Ingestion Checklist

Instructions

The following is a checklist that should be used when ingesting new volumes. If you have been ingesting for some time, you, may be tempted to skip some of these. Don't! I suggest copying this file to one named "checklist.md" and placing it in the ingestion directory. This way, you can verify to posterity that you have gone through these steps.

Steps

  • Verify that the volume titles are reasonable and follow good naming guidelines (e.g., consistency with past volumes).
  • Manually inspect at least 5 PDFs to make sure they are okay. Sometimes submitters will send along the paper submissions, rather than the camera-readies.
  • Post an announcement to the Google Group
