of, or gaps in, the described materials and may summarize in narrative form some of the descriptive information entered in other parts of the finding aid.

Additional <scopecontent> elements may be nested inside one another when a complex collection of materials is being described and separate headings are desired. For example, when a collection is received and processed in installments, individual scope and content notes may be created for each installment. EAD permits these separate narrative descriptions to be encoded as discrete <scopecontent> elements, but it also enables the encoder to gather the independent <scopecontent> notes within a single larger <scopecontent> reflective of the materials as a whole. Nested <scopecontent> elements might also occur when an institution encodes the first paragraph of a long scope and content note as a separate summary <scopecontent> with an encodinganalog attribute set to MARC field 520$a.

The <scopecontent> element is comparable to ISAD(G) data element 3.3.1 and MARC field 520.

Many of the letters are undated; some can be dated from the postmark on the envelope, but several letters were kept in the wrong envelopes; most of Paderewski's and Whistler's letters had become separated from their envelopes.</p> </scopecontent> separatedmaterial Separated Material

Information about materials that are associated by provenance to the described materials but that have been physically separated or removed. Items may be separated for various reasons, including the dispersal of special formats to more appropriate custodial units; the outright destruction of duplicate or nonessential material; and the deliberate or unintentional scattering of fonds among different repositories. Do not confuse with <relatedmaterial>, which is used to encode descriptions of or references to materials that are not physically or logically included in the material described in the finding aid but that may be of use to a reader because of an association to the described materials. Items encoded as <relatedmaterial> are not related to the described material by provenance, accumulation, or use.

In EAD Version 1.0 <separatedmaterial> was a subelement of Adjunct Descriptive Data <add>, which has been deprecated in EAD 2002 (see Appendix B). The new Description Group <descgrp> element, which can group any of the <did>-level elements (except the Description of Subordinate Components <dsc>), may be used to wrap elements where a group heading is desirable.

A name or phrase that indicates a secondary or subsidiary administrative level within a repository or other corporate body; a specialized area of subject or other collecting emphasis within a larger unit; or an ancillary collecting area based on the physical form of the materials. This information may be included as plain text within the <repository> and <corpname> elements, or it may be encoded within <repository> and <corpname> as separately tagged <subarea> elements. The latter approach facilitates the filtering of finding aids by administrative division, department, or specialty. For <corpname>s other than <repository>, the <subarea> might help refine searches of large corporate entities, such as government agencies, which share common words, e.g., United States.

A term that identifies a topic associated with or covered by the described materials. Personal, corporate, and geographic names behaving as subjects are tagged as <persname>, <corpname>, and <geogname>, respectively. The role attribute can be set to "subject" when it is necessary to specify the relationship of the name to the materials being described.

All subjects mentioned in a finding aid do not have to be tagged. One option is to tag those subjects for which access other than basic, undifferentiated keyword retrieval is desired. Use of controlled vocabulary forms is recommended to facilitate access to the subjects within and across finding aid systems. The <subject> element may be used in text elements such as <p>. To indicate a subject with major representation in the materials being described, nest <subject> within the <controlaccess> element.

Use the source attribute to specify the vocabulary from which the term has been taken. The normal attribute can be used to provide the authority form of a term that has been encoded with <subject> in narrative text, e.g., within a paragraph. The rules attribute can be used to specify the descriptive rules followed when formulating the term. The authfilenumber attribute can be used to identify a link to an authority file record that has more information about the subject or cross references for alternative forms of a subject term.

The <subject> element is comparable to MARC fields 650 and 69x.

A secondary or subsidiary name of an encoded finding aid that is subordinate to the main name encoded in <titleproper>. The <subtitle> element is available only within <titlepage> and <titlestmt> to capture bibliographic aspects of the finding aid. Subtitles of monographs, serials, paintings, and other such works mentioned in the finding aid are not separately encoded, but they may be listed as part of the <title> element.

A wrapper element for formatting information in a row and column display.

The application of the <table> element is based on the XML Exchange Table Model, an XML expression of the Exchange subset of the full CALS table model DTD. This model is promulgated by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) to promote interoperability among vendor products.

A formatting element that bundles <table> subelements: <colspec>, <thead>, and <tbody>. Tables are comprised of one or more <tgroup>s, depending on the number of times the column specifications change. The <tgroup> element provides a subgrouping of rows within a table that all use the same column specifications. The required cols attribute specifies the number of columns in the table.

By convention, any rule specified in colsep is printed or displayed to the right of the column. External rules are specified with the frame attribute of <table>; horizontal rules are specified with the <table> or <tgroup> rowsep attribute.

By convention, any rule specified in rowsep prints or displays below the row. Vertical rules are specified by a colsep attribute; external rules are specified by the frame attribute of the <table> element.

The formal name of a work, such as a monograph, serial, or painting, listed in a finding aid. Subtitles of such works are not separately encoded but may instead be listed as part of the <title> element.

Do not confuse with <titleproper>, which is used for the title of the encoded finding aid. Also do not confuse with <unittitle>, which is used to encode the name of the described materials, such as the title of a collection, record group, fonds, series, file, or item. Do not confuse with the title attribute which is found in several linking elements. The <title> element may be used inside of <unittitle>, and it is possible that a <unittitle> may contain no text other than that which is further specified by the <title> element. (See example below.)

The rules attribute can be used to specify the descriptive rules followed when forming the title, such as AACR2R. The entityref or href attributes may be used to name either the entity or pointer when linking to a machine-readable version of the cited <title>. The render attribute permits specification of how the content of a particular <title> element should be displayed or printed, e.g., bold, italics, quoted, etc.

The <title> element is comparable to MARC fields 130, 240, 245, 630, 730, and 740.

The name of the finding aid or finding aid series. The <titleproper> element is required within the <titlestmt> subelement of <filedesc>, part of the <eadheader>. It may also be optionally used in the <titlepage> subelement of <frontmatter>. To encode the name of a finding aid series, <titleproper> may be used in the optional <seriesstmt> subelement of <filedesc>.

A required wrapper element within the <filedesc> portion of <eadheader> that groups information about the name of an encoded finding aid and those responsible for its intellectual content. Like much of the <eadheader>, the <titlestmt> element is modeled on an element found in the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) DTD, and its subelements must adhere to the following prescribed sequence: a required <titleproper>, followed by an optional <subtitle>, optional <author>, and optional <sponsor>.

The <titlestmt> relates to the finding aid and should not be confused with Title <title>, used to encode the formal names of works such as monographs, serials, paintings, etc., listed in the finding aid. Also do not confuse with Title of the Unit <unittitle>, used to encode the name of the described materials.

Hodson; machine-readable finding aid created by Xiuzhi Zhou</author> </titlestmt> . . . </filedesc> unitdate Date of the Unit

The creation year, month, or day of the described materials. The <unitdate> may be in the form of text or numbers, and may consist of a single date or range of dates. As an important subelement of the Descriptive Identification <did>, the <unitdate> is used to tag only the creation and other relevant dates of the materials described in the encoded finding aid. Do not confuse it with the <date> element, which is used to tag all other dates.

A standard numeric form of the date (YYYYMMDD, etc.) can be specified with the normal attribute to facilitate machine comparison of dates for search purposes. The type attribute may be used to indicate whether the <unitdate> represents inclusive dates or bulk (predominant) dates. The certainty attribute may be applied to indicate if the date has been supplied or estimated by the archivist. The datechar attribute can be used to supply a term characterizing the nature of the dates, such as creation or accumulation. The calendar attribute, which has a default value of "gregorian," specifies the calendar from which the date stems. The value "ce" (common or Christian era) is the default for the era attribute.

The <unitdate> may be nested within the <unittitle> or used independently of that element.

This element is comparable to ISAD(G) element 3.1.3, and MARC fields 245 subfield f for inclusive dates, 245 subfield g for bulk dates, or 260 subfield c.

Any alpha-numeric text string that serves as a unique reference point or control number for the described material, such as a lot number, an accession number, a classification number, or an entry number in a bibliography or catalog. An important subelement of the Descriptive Identification <did>, the <unitid> is primarily a logical designation, which sometimes secondarily provides location information, as in the case of a classification number. Use other <did> subelements, such as <physloc> and <container>, to designate specifically the physical location of the described materials.

Do not confuse <unitid>, which relates to the archival materials, with <eadid>, which is used to designate a unique identification string for the finding aid.

Although not required, the countrycode and repositorycode attributes should be used in <unitid> at the <archdesc><did> level to comply with ISAD(G) element 3.1.1. repositorycode specifies the ISO 15511 code for the institution that has custody of the materials described, while countrycode provides the ISO 3166-1 code for the country in which that institution is located. identifier should contain a machine-readable unique identifier, containing a value similar to the text in the <unitid> element. The type attribute may be used to indicate the system from which the <unitid> was derived, e.g., accessioning system, record group classification scheme, records retention scheduling system, etc.

The name, either formal or supplied, of the described materials. May consist of a word, phrase, character, or group of characters. As an important subelement of the Descriptive Identification <did>, the <unittitle> encodes the name of the described materials at both the highest unit or <archdesc> level (e.g., collection, record group, or fonds) and at all the subordinate Component <c> levels (e.g., subseries, files, items, or other intervening stages within a hierarchical description).

Do not confuse <unittitle> with Title <title>, a more general element used to encode the formal names of works such as monographs, serials, paintings, etc. Also do not confuse with Title Proper of the Finding Aid <titleproper>, used to designate the name of a finding aid, or a finding aid series encoded in EAD.

The <unittitle> element is comparable to ISAD(G) element 3.1.2 and MARC field 245.

Information about conditions that affect use of the described materials after access has been granted. May indicate limitations, regulations, or special procedures imposed by a repository, donor, legal statute, or other agency regarding reproduction, publication, or quotation of the described materials. May also indicate the absence of restrictions, such as when copyright or literary rights have been dedicated to the public. Do not confuse with Conditions Governing Access <accessrestrict>, which designates information about conditions affecting the availability of the described materials. Preferred Citation <prefercite> may be used in conjunction with <userestrict> to encode statements specifying how the described materials should be referenced when reproduced, published, or quoted by patrons.

In EAD Version 1.0 <userestrict> was a subelement of Administrative Information <admininfo>, which has been deprecated in EAD 2002 (see Appendix B). The new Description Group <descgrp> element, which can group any of the <did>-level elements (except the Description of Subordinate Components <dsc>), may be used to wrap elements where a group heading is desirable. The <descgrp> element can be used to replace <admininfo> where it has been used as a wrapper when converting finding aids encoded in EAD V1.0 to EAD 2002.

The <userestrict> element is comparable to ISAD(G) data element 3.4.2 and MARC field 540.

This appendix includes three "crosswalks" intended to enable comparison of EAD elements with the data elements defined in two related metadata standards or frameworks: ISAD(G)1 and MARC21. Use of these crosswalks may facilitate mapping of data between and among these metadata tools, such as for exporting data from EAD finding aids to create MARC21 records. Further information about the relationship between EAD and these other standards is contained in various sections of the EAD Application Guidelines.

The three crosswalks are these: A.1. ISAD(G) to EAD A.2. EAD to ISAD(G) A.3. MARC21 to EAD

A conservative approach was taken in compiling these crosswalks. In other words, only clear equivalencies between data elements were included. Other roughly compatible elements that may be identifiable by users were omitted because the match was felt to be ambiguous or uncertain.

Listing of two EAD elements side by side in the following tables indicates that the second element is a subelement of the first. For example, " controlaccess persname " indicates that the persname element should be nested within controlaccess .

Listing of different EAD elements on separate lines within a table cell indicates that all of the listed elements can be mapped to the matching data element from the corresponding metadata tool.

MARC21 to EAD

Table A.3 does not include all possible MARC21 fields to which EAD elements might be mapped to generate a partial MARC21 record for the collection; it instead focuses on the most significant and useful fields. In addition, MARC21 fields that contain coded data, such as Leader and Directory fields, are not included, because it is unlikely that such information would be provided in a finding aid in a format that could be directly ported into a MARC21 record (or vice versa).

Note that this mapping is between an EAD finding aid and a MARC21 record describing that same collection, not to a MARC21 record describing the finding aid per se. The table only includes MARC21 fields for which there is a direct, logical analog to an EAD element.

The right-hand column listing EAD elements specifies the use of a subelement within another element in some situations. In other cases, this column provides a list of optional elements, leaving it to the archivist to determine which one best fits the data being encoded.

It is most useful to map to MARC21 the EAD data that is encoded in the high-level did or in other did -level elements such as bioghist , scopecontent , and controlaccess to their field equivalencies in MARC21 records. Since most repositories create MARC21 records only at the "collection level," mapping from more detailed components of EAD finding aids, while theoretically feasible, is less likely to be useful in practical terms.

Note that EAD data being mapped to MARC21 fields that require authority-controlled data must be in controlled access form in order to be imported into a valid MARC21 record.

The EAD Working Group, in response to submissions for changes to the DTD in 2001, is recommending that certain elements no longer be used by encoders. Deprecation means that an element or attribute is not included in the distributed "default" version of the DTD. While it is possible to "switch on" these elements, encoders use them at their own risk, as deprecated elements and attributes will be made obsolete in the next version. While the Working Group will supply transformation scripts mapping deprecated elements and attributes from version 1.0 to version 2002, it will not supply scripts that map deprecated version 1.0 elements to the version that supercedes EAD2002. Deprecated elements can be switched on by making the following change to the DTD:

]]>

Following is a list of deprecated elements and attributes, which is in turn followed by their descriptions from the EAD Tag Library Version 1.0. Adjunct Descriptive Data add and Administrative Information admininfo were wrappers for a number of subelements that in EAD 2002 have been "unbundled" and made available at the same level as did and scopecontent . The rationale for this is that these wrapper elements simply represented tagging overhead, particularly when used at the component level. If element grouping is desirable in some instances, the new element Description Group descgrp may be used. The distinction between organization and arrangement was never very clear to archivists, so the two meanings have been combined in arrangement and brought in line with ISAD(G) element 3.3.4 System of Arrangement.

Tabular display elements Display Row drow , Display Entry dentry , and Table Specification tspec (which also had to be switched on in Version 1.0) are deprecated in favor of using style sheets to control the display of container and folder lists. However, if the use of these elements is desired, the following change must be made in the DTD:

]]>

The deprecated attributes LANGMATERIAL and LEGALSTATUS have been replaced by langmaterial and legalstatus elements. The absence of LEGALSTATUS made the OTHERLEGALSTATUS attribute unnecessary.

Deprecated Elements add Adjunct Descriptive Data admininfo Administrative Information dentry Display Entry drow Display Row organization Organization tspec Table Specification Deprecated Attributes LANGMATERIAL LEGALSTATUS OTHERLEGALSTATUS What are obsolete elements and attributes?

Inquiries to the archival community indicated that some of the tabular display elements were not being used or their use was being phased out, indicating that the Working Group could eliminate them from the DTD without first deprecating them. Obsolete elements and attributes are not available and cannot be switched on in the DTD.

A number of linking attributes were added to EAD Version 1.0 elements in anticipation of the XLink standard reaching a recommendation phase. XLink has changed substantially since that time and these attributes are no longer part of the specification. Other attributes made obsolete were available only in the tabular elements also made obsolete, or have been replaced by other attributes. In the case of OTHERSOURCE, the elimination of the semi-closed list in the SOURCE attribute has made it unnecessary.

A wrapper element for supplemental information that facilitates use of the materials described in the finding aid. This includes additional access tools, such as indexes, file plans, and other finding aids, as well as descriptions or lists of materials separated from or related to those described in the finding aid. The main role of the <add> element is to distinguish supplemental information from the core description of the materials.

When information in <add> supplements information contained throughout the <archdesc>, the <add> might be used once as the last <archdesc> element near the end of the finding aid. When <add> information refers to a single Component <c>, it might be used at the end of the <c>, e.g., to mention a card index to a single series. Brief statements about other finding aids, separated materials, or bibliographical references that might appear, for example, in a scope and contents note do not usually need to be tagged as <add>.

Includes information about acquisition source and custodial history, availability of microform or digital surrogates, processing method, preferred citation, restrictions on use or reproduction, and other kinds of administrative information.

The <admininfo> element may present text as a series of Paragraphs <p>, or it may feature content-specific elements: <accessrestrict>, <accruals>, <acqinfo>, <altformavail>, <appraisal>, <custodhist>, <prefercite>, <processinfo>, and <userestrict>.

A formatting element that designates a single cell in a complex tabular layout by using the SPANNAME attribute to specify which columns the cell spans. The layout for a printed finding aid is often a multicolumn display with varying column widths. Four table elements work together to preserve the hierarchically indented appearance of printed finding aid container lists and descriptions of series: <tspec>, <thead>, <drow>, and <dentry>. Many online finding aids do not need to preserve these strict layouts and can rely on indented Component <c> elements to distinguish subordinate parts of Components <c> and associate them with the appropriate <container> or <unitid> elements.

The table layout is first specified in the Table Specification <tspec> element, which uses the subelements <colspec> and <spanspec> to spell out the column characteristics. A Table Head <thead> contains the column heads. The Display Row <drow> is part of a Component <c> and groups information that constitutes a row in the table. The Display Entry <dentry> identifies one cell in the tabular display, and is followed by elements that designate the cell's content, for example, <unittitle> or <unitid>.

The tabular display features that may be used within <dsc>, such as Display Entry <dentry>, are not included in the default version of the DTD. To "switch on" these elements, change the value of the parameter entity "%tabular" in the ead.dtd and eadgrp.dtd files from IGNORE to INCLUDE and the value of the parameter entity "%nontabular" from INCLUDE to IGNORE.

Attributes None Deprecated Attributes

LANGMATERIAL The language of the collection materials described in <archdesc>, <c>, and <c01-12>. The value of the LANGMATERIAL attribute should be set using the three-letter codes for the appropriate language from ISO 639-2 (e.g., "eng" for English). If two or more codes are needed, separate them by a space, e.g. <archdesc langmaterial="eng fre ger">

LEGALSTATUS The statutorily-defined status of the materials being described in the encoded finding aid, as, for example, defined by the Public Records Act of 1958 in the United Kingdom. If not "public" or "private," an explanation may be provided in the OTHERLEGALSTATUS attribute. Available only in <archdesc>, <c>, and <c01> through <c12> elements.

Values are: public private otherlegalstatus

OTHERLEGALSTATUS The legal status of the materials being described in the encoded finding aid, other than the "public" or "private" choices from the semi-closed list in the LEGALSTATUS attribute.

Obsolete Elements spanspec Spanned Column Specification

An empty formatting element that names and describes a column that is formed by combining (spanning) several other columns within a <table>. The <spanspec> element provides the formatting for this horizontal span and can be used to create a "cross head," in which a row contains a heading that flows across many columns and acts as a title for the cells below the row.

Three attributes are used together to force horizontal alignment on a specific character, such as a decimal point. The ALIGN attribute must be set to "char" (align="char"). The CHAR attribute should be set to the specific character on which the text will align (for example the decimal point, char="."). The CHAROFF attribute controls the position of the alignment. CHAROFF names the percentage of the current column width that is to the left of the alignment character (for example, charoff="30").

The extent of a horizontal span is determined by naming the first column (NAMEST) and the last column (NAMEEND) in the span.

By convention, any rule specified in COLSEP is printed or displayed to the right of the column. External rules are specified with the FRAME attribute of <table>; horizontal rules are specified with the <spanspec>, <table> or <tgroup> ROWSEP attribute.

By convention, any rule specified in ROWSEP prints or displays below the row. Vertical rules are specified by a COLSEP attribute; external rules are specified by the FRAME attribute of <table>.

Appendix C

The following finding aids were originally encoded in EAD Version 1.0 and modified to conform to EAD 2002. One displays a minimal level of markup, while the other makes extensive use of attributes. Neither should be considered normative, as the archival community continues to experiment with the "optimal" level of markup.

Example 1

Guide to the Mildred Davenport Dance Programs and Dance School Materials

Example 1 describes a collection of personal papers at the collection and file levels, using the "combined" dsc approach to emphasize the hierarchical nature of this archival description. It utilizes the LEVEL attribute throughout in order to record unambiguously how, in several cases, multiple nested components are used to describe a single "file," and to clearly mark for server-side processing the boundaries between "file" and "item" levels of description. Further, it encodes physical housing information using a single container element within each c0x component.

Choices for the minimum set of EAD elements and usage of LABEL attributes and head elements were made using the Online Archive of California Best Practice Guidelines Version 1.0: Encoding New Finding Aids Using Encoded Archival Description (available online at http://www.cdlib.org/libstaff/sharedcoll/oac/). These Guidelines will be updated by a subcommittee of the Online Archive of California Working Group shortly after EAD 2002 documentation is released, and are based, where appropriate, on ISAD(G), APPM, AACR2, and other national and international standards for data content and values.

Biography

Mildred Ellen Davenport was a noted civic official and military officer with an extensive career as a dancer and dance instructor in Boston in the 1930s and 1940s. She was born in Boston on November 12, 1900. She began her dance studies at C.C. Perkins Grade School and Prince School as a teenager, and graduated from Boston Girls' High School in 1918. In the 1920s she studied at the Sargent School for Physical Culture and at Harvard, and opened her first dance school, the Davenport School of Dance. Over the next ten years she studied under Ted Shawn and taught dance in Boston. She was also progressively more involved in road show performances such as Hot Chocolates. From 1930 to 1935 she performed in a number of African-American musical productions on Broadway, including Fast and Furious, Flying Colors, and Black Birds. In 1932 she established her second dance school, the Silver Box Studio, in the South End of Boston. She became the first African American woman to perform with the Arthur Fiedler Pops unit of the Boston Symphony Orchestra at this time.

During World War II, Davenport enlisted in the Army as a captain. She produced musical shows for military bases and later served as a special service officer, library officer, and advisor in the Office of Racial Affairs. In 1950, she served as an executive board member for the N.A.A.C.P. office in Boston. From 1947 to 1968 she worked for the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination, founded in 1944 to enforce fair employment practices. Davenport died in Boston in 1990.

See Detailed Description section for box locations. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF GOVERNOR WILLIS A. GORMAN

Willis Arnold Gorman was born in Kentucky on January 12, 1816. His early career was as a lawyer and state legislator (Democrat) in Indiana. During the Mexican War he raised and commanded an Indiana rifle battalion and an infantry regiment, and subsequently was elected to two terms in the U.S. Congress. President Franklin Pierce appointed him Governor of Minnesota in May 13, 1853, and he served in that office until 1857. He was subsequently a delegate to the state constitutional convention (1857) and was elected to the first state legislature (1858).

At the outset of the Civil War he commanded the First Minnesota Infantry Volunteers (April-October, 1861) until his promotion to brigadier general. Following his discharge from military service in 1864, he practiced law in St. Paul in partnership with Cushman K. Davis. In 1869 he was appointed St. Paul city attorney, and held that office until his death on May 20, 1876.

SCOPE AND CONTENTS OF THE RECORDS

Subject files and correspondence of territorial governor Gorman. A large proportion relate to territorial officers' appointments and commissions. Letters received and sent address the following topics: concerns of federal civilian agencies, military and Indian affairs in general, the 1855 treaty with the Winnebago Indians, land sales, the Minnesota and Northwestern Railroad Company, and other territorial affairs. Also present are a legislative diary (Jan. 27-March 6, 1857), pardon records, petitions regarding local government organization, reports from territorial officers, and requests from other states for return of fugitives.

Gorman's governorship spanned a period of both tangible and speculative growth in the state's infrastructure and economy, with numerous railroads, educational institutions, and corporations being chartered, new counties established, new towns incorporated, and several Indian treaties ratified. The surviving records contain only sketchy information on these developments, and do not appear to contain any significant documentation on an abortive 1857 scheme to remove the state capital from St. Paul to St. Peter.
