Repositories

Specific encoding for manuscript repositories

All collections of manuscripts (churches, monasteries, archives, libraries, museums, private hands, etc) need a record of INS-type, stored under Institutions. This is the type of record we refer to within the <msIdentifier> as <repository>.

Please check the Place or Repository Guidelines section to decide if you need a repository record.

Note that records for repositories are visualized differently, with a list of hosted manuscripts automatically extracted.

For INS-type records all general guidelines and especially those for places are valid. All repository records should have a @subtype with institution.

Example 1

Note that inside <note>, if you are giving a date the @type with value 'foundation' is required.

<ab> in <note> is used inside <listPlace> for repositories and should always have a @type equal to 'history' or 'description'. @type with value 'appellation' can be used to list a series of ways in which a repository is called which are not necessarily <placeName>s. This is expected to be a simple list of appellations.

Private collections

Repository records are also created for the private collections of individuals owning manuscripts. These have a @type with privateHouse, for example, in INS0368atohayle:


               <place subtype="institution" type="privateHouse">
                  <placeName xml:id="n1" xml:lang="en">Private Collection of Ato Hayle Bayyana</placeName>
                  <settlement ref="LOC3577Gondar"></settlement>
                  <location>
                     <geo>12.609389 37.468671</geo>
                  </location>
               </place>
