For physical media objects such as slides or transparencies, we put the physical location in the public caption field, primarily because it then shows on the media tab in the objects module.

That way, you could record a location history for the media object. Just a thought!

Since these are physical media objects the screens "File Info Card" and "Archival Storage" do not appear and "Archival Storage" is where the physical location of the back-up digital image resides. I was going to modify the this screen for the physical images but TMS does not provide them. So, where are people recording the physical locations for this type of media? Thanks for your help and ideas Renee Renee Bomgardner Registrar Barnes Foundation 300 N. Latch's Lane Merion, PA 19066 610-667-0290 ext.1045 [log in to unmask]
