Hi Everyone,

I have a basic question and am hoping you can give me some guidance. 
Where in the media module are you storing the information about the 
source for the digital file i.e. 35mm color slide, 4x5"CT, born 
digital etc?  I was thinking about putting this information into Text 
Entries, but I'm curious about what others are doing.

Thanks for your time!

Sincerely,


Lucille Stiger
