[Archon-L] pdfs

[Amy Schindler]

We inserted the link for collections that only have a single inventory
in Other Information as well:
http://scrc.swem.wm.edu/index.php?p=collections/controlcard&id=6743. A
number of our collections have multiple, distinct box lists (like for
the records of the Office of the President that are arranged simply by
accession: http://scrc.swem.wm.edu/index.php?p=collections/controlcard&id=7404)
or the finding aids were rather long
(http://scrc.swem.wm.edu/index.php?p=collections/controlcard&id=7098).
In those cases, we simply inserted the link to the PDFs in the
description field using the <a href> tag.
