Chemawa Prints Project Day 27

Today is my last day. I am wrapping up a few loose ends: measuring dimensions for a few last prints, editing titles from when I first started adding metadata, de-skewing scans, meeting with Sara, writing this last post, and checking in with Payroll.

This is the link to the Project Ideas page where I have listed possible future projects for the Charles Holmes Collection:

In the document I have listed tasks for future Digitization Assistants who will be working with the metadata or scans, and for the future students of Professor Dobkins' Museum Studies Seminar who will be working with the prints themselves.

There are three unlabeled large boxes in the stacks with items from Chemawa. I inspected the first box and found many empty envelopes, film, and prints that looked like those from the Charles Holmes Collection. The items are in sleeves. A mystery to be dealt with in the future...

I have de-skewed and adjusted the borders for CH 3020-3226. I came across a few scans that I must have skipped over when I was originally editing them because I had not edited them at all. I do not know how many of these are scattered throughout.

All the best,
Alexis Gjurasic
