Title

Title

searchable=yes

hidden=no

required

 

A brief descriptive phrase.  The title is a concise phrase that will appear as the label of the thumbnails.

Note:  A good approach would be to use a concise description of the site, carpet or process plus the name of the town/village.

Examples:
TITLE: Setting up a loom in Sivas
TITLE: Mosque in Bursa
TITLE: Kilim carpet from…

Location

Coverage

searchable=yes

hidden=no

ControlledVocab = Yes

 

LCNAF and LCSH

 

Name of place where the object is located or from which it originated. Enter city, country, and any other relevant geographic location headings.

City and country names should be taken from LCNAF; other geographic names (roads, valleys, passes, rivers, etc.) should be taken from LCSH as available.

Places not found in LCNAF or LCSH should be established according to NACO or SACO procedures. The proposed heading can then be entered. If it is not possible to establish a heading (for example, for an unnamed dirt road), a descriptive phrase should be entered in "Location (uncontrolled)."

If an established name of a geographic feature, such as a road, would not indicate the locale of the feature to the average person, add a descriptive phrase in "Location (uncontrolled)."

Multiple entries should be separated with a semicolon.

Examples:
Istanbul (Turkey)
Kadikoy (Istanbul, Turkey)
Il yolu K.K. no. 70-50 (Turkey)

Location (uncontrolled)

Object/Building Name

Subject

searchable=yes

hidden=no

LCAF

The proper name given to the specific object or building represented in the image in authorized form when available.  The intent is to provide a consistent, uniform name as a search point, as opposed to the TITLE field, which is an uncontrolled, descriptive phrase.  (Note:  TITLE will often be a common English language phrase; OBJECT/BUILDING NAME will often be the official, vernacular name in the language of the country where the object is located.)

Examples:
TITLE: Blue Mosque
OBJECT/BUILDING NAME :  Sultanahmet    Camii (Istanbul, Turkey)

Historical Period or Date of Construction

Date

searchable=no

hidden=no

 

The period of which an object, structure or site is most commonly considered representative.  For rugs, the decade is best.  For structures and sites, the century is usually the closest realistic dating.

Examples: 
1950-1959
17th century

Reflects the Date field. If the date is a single year, it is the same in both the Date and the Dates fields. If the date in the Date field is a "circa" date (e.g. ca. 1895), the Dates field contains the expanded version so that searching will find dates covered by the concept of a "circa" date. Five years on either side of the "ca." date is the preferred form.

Example
If the Date field reads "ca. 1910,": Dates: 1905, 1906, 1907, 1908, 1909, 1910, 1911, 1912, 1913, 1914, 1915

Examples
If the Date field reads "1940," Earliest Date: 1940
