Finally Finished!

After a long process, I have been able to finish fixing the mistakes on the Catalogs and Bulletins! There is only one volume I was never able to locate and then two volumes were scanned twice, the first missing covers pages and the second one being full. It would be best to just mount the full copies, but if this is or the notes in the spreadsheet are confusing, just send me an email and I will get back to you.

On Wednesday I was able to train our new Digitization assistant, Madison Munro! She will be taking over for me while I am studying abroad in Ireland. 

This has been a great and productive semester. I hope everyone has a lovely holiday season!

12/6/2019 - Madolyn Kelm

Closer and closer!

We have a few troubleshooting things to fix this upcoming week and then we will be finished! Mentioned to Stephanie what problem I was having but hoping to sit down with Sara and deciding what to do. 

Going into finals week strong!

12/5/2019 - Madolyn Kelm

Bulletins on Bulletins!

Continuing to move forward with the Catalogs and bulletins. here are now a handful completely ready to mount and updated in the spreadsheet!

There are some new fun discrepancies and will hopefully be able to consult Sara next week on what the best choice would be. I hope to move forward and past those tomorrow and keep moving forward.

12/04/2019 - Maddy Kelm

So close!

We are getting there in finalizing and triple checking the last of these catalog and bulletin fixes. You can follow the progress of the light green boxes on this spreadsheet:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QMHAdNv3r7YX7zxQVwY7IK-uUi7oaPdFLiBnPGFXyU8/edit?usp=sharing

There is one bright red one in there which I still have not been able to locate. I hope to find it soon and by the end of the semester if it still exists. 

All of the light green boxes have their files moved into appropriate folders in Drobo, but the original spreadsheet has not been updated yet. I plan to finish moving everything over to the folders tomorrow and start updating the spreadsheet.

I plan to come in on Friday as well to finalize the project and organize before the new year!

12/3/2019 - Maddy Kelm

The last of the Catalogs and Bulletins

I was finally able to finish scanning and OCRing all of the Catalogs and Bulletin fixes (with the exception of the bulletin I still cannot find)! All files are currently in my personal share so tomorrow I plan to move over all files to their corresponding locations as well as continue to hunt for the missing bulletin. 

If anyone has any information here are its details:

Willamette University Bulletin - Vo. 54 No. 1 - Box 13 Folder 1- No date given

It is not in Box 13 Folder 1 as that contains later volumes. I will keep hunting and hopefully will be able to find it. 

11/20/2019 - Maddy Kelm

The Penultimate Catalogs and Bulletins

I moved onto scanning the last few of the catalogs and bulletin fixes. Tomorrow will finish up the small scanning and OCRing those bulletins. The next step will be to scan the longer documents on the ATIZ and it looks to be about four bulletins, which fingers crossed will all work out smoothly. 

11/14/2019 and 11/15/2019 - Madolyn Kelm

Catalogs and Bulletings and More!

Making great progress into scanning the Catalogs and Bulletins. I have an interesting color-code going on that looks almost like a rainbow at this point, but things are starting to come together. Many will just need to be given a proper folder in the correct place. Yay! I hope to finish the entirety by Winter Break! 

11/13/2019 - Madolyn Kelm

Wednesday 11/13

I was able to start scanning and OCRing the fixes for the Catalogs and Bulletins. I was able to make it through most of Box 10 the years 1909-1918. One book is quite large and will wait to do all of those books on the ATIZ to streamline this process a bit. I will be taking measurements and adding them to the folders in Drobo as we move along.  

11/06/2019 AND 11/07/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Detective Work

Both days were very interesting. I found my self lost in folders, bulletins, and bound volumes. I was finally able to basically find all bulletins that need to be rescanned. There were a few volumes I could not find and will be on a more intense hunt on Tuesday while starting to scan the pulled volumes. 

Have a lovely weekend, everyone!

11/05/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy Foggy Tuesday!

Today was super great! Finally was able to pull all of the second copy boxes for the Catalogs and Bulletins and started digging into finding the volumes that either needed fixes or just some touch-ups. I got halfway through in finding the wanted to documents and plan to keep digging tomorrow. Once we find all documents I will move to scanning/rescanning and the OCR process. 

10/31/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy Halloween, Everyone!

I can not believe October is already over! We were able to accomplish many things down here in the digitization lab! Today I was able to finish spot-checking the Commencement Programs. There are some that are already mounted and now others that are ready to be mounted online. On the other hand, there are many that just need some quick checks. Here is the link the spreadsheet of all of the ones we need to fix:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TLVxKsfSRLZF7cI49dfEBZ-lOJi3BVbC95Syq4zskRc/edit?usp=sharing

On Tuesday I will be getting in touch with Stephanie on when best to pull the Second Copy Boxes and additional bound volumes. Hopefully, this should let us move forward on the Catalogs and Bulletins.

Have a fun and safe weekend, y'all!

10/30/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Catalogs and Bulletins!

Took the first steps towards the corrections on catalogs and bulletins. With the help of Stephanie pulled bound copies of the bulletins I had thought we needed. There may be some discrepancies in the dates in the original spreadsheet and will have a stronger update tomorrow. 

I was also able to touch base with Selicity on what "Third Copy Box" meant, especially after looking at the bound volumes knowing it may be hard to scan the smaller volumes out of that. With help from Selicity, Stephanie and I were able to locate the "Second Copy Boxes" for all of the bulletins and catalogs which was amazing! The hunt for individual Bulletins and Catalogs should be on a smooth track now!

I was also able to take care of the three photos from the Jack Eyerly Collection, pictures found below!

10/29/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Commencement!

I was able to keep moving forward on the Commencement program quality check. It is so interesting to watch how the class sizes, majors, and the programs themselves change over the years. I even found the commencement program from my parent's graduation! 

Stephanie and I plan on pulling the beginning items for the Catalogs and Bulletins and I will be scanning the Jack Eyerly pictures tomorrow as well!

10/24/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy Thursday!

Today I was able to set a time to work with Stephnie on making the first steps towards grabbing the necessary items from the Catalogs and Bulletins spreadsheet. I was also able to make progress towards checking scans from the commencement programs and there were some more mistakes that seemed to follow a trend, will hopefully touch base with Sara on what should be checked on and what should be fixed. Have a great weekend everyone!

10/23/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Wednesday - Bulletins, Catalogs, and Commencements!

Today Sara and I were able to sit down and discuss the next steps for the Catalogs and Bulletins. We do believe the elusive Third Copy Box is gone completely. Which is a bummer but will discuss with Stephanie to see how best to find those articles. To work best with Archives I may switch around hours or work a bit longer to best work with upstairs. Before that happens I am working on "quality control" of previously scanned Commencement programs. Many of them are scanned great, but the page count from the number of .tifs to the number in the spreadsheet is off. There seems to be a pattern and will hopefully be able to clarify this later. Will continue to tomorrow on Commencement Programs and touching in with Stephanie!

( Stephanie if you are reading this I will send an email getting you up to speed :) )

10/22/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Yay for Tuesdays!

I was still having trouble understanding what parts of the catalogs and bulletins needed to be worked on, so today I spent trying to understand a bit better of each. Here is the link to the compiled spreadsheet of things we need to look for and work on. Stephanie and I are a bit confused as to what "Third Copy Box" for location refers to and was hoping someone might have some information on that. Each is highlighted. Hopefully tomorrow we can fine-tune a bit more things sit back down with Stephanie to talk detailed plans.

Productive Fall!

Sorry for the late blog post everyone, things got a bit hectic - but here is a quick summary:

• We were able to finish up the Packwood Scans and the Jason Scans from that particular set of years. 
• Moved onto two quick scanning projects for Stephanie and some researchers 
• One was a rescan of a Cabinet Card
• The second was photos from Men's Basketball of Buzz Wilfert 
• Next, we are moving onto Catalogs and Bulletins fixups.

This next project may be a bit demanding of archives and will hopefully be able to make some progress next week. I plan to dive deeper into the spreadsheet to find out which books need to be pulled or where we need to look. I was able to go up to archives and have a visual with what we are working with and will work towards fixing things ASAP. 

Final update, I am not feeling 100% today, so will be taking a sick day and continuing this process on Tuesday of next week! Have a lovely weekend everyone!

Pictures!

Happy Tuesday!

Today was an interesting day and a start to a long project. I was able to get a few covers scanned for some Penk Hander sketchbooks from the PNAA project, so Sara has the option to mount it as a book which would look really great! Sara also has me start on fixing some small things from Catalogs and Bulletins from Archives. Stephanie and I were quickly able to touch base and we will meet tomorrow to discuss a few rescan of photos and about how best to tackle withdrawing and hunting for items from these collections which could be quite tricky. I hope to get up and running on this tomorrow. I am working on compiling a Google Docs documents with each part of the "fixes" for the Catalogs and Bulletins just to make life easier, well hopefully easier.

10/10/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Project Done!

Yay! I was able to get all scans and metadata done for the Packwood photos, I have one note within the metadata that should be self-explanatory. Many are quite interesting and here is one of my favorites. Have a great weekend everyone!

10/8/2019 AND 10/9/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy Wednesday!

Sorry for the lack of a blog post yesterday, just a day where I did not stop moving till 11 PM and by that point I completely forgot. But here we are today! So over the past two days, I have worked on a project for Craig on photos of Oregon Politician Packwood. Some of these have been quite interesting, including one of Packwood with Nixon, seen below. 

Bob Miche, Packwood, Bob Dole, Richard Nixon, Howard Baker in the hallway in front of Dole's office 

I made major progress today, both in metadata and in scanning. Will have everything scanned and their metadata done tomorrow, and will hopefully have enough time to double-check all titles and file names as too avoid as many mistakes as possible. Here are a couple of photos.

Nothing too exciting!

Today was able to rescan some of the not so great scans of Jason 1986. Didn't notice when I was scanning using the ATIZ the pages were folding at a slightly deskewed angle, so fixing that the second round led to much better scans! 

Messages from Sara indicate I will be moving on to a project from Craig on Tuesday. Looking forward to seeing what those scans are going to be on! 

Have a great weekend everyone.

10/03/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Just a quick update! 

Will not be in today, but will finish this weeks projects tomorrow instead!

10/02/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Catching Up!

Yay! I was able to re-scan the slide for Sara at the correct DPI, and scan the missing horoscope page which background these were interested pages into Olive Sandgren's Sabbatical "Page a Day" for 1959 to 1960. Here are those horoscopes, and I find these to be quite interesting! (Side note: It turned out I had missed two pages, and in looking at all of the pages I have now the dates match up perfectly from file 6.2-10)

 

I was also able to OCR Jason issues from 1987 and 1988, and plan to do 1986 tomorrow!

10/01/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy October!

Hopefully all .gifs for October will be Halloween themed.

Any who, the ATIZ worked marvelously again and I was able to scan two full issues of Jason. I plan to OCR the last three issues I have scanned tomorrow. Today it seemed to have a harder time transferring files between the files, but we will try again tomorrow. Luckily, I have been able to work with them quite a bit and have seen less damage to each scanned issue! Super exciting!

It has been mentioned that I should insert some of the scanned images from each day. Here are a couple inserts from a publication in the 1987 Jason II, which I found to be quite interesting. You can read the whole article from the images found here :

09/26/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy Almost Friday!

^We are almost there!

Another productive day! The ATIZ decided to work swimmingly well and was able to scan an entire Jason issue! Hope to OCR it on Tuesday! Have a great weekend, all!

Always Learning New Things!

Today, I learned so new things and am moving forward! I was able to use the new trick Sara taught me with OCR and was able to finally finish the OCR processing for the Tillamook Thesis. That finishes the Tillamook Thesis for me and I believe Stephanie mentioned a new project for another researcher. Not sure yet, but plan to check in before Thursday. The fixed scan from yesterday was scanned at the wrong DPI, so I plan to go back and fix that as well. Very productive week so far!

P.S. - Here is the file location for the Tillamook Thesis, in respective OCR and Tifs folders.

Onto The Next One!

Today, I was able to fix the last few hiccups on the Eyerly Jack project and take a trip back to Sandgren Slides to fix the scan of a slide. Next, I refocused on the Tillamook Thesis to try and get these pages OCRed without verification. There was some unresponsiveness from the program, but managed to fight through it. Should be able to finish up that process by the end of the week

9/20/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Sorry For The Late Post!

Things got a bit hectic there for a minute, but I am back. I was able to finish up the Jack Eyerly project with only one hiccup. It looks like one of the scans cut off about two inches on the left. I cut off most an important title so on Tuesday I will redo the scan and update the .pdf for that folder. It has been extremely interesting and hopefully, these scans help towards their research. 

09/18/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Another Rainy Day!

Today I was able to finish the last two folder for the Eyerly project. I know have .tifs for all documents and plan to create .pdfs tomorrow along with finish up the OCR without verification on the History of Tillamook.

09/17/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy Rainy Tuesday, Everyone!

(this is me trying to stay dry as I walk between classes)

Today was a productive day was able to get almost all the way through box ten with just a few scans left. Tomorrow I will be able to finish up box ten and move onto box eleven. It is looking like this project should be wrapped up by the end of the week! 

09/12/19 - Maddy Kelm

Happy Thursday!

Today, I made great progress moving forward in this project for Archives.

Here is the location of the current tifs, and will be creating a .pdf file for each folder as part of the project. 

Location : Z:\Archives-Scans\Eyerly_Jack

 I mentioned to Sara earlier this week there was a change in my class schedule which changed my worked schedule just a bit. The following schedule should be pretty consistent, but I will post if things are changing again.

Tuesday ~ 9 - 12

Wednesday ~ 2-4

Thursday ~ 3-5

This should stay fairly consistent, but who knows who will throw an impromptu meeting my way. This was a very productive week and hope everyone has a great weekend!

09/11/19 - Maddy Kelm

Box 9 Done!

Today, after a minor hiccup in labeling I was able to finish up Box 9 of this series. Tomorrow I will be able to move on to box 10 and keep on moving forward! Side note, many of these documents were quit interesting, including a jog-a-thon donation sign up page a about 10 flyers for trying to stop the Arms Race dated circa 1980s. Interesting subject matters and will continue to look into it. 

09/10/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Feeling Like Fall!** 

This how I woke up this morning to grey skies and possibilities of thunderstorms. No matter, we are trucking our way towards fall and with that comes new beginnings including new projects. Stephanie has me started on a new project for a researcher. A lot of this seems to be old documents kept from years and years ago. I am interested in finding out more through the mix of fliers, correspondence and post cards. Today I worked my way the the majority of the first box, of three. Plan to keep moving forward to the rest of the week!

**I apologize for the late post, I neglected to hit PUBLISH and saw the unpublished post on my browser when I arrived today. Today's post will be up shortly!

9/5/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy almost-Friday, y'all!

Today I was lucky enough to have some extra time to come in and finish up the Helen Keyser projects for  Stephanie. Both books look great and are adorable, so if you are in a fun mood check them out! Next week we move onto a new projects from Stephanie and continue on OCR (without verification). Hope everyone has a great weekend!

9/4/2019 - Madolyn Kelm

Happy Middle of the Week!

Today was a fun day! With all of the back to school photos circling around it was nice to be back in that mindset with today's project! 

Today''s project was an Alphabet Book from Helen Keyser. Each letter has an animal and a fun rhyme! The files are too big for this blog post but here is the file location if you so wish to check some of them out. Highly recommend it! This is super cute and I hope to move to her next sketchbook tomorrow!

File Location :

9/3/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Back on Track!

Hope everyone had a great labor day weekend and I know this "No Monday" is definitely throwing me off, hopefully, everything will be back to normal soon! 

I do want to apologize for the late blog post, but on Tuesday especially I will not have time after work to blog and hopefully will be able to fit it into my work time, if not I promise it will be up by the end of that day. 

On a brighter note, I had the chance to start on the projects from Stephanie and was able to get halfway through the project. I was able to scan all slides of the Japanese Garden in its early days (all pictures were beautiful). Then had the opportunity to scan all correspondence and original sketch work. Hope to move to the second project tomorrow!

8/28/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Happy Wednesday, Everyone!

Today was good and also a bit frustrating. I was able to touch base with Stephanie on two future projects, both looking very promising and more to come on those later!

I moved onto OCRing the thesis on the History of the Tillamook, and the verification process is much more tedious on smudged askew print than regular print. I look forward to diving deeper into it and hopefully I won't look too much like this.

8/27/2019 - Maddy Kelm

Welcome back, Bearcats! 

New school year means new projects! I had a lovely summer working with Jenny and getting things done for our PNAA Project.

Back to filling in little projects here and there today I was able to completely scan a thesis from the shelves of the library on the history of the Tillamook.

Luckily the ATIZ was liking us today and was able to work smoothly through all 604 scans. It did amazing. Tomorrow I plan to OCR the document so we can make better use of this thesis!

Sara had made the comment that one of the more impressive things of this thesis was that it was completely typed out (not from a computer). It was beautiful and in scanning no mistakes seemed to pop out to me. Truly amazing work.

PNAA- 7/19/19

Today I was able to catch up on metadata and finish some needed touch-ups on some older scans. Moved onto Henk Pander's sketches of first responders and they are really beautiful here are the images I have so far and due to the size of these scans there wasn't a way to get the whole edge even on the beast. I placed them down below, hopefully these work if not I will move onto brainstorming more ideas on Monday. (I am missing 2 scans because the file was too large.)

PNAA - 7/16/19

Back to blogging after a pretty crazy week. We have jumped to another collection and I was in the process of scanning newspaper size zines from the Nicholsloy collection. The zines were slightly too large for the scanner and because the Beast was down and not working resorted to splicing images together to form the whole sheet. For a double check to make sure we have the best scan now that the ATIZ is working again we are going to back and rescanning the full sheet rather than having to splice them. It really is interesting to see the difference in the two scanners. 

I also was able to scan a sketchbook from the Claudia Cave collection and christmas party invitations from the Tom Cramer collection. Will be moving forward with the rest of the zine's  this week.

PNAA - 7/8/19

Happy to be back and excited to continue forward on this project. I wrapped up the diary and everything looks okay. Most files are in tip top shape but due to her writing close to the inside edge of the book some edges are hard to distinguish what the beginning letters are. It should be great for now and if there are some that give us major problems we can also take a closer look. Tomorrow we plan on moving forward to the next collection.

PNAA - 6/21/19

Today I was able to process the entire first diary and collect the metadata from it. The next step I am working on and will pick back up when I return in double checking the individual files to check for cut off words for pages that need a quick re-scan or pages that were slightly more tilted and fixing those in Photoshop. It was a very productive first three weeks and I am excited to return July 8th. I hope everyone has a lovely Fourth of July and can't wait to be back!

PNAA - 6/20/19

After Sara had problems with the Beast yesterday Bill worked on it again and it seemed to solve the problem. I was able to scan an entire diary today including the inserted pages. They are only .jpg files right now and I will process them into .tifs tomorrow and process them.

PNAA - 6/18/19

All of the slides of this first round have been scanned!!!! Feels super great to have all of these easily accessible, all 1,319 slides! That's a whole lot of memories. Another favorite one of this collection is a photograph of "Land's End in England"

Hopefully will get this visit this place one day!

Also, I finally figured out what the name of that farm in Sweden was!

These were some of the magnified pictures I tried to take and took me several different spellings into google. I knew I was looking for a farm near Lake Viren based on the other slides and their titles. Finally this afternoon I gave it one that shot and the spelling of Blötvik finally sparked something in the search engine and google maps took to a location on the coast of Lake Viren located in Smaland, Sweden! Glad I was able to figure that one out. 

There are not too many, but some slides Olive's cursive was still a little squished for me and was not able to make out a few of the name or titles on some of the slides. But, maybe giving it a rest for a while and coming back with a fresh eye may help.

PNAA - 6/17/19

Today was able to make headway on the metadata on the last box of slides, only four pages left! Those will be finished tomorrow and I can get started on diaries! Super excited :)

Also update, I will be out of the office on Wednesday.

PNAA - 6/13/19

YAY! The last of these slides in the boxes have been scanned, now on to finish metadata and double check some of the words I was unsure about. Super excited to continue working on these.

Mary and Jenny dropped off new storage boxes for the next set of slides. Big boxes with smaller boxes inside of them and then the possibility to add even smaller boxes inside of those. It was crazy.

PNAA - 6/12/19

Today I was able to figure out a few of the stubborn Olive's words that have come my way. Haven't been to get a close look at these pictures because a lot of these have been labeled by Olive or Nelson. I am excited to continue working with these slides and diaries.

I am almost done with scanning the third box of slides and these seem to be a little bit more askew despite being latest in his career. I hope to finish scanning tomorrow and continue to move forward with processing.

PNAA - 6/11/19

Today was able to finish scanning box 11, but still deep in the Metadata of it all. There is lots of funky words, especially on their journey through Sweden, lots of interesting words. Pouring over her cursive has made me rethink my handwriting, as many times I can barely read my own. I plan to finish a rough metadata on this tomorrow and move on the scanning box 13. Once these three boxes have been scanned and given a rough metadata, I hope to either move on to the diaries or going back through and making sure everything is consistent throughout these first 3 boxes.

PNAA - 6/10/19

Today moved forward with the second box of slides. Got partway through processing and then got stuck on the one word. I will try and upload a picture of the word later. It starts with a B and I am convinced it is spelled Blotuik, but I have stronger feelings it is wrong. This is the name of a farm the family visited on occasion and am wondering if any one has any idea which farm this might be.

Other than that decoding Olive's cursive has been like solving little puzzle's throughout the day as I build up the metadata on these slides. It's been really interesting following this journey they went on excited to continue.

PNAA - 6/7/19

Today worked with the beast and was able to get up to 100 pages scanned. Worked on transferring these to .tifs. On Monday Bill plans to exchange out the computer back to the old one to try and isolate the problem. Hopefully everything runs smoothly. I was also able to move forward with the slides and I am halfway through the second sabbatical. Sadly, I have not gone through and finished processing so I have not been able to dive into the pictures yet, but look forward to it. Will be back on Monday to continue working :)

PNAA - 6/5/19

Today worked with the beast again and was capturing just fine. I seemed to have made the program mad and decided to stop while I was ahead and save the work but move on to slides. Was able to complete trays 2 and 3 from box 10 and hope to finish processing and scanning box 10 tomorrow. Very excited to continue moving forward.

PNAA - 6/4/19

Able to keep trucking along on the slides for the first Box and updating all metadata.

As I continue to move this box the more I fall in love with these pictures. This is probably my favorite so far:

Nelson and Olive had this labeled as Santillana del Mar in Northern Spain. I think this is a beautiful depiction of casual chaos among these streets, complete with bull (I think could be a cow), dogs, school children, and chicken! Also you can see what looks to be Olive, Erik, and Jan.

I have made it my new screen saver and can't wait to keep looking through these.

On another note, Bill spent awhile trying to figure out the underlying issue with the ATIZ and finally we were able to get it to take several photos in a row with no complications. We hope to keep everything the same and I hope to move forward with the same set up and continue with the diaries tomorrow!

PNAA - 6/3/19

This is the blog for 6/3/19 published a day late:

So happy to be back at school and working on new projects! This PNAA project looks incredibly interesting and talking this morning with Jenny and Mary gaze more insight to what it is. This already peaks my interest as I am studying abroad in Europe and hope to visit some of the places they traveled as well.

Started off setting up the ATIZ for the first diary and was finally able to get everything running. After a couple of shots taken, the same problem reoccurred and wasn't able to continue working on the diaries. Spoke to Bill and Sara, and hope to move forward tomorrow to take a closer look at the scanner.

Caught up with Jenny on moving forward with the slides rather than diaries and updated the spreadsheet accordingly.

5-3-19 Turetsky (last day)

Finished Folder 13 and Box 2 with it. Went smoothly aside from some confusion on signatures (box2folder13ogbook2_0035.tif, box2folder13ogbook2_0064.tif, and box2folder13ogbook2_0069.tif)-- the author fields are marked with question marks where I was unsure.

Mary Sara and Selicity, it's been great working with you all this semester!

5-02-19 Maddy Kelm

This week was a little bit different. On Tuesday, I dedicated the day to trying to learn more about the ATIZ scanner. Through lots of test I noticed when the program exports .tifs it consistently changes the names of the files in the exact same pattern. This did not matter for small documents or larger ones. With this predicament I dove into some online research and no one seemed to have a solution or a similar problem to mine, so I stumbled across the BookDriver Editor Pro. Many online articles said to use this when creating .tif files. I did another test scan but this time sent the .jpegs through the Editor Pro and then created the .tifs and to my surprise it did not change the order! This to me felt like a mission accomplished and this extra was less of a pain then going through and renumbering all of the miss numbered files. Hopefully I will find a solution through the regular BookDrive program soon.

Then Thursday, I wanted to continue moving forward with the Jason Scans. I had recently stared to re-scan the 1984 at the correct DPI so I completed that. Next came to create the .tifs. Hoping to use my new found trick I tried using the Editor Pro on the document. I have not found a way to adjust the starting number of the export function so I went to import the entire journal of .jpegs. Being that their was 116 of them this was no quick task. Finally getting to the export staged as in was converting .tifs the program quit responding and force quit itself on me. Stumped, I notice it created 7 .tif files, so I wanted to see if it was the size that had affected this shut down. In trying a new batch of only 10 .jpegs files (where the day prior I was able to successfully do batches of 20+), the same program not responding event happened again, and it also only produced 7 .tif files before it crashed. Needless to say the next step will be restarting and trying to figure this out once again. Hoping to come in tomorrow to continue to see what I can do.

Entered metadata for almost all of Box 2 Folder 13. Will finish and scan it on Friday.

4-26-19 Turetsky

Scanned and entered metadata for all of Box 2 Folder 12.

Began entering metadata for Box 2 Folder 13--yes, that Arizona superintendent's name really is "Jno B. Brown," no typo.

4-25-19 Maddy Kelm

YAY!!! The Barnes Journal Project is done! Full size and reduced size PDFs have been created. The hiccups with this made me realize that the next project is re-figuring out the ATIZ scanner and more importantly the Bookdrive Program. I spoke to Bill and Mary about the disordering and am still puzzled will be doing test scans on Tuesday.

4-24-19 Turetsky

Entered metadata for almost all of Box 2 Folder 12. On Friday I'll scan it and start on Folder 13.

4-23-19 Maddy Kelm

After dealing with some initial hiccups on the ATIZ, working with Sara we were back on track working on the Barnes project. In the beginning chaos completely missed setting the correct DPI, so had to back track a bit and get the correct scans. The scans are exporting and will be ready to be touched up and put into a .pdf on Thursday.

4-19-19 Turetsky

It took some time to rename all the files, but I got all the scrapbook inserts that I scanned on the Plustek integrated into the larger batch that I scanned on the Atiz, which makes Box 2 Folder 1 finally complete.

Scanned all of Box 2 Folder 11. There are a couple of Silas Moon's letters of recommendation that I'm struggling to make out the signature on: box2folder11moon0024.tif (W.P. Gamflieep?); box2folder11moon0039.tif (M.C. Murphy?); and box2folder11moon0038.tif (no clue). Any ideas? There are currently question marks on each one's page title and author field in the metadata.

Entered metadata for a portion of Box 2 Folder 12.

4-17-19 Turetsky

Bit of a slow day today-- was working on converting the Atiz scanned scrapbook files from .JPG to .TIF, which was slower than anticipated because I had to do a good bit of sorting, renaming, and recovering accidentally deleted files.

Finished just in time so I haven't really had the time to look them over, but as far as I can tell everything is properly converted/cropped/de-skewed. Started a transfer to the Z: drive at 12:00. so it should be uploaded to Box2Folder1 in a few minutes if you want to take a look.

4-12-19 Turetsky

Scanned the whole scrapbook (Box 2 Folder 1) on the Atiz, but had trouble exporting/converting the files to .tiff. I'm stuck with a bunch of .jpg's, and I'm not sure how to convert them. I copied them to a folder on the Z: drive called "JPGs to convert" in LarsenCollection-Spring2019.

Entered metadata for all of Box 2 Folder 11 and made progress on scanning it. I had some confusion on cursive names, but not on any files that I've scanned yet. I'll ask for some corroboration on Wednesday once they're scanned.

4-11-19 Maddy Kelm

After this weeks hiccups with the ATIZ things finally calmed back down and I was able to use it to get the Jason II 1985 at 300 dpi for their tifs. Will continue moving forward with this on Tuesday.

4-10-19 Turetsky

Cleared up some things about the Atiz with Sara and began getting it set up and trying to scan, but was held up by further technical difficulties which Sara is looking into now.

Began working on scanning the loose items in the scrapbook on the Plustek book scanner, noting their location in the scrapbook pages in the description field.

4-5-19 Turetsky

Scanned and entered metadata for Box 2 Folder 9, Box 2 Folder 10. Entered some metadata for Box 2 Folder 11.

Skipped over Larsen's "History of Chemawa" in Folder 10 because it's an exact copy of the "History of Chemawa" that can be found in Box 1 Folder 7.

Also skipped over "Land Purchased by Chemawa Indian School" in Folder 10, because duplicates of this one can be found in Box 1 Folder 7 as well.

When I have a document that is almost certainly written by Charles E. Larsen, but doesn't specify the author (box2folder7history0002 for example), should I just put Charles in the author field, or is there a way I can indicate the likeliness but uncertainty in the metadata?

Found "Ruthyne/Ruthynr" Turney's name typed out on one of the Box 2 Folder 10 documents (box2folder10history0046.tif)--it's just Ruthyn Turney. Adjusted metadata in Box 2 Folder 6 to reflect this discovery.

4-4-2019 Maddy Kelm

This week was a little different. Fixed the 1984 Jason .tifs to 600 dpi, but at that high resolution and doing over a hundred .jpgs, it crashed on me and stopped responding. I was able to go back and convert all of them to .tifs. Then, I was in correspondence with Doreen, to work on some scans for one of her classes. I was certain I had scanned them before and I was right! So had to do some digging and found the file in Archive-Sans, in the folder Hatfield Related Items. I fixed up the scans and they should be ready for Doreen next time I come in. Other than that fairly normal week.

4-3-19 Turetsky

Adjusted the metadata on those short folders (B2F3-B2F7) so it's only in the folder field, not in the document fields themselves as requested.

Scanned all of Box 2 Folder 8, entered metadata for all of Box 2 Folder 9 and got a start on scanning.

3-22-19 Turetsky

I had some confusion with the recipients name on the postcard in Folder 6 (box2folder6photographs0005 & ...0006). My reading is "Ruthynr Turney," but that sounds like a really strange first name. Thoughts? Maybe "Ruthyne"?

Madolyn gave me a very informative introduction to the Atiz, I played around with it for a bit to get the hang of it, but I've got some questions that we should clear up before I proceed with the Folder 1 scrapbook. I'll plan to discuss in detail with Sara on the Wednesday after break; here are some notes just so that I don't forget what I was wondering (feel free to disregard for now): Trouble with EOS Utility software, couldn't communicate with camera. White sheets in between scrapbook pages? Interspersed material that's more appropriate for the OpticBook, bringing it together? Differences in top/bottom alignment between L&R--just a book thickness issue? Text all the way to the centerfold?

The first section of Folder 8, "Indian School," is a record of Chemawa graduating classes from 1885-1949. This section is a page-for-page duplicate of the list of graduating classes found at the end of Box 1 Folder 7, so I omitted it from the scans.

3-20-19 Turetsky

Began with Box 2 Folder 2 because Folder 1 is Larsen's scrapbook and needs to be scanned on the big book scanner, which I'll apparently get introduced to on Friday.

Scanned up to Box 2 Folder 6, many very brief folders. A question on these folders where there's only one document--should I put the date/format/author/recipient-type metadata in the folder field or the item field or both?

To Sara: Could you check the description field on box2folder6photographs0002.tif and see if this looks like the right format for identifying people in a photo? Thanks.

3-19-19 Maddy Kelm

Finished up the Willamette Journal Issue, and then was going to move back to Jason scanning. I realized it was too beautiful of a day not to be outside so switched gears back to the Plaque Hunting, again the majority of what I found today was not on the spreadsheet, and there are a lot I have actually never seen before. I will keep updating as I go along.

3-15-19 Turetsky

Finished Folder 8, and Box 1 with it.

Today Mary told me that after further consideration, I shouldn't try to chronologically rearrange Larsen's original order. Would it be a good idea to leave a note about the order in the folder's description?

"The Chief Chemawa Annual" seems to be some kind of yearly sports report, but each year's report (and even the different pages within a year's report) are all titled slightly differently. What I'm wondering is whether I ought to pick one format with which to title them all in the metadata.

For example: the 1937 'Chief Annual' is three pages and alternately titled, "The Chief Chemawa Annual 1937," "The Chief Annual 1937," and "1937 The Chief Annual." The 1938 one is also three pages: "1938 Annual," "The 1938 Chief Chemawa Annual," and "1938 Chief Annual."

So I could just use the exact name of each page in the metadata like this...
   The Chief Chemawa Annual 1937 - box1folder8athletic0227tif
   The Chief Annual 1937, p. 2          - box1folder8athletic0227.tif
   1937 The Chief Annual, p. 3          - box1folder8athletic0227.tif

But I feel like one name format would be cleaner. Thoughts on this? And if I should use one, which format?

I'm pretty sure that all the "Vol. x No. x" documents are sports articles that Larsen has excerpted from the Chemawa American. Should I label their source format as "newspapers" or "clippings (information artifacts)"?

3-14-19

Today, started a new project from Selicity. It is scanning the Willamette Journal. I was able to scan everything today and they are in the correct location. I hope to readjust a few of the pages that weren't great on Tuesday. Hopefully want to look at this book more, especially the article on the Disappearance of the Waller house? It looked very interesting.

3-13-19 Turetsky

Made progress on Folder 8, might be able to finish scanning on Friday.

Mary let me know that rearranging out of order "Vol. x No. x" files is fine and I should pursue it, which I'll begin after I finish scanning the folder.

Interestingly I found a second "Vol. 17 No. 6"--the first is "Vol. 17 No. 6, March 1915" (box1folder8athletic0106), the second one I just found is "Vol. 17 No. 6, March 1914" (box1folder8athletic0180.tif), both unique and describing separate events. Maybe a typo on Larsen's part?

3-12-19 Maddy Kelm

Today I was able to finish scanning the 1985 Jason edition, with minimal damage! Granted the process is a bit slower but it was good not to see pages falling out! Will get these OCRed and finished up on Thursday and move onto the next volume.

3-8-19 Turetsky

Found two duplicate pages in Folder 8 (Vol. X No. 46, May 8, 1908 and Vol. 11 No. 35, Feb. 19, 1909), omitted both from the scans.

Also found that a number of of the pages are arranged out of order (chronologically at least) but I haven't altered the order, as advised.

Overall made good progress on Folder 8, I'm just about halfway through at this point. Generally pretty uneventful stuff here, but the one article on the "Chemawa Bears" was pretty funny (Vol. IX No. 11, Jun. 1, 1906 - box1folder8athletic0075.tif).

3-7-19 Maddy Kelm

Normally I would be in the office today,  but am out for family reasons. So yesterday I came in and was able to fix the 1984 .tifs, scan most of the 1985 edition of Jason and get those scans OCRed. Next week, hopefully I will be given more luck in handling the Jason issues.

3-6-19 Turetsky

Mary figured out the cursive name in question--"Umatata"--updated metadata with the correct name.

Made a dent in Folder 8 but there are still quite a lot of athletic records to go.

3-5-19 Maddy Kelm

Had to work backwards today, to go back to the 1984 Jason and get Tifs for them. I was able to get all of them, and then download. Through all of these transfers the page numbers got all mixed up. We know have the tifs, but in the complete wrong order, and currently working on trying to fix it. Hopefully we will be back to where we were on Thursday. 

3-1-19 Turetsky

Finished Folders 6 & 7, made headway into Folder 8.

Regarding the graduating class documents at the end of 7--is it alright to have two "cont."s in a row? i.e.:
        Graduates - Chemawa Indian School, c/o 1933     -      box1folder7history0088.tif
        Graduates - Chemawa Indian School, c/o 1933 cont. - box1folder7history0089.tif
        Graduates - Chemawa Indian School, c/o 1933 cont. - box1folder7history0090.tif
Or should I come up with something to distinguish the third?

Is "administrative records" appropriate in terms of source format for the athletic records in Folder 8?

2-28-19 Maddy Kelm

Today I am feeling a bit under the weather, so just decided to keep moving forward on Jason project. I have the 1984 publication scanned and OCRed hopefully that's what we are hoping for with this hope to touch base with Sara on Tuesday!

2-27-19 Turetsky

Just about finished with Folder 6, only six pages left to scan.

Mary let me know that I should be re-stapling the documents that I've de-stapled for scanning. Did so with the two issues of Indians at Work in Folder 6, will move on to stapling the smaller bunches of documents on Friday.

2-26-19 Maddy Kelm

Today was a little upsetting went back to work on Jason but the minute I opened the next one up it started to crack. Still tried to take picture but not too much success. So I decided to OCR the older documents. Looking to keep moving forward on this on Thursday.

Turetsky 2-22-19

My cursive illiteracy is coming to haunt me. I couldn't make out most of box1folder5letters0040.tif, a a handwritten note about a husband and wife "William and Mary ______." The last name looks to me like "Winatata" but I'm not very confident. Could someone please take a look and let me know if the title "Note on William and Mary Winatata" is right?

Finished Folder 5 and the better part of Folder 6.

2-21-2019 Maddy Kelm

Today was a good day! Spoke to Mary and Bill about the best way to go about the Jason Scanning. I tried using the Plustek scanner but I felt I was handling the book too much and not getting the greatest scans because if you opened the book too much it began to crack.

Didn't get too far before I realized this way a bad idea. Then moved to The Beast and once everything was focused and set up the rhythm synced in. I got an entire booked scanned and moved. Looking forward to continuing this project.

Turetsky 2-20-19

Today I got about halfway through Folder 5.

Some of the internal Indian Affairs documents threw me for a loop in terms of source format--I didn't want to just label everything "memorandum"... Any suggestions?

2-19-2019 Maddy Kelm

Been a while since I used the book scanner and OCRed, but luckily I jumped right back in. I was able to jump into the Jason scanning project. Looking forward to picking it up on Thursday.

2-14-19 Maddy Kelm

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, EVERYONE!

After many hiccups with the ATIZ scanner I was finally able to come in today with everything set up and finally finish up the Law School Project. Got me to keep hacking away and Photoshop and was super interesting.

One thing that I thought was really interesting was the increase in women and diversity as the years increased, also of course the change in hairstyles. Also on on of the class photos there was a photographed picture of what looked like a chair at the end after everyone else's picture, which I thought was hilarious, but also intriguing.

Next week I plan to keep hacking at the Nichols Plaque projects and maybe get some JASON scanned. Will keep you guys updated :)

2-13-19 Turetsky

Finished scanning Folder 4.

Added "19uu" to DPLA date field for undated materials.
When only there's only a year specified, is simply "1921" correct for both date fields?

Added full names to the titles of multi-page documents as suggested (i.e. "Indian Legends of the Pacific Northwest, p. 2" instead of just "p. 2").

2-12-2019 Maddy Kelm

Today was interesting to say the least. Because of the bad weather stayed in to catch up on other projects. I started scanning the Law School Classes for Selicity, and because of the largeness of the images had to adjust somethings to get them to fit for the ATIZ. Hoping to have those finished by next Thursday at the latest.

Also Sara was able to figure out how to add GPS coordinates into metadata, so I began updating the metadata for many of the pictures, hoping to continue with that project soon.

Turetsky 2-8-19

Today I finished up Folder 2, got through all of Folder 3, and made headway on Folder 4.

~

Where the only date information available is the month and year, I've entered the DPLA date as XX/XXXX (see "Indians are Citizens, Not Wards" box1folder2histdocs0044.tif-0046.tif).

1) Is this correct?

2) Google Sheets does this odd thing where when you only enter month and year, it automatically assumes the 1st of the month (double click the DPLA field on the scan mentioned above and you'll see). Will this be an issue?

The transcribed speech by former Chemawa student William Frazier (box1folder2histdocs0047.tif) doesn't really have a page title--I titled the page "William Frazier at Covelo, CA Indepedence Day celebration," is this suitable?

In Folder 2 I've used "clippings (information artifacts)" in the source format field pretty generously. @Sara, have I used it anywhere that you think it doesn't really apply?

The poem "Chief Joseph" (box1folder2histdocs0049.tif) afforded me a better understanding of the OIA "memo" (box1folder2histdocs0023.tif)--learned that what is referred to as "the Victory Ship, Chief Joseph" was a ship christened in the name of the late Modoc chief, and its full name was "The Spirit of Chief Joseph." Updated the description field of the memo to reflect this info.

Folder 3, "Indian Legends of the Pacific Northwest" is compiled by Charles E. Larsen--should I list him as the author in the metadata?

I couldn't find a date associated with this compilation.

Updated collection titles on every folder from "Larson" to Larsen.

Since everything thus far (with the exception of Folder 4) has been "text" in the "type" field, is it kosher to keep on only entering a "type" for the first row that describes the entire folder, or should I be entering "text" on every line?

How should I go about giving page titles to letters? I've used this format so far:

"John Collier to Members of the Indian Service, Tribal Councils, and other Indian Leadership, and Friends of the Indians' Cause"

"Franklin D. Roosevelt to John Collier"

Is that alright?

Also, how am I doing with the "# of pages" metadata? In Folders 2 and 4 I've given each cluster of related scans a  # -- using "1" if it's a standalone.  With Folders like 1 and 3, where every page has been related, I've left the "# of pages" field blank except for the first row describing the whole folder.

Is this correct?

2-5-19 and 2-7-19 Maddy

Today I am doing a combined post because these fit extremely well together.

So on my treasure hunt I have been able to secure 16 GPS locations and photographs that go along with the Nichols spreadsheet.

In the MOH folder I have for this I also have a folder of "Not in Spreadsheet", of plaques I found along my travels and photographed mistakenly thinking they were all of the spreadsheet. Not sure what we want to do with them, but it could be interesting.

Most of the rest I plan to photograph on my way around campus, because the majority that are left are trees, or things I need to rephotograph because my original picture was not taken well.

Hopefully will continue with this project when it gets to be much warmer and less snowier outside.

Next week will move to Selicity's Project for the Law school.

2-6-19 Turetsky

Added a note on the spelling of Comcomly/Comcumly in the description of the "Chief Comcumly's Followers" document as suggested.

After looking at Sara's alterations to the metadata I definitely have a better understanding of how to use the source format and subject fields.

Today I've made my way through more than half of folder 2, and I expect to be moving on to 3 pretty quickly on Friday.

1-31-19 Maddy Kelm

Late blog, the first one decided to not publish :(.

But today was an interesting day. I decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and went out to start photographing some monuments and plaques for the Nichols' Project. Was able to find most on the east side of campus. Later in the day uploaded the jpegs into the folder and tried to mess around with photoshop to see how I could fix up some of my camera mistakes. Most have been edited, but not all the photos. I am excited to get these photos documented.

Also spoke to Galin and she mentioned many plaques, over on the Law Libraries campus, that were not on the list. I wondered if in the future there could possibly be a cool project in the future.

2-1-19 Turetsky

I unfortunately slept through my alarm and first class this morning... So today I worked from 12:00pm-4:00pm, not 10:30am-12:00pm & 1:00pm-4:00pm.

I got through all of Folder 1 and made a dent in Folder 2: through the "Souvenir of the 83rd Anniversary of the Organization of the First American Civil Government West of the Rocky Mountains."

Recipe folder:
The titles of some of the recipes have some unique spellings (e.g., "pine apple," "tapicoa," "Tapico" (listed as an ingredient--and capitalized--perhaps a brand of "tapicoa"?)

Also, some of the recipes contained on a individual page had little in common, so I had to make some page titles in the metadata somewhat long to accurately capture the contents of these pages.

There were 13 pages of exact duplicates, while some (the pudding and pickle recipes) had two different pages with some recipes in common, but also featured new ones; I titled these "Pickle/Pudding recipes, contd."

Day one copying originals 1855-1953 [Native American history documents] folder:
I was unsure in which metadata field to put the "1855-1953" bit--should I include it in the folder title? The description? Or only in the date field?

Another question for Sara: I don't know how exactly I should be using the source format field. Is this supposed to be a label that cohesively describes the entire folder (like "recipes" for Folder 1), or a unique format description for each document? The documents in Folder 2 seem harder to pin down under one particular format like "recipes".

The "Treaty with Dwamish, Suquamish, etc." document says it was signed 01/22/1855; proclaimed 04/11/1859; ratified 03/08/1859... Which should I enter in the metadata?

I'm sure this folder is rife with unique spellings, but one that stood out immediately was "Chief Comcumly." We've actually been reading about him in my Race/Eth. in the American West class, and modern scholars spell it Comcomly.
          - Hmm... He's actually referred to as "Com-com-ly" at later points in the document.

I turned up the contrast on some of these to improve readability, beginning with "Chief Comcumly's Followers".

This "Souvenir of the 83rd Anniversary of the Organization of the First American Civil Government West of the Rocky Mountains" booklet (box1folder2histdocs0015 to box1folder2histdocs0022) also has a very long title, but I can't really think of how else to title it.
         - I've entered what I thought would be appropriate in the description field for each page--should I also come up with subject, type, or source format for these?
         - @Sara, please let me know your thoughts on Wednesday regarding this^ / whether the rest of today's metadata looks okay.

1-30-19 Turetsky

Mary and Sarah introduced me to entering metadata and using the scanner. I managed to successfully scan 4 pages of the recipes folder. After that, an issue arose with the color scan settings--regardless of how Sarah and I tweaked the "mode settings" the scanned image came out with a strange pale blue tint. (The grayscale setting worked fine when we tried it, but grayscale isn't what we wanted here.) Sarah says she'll look into it.

1-29-19

Today I returned the football programs folders 5-8 to the archives. I messed around with the ATIZ again and figured out how to change around the arms. Next, I talked with Sara about my next project, talked about JASON and the Nichols Memorial Project. For the Jason hoping to move forward with that on rainy days and for the Nichols project I figured out how to find the coordinates on an image and get the precise location of where each plaque is, I updated the spreadsheet and created a visual map where I can check things off as I move around campus throughout the next week or two. Hopefully will be able to update each with a picture and a GPS location. Excited to be back on Thursday to keep moving forward. 

1-24-2019

Today I did the last of the OCR on all of the football programs and hoping on Tuesday to work on the next step of this project. Thank you guys for a great first week of the semester!

1-22-19 First Day Back

Today, luckily, Sara was able to catch a couple mistakes on Dave Craig's Slides and I was able to correct them. Good learning experience and glad to do it. Got some OCR done on the football programs and hopefully will be able to finish OCR for them on Thursday.

1-18-2019 Ready for the Semester and Updates!

So today I got to OCR folders 5 and 6 and moved onto 7! Not too exciting but still.

Also I filled Sara in on my hours I will consistently be here in the next coming weeks and it looked like Tuesday from 10 till 12 and Thursday 2:30 to 5, so these hours are a little rigid, but I have attached an image of my google calendar.It is a little packed, but there are some extra times to fit in a small project if it is urgent I won't be in before it needs to be completed. Just send me a quick email and if I am not in class I should respond promptly. Thank you guys for a great start and I can't wait to see what this semester holds!

1-17-2019

Today finished up scanning all of the football programs, started OCR for all of the scanned ones. Will be a long process but making strong headway.

1-16-2019

Today I was able to work again with ATIZ and it makes more sense, and was able to finish folder 7 and get almost done with 8.  I also started OCR on the rest of the football programs and hopefully will continue with that on Thursday.

1-15-2019

Finished the quick .PDF project from Mary this morning. Scanned the rest of folder six then moved on through folder 7, about halfway through. Will be headed out for the day, but will be back tomorrow at 9! :)

1/11/19

Worked through file 6, got halfway. Also tried to figure out the beast was able to turn it on take a few snapshots and crop them, and focus, just not sure how to change any settings and will look into that on Monday. Thank you guys for a great first week!! :)

1/10/19 The Case is Closed

Mary found the programs! So I started up on those again and finished folder 5, and updated the spreadsheet. Hoping to get to "The Beast" tomorrow for an hour or so.

1/9/19 The Case of the Missing Football Programs

In the morning finished up the Chemawa project, and was able to fix the spreadsheet and finish up Dave's slides. In the afternoon we hunted for the missing football programs and go super close but still no luck.

1/8/19

Finished up Craig's slide in the second box, will catch up the spreadsheet and do a double check tomorrow. On the Chemawa Project everything has been scanned, but have two more documents to touch up, very hard to read them, will also be finishing that up tomorrow.

Great second day, learned lots! Thanks guys!

1/7/19 First Blog

Got through the first hoops and was able to accomplish the first file of the Chemawa Project, and scanned slides 1 through 49 for Craig. Should be able to finish both projects tomorrow.

Great first day. Thank you guys for all the help and I am excited to start this new journey! :)
