1. Identifier
- "Record the numeric or alpha-numeric code identifying the institution with archival holdings in accordance with the relevant international and national standards." (ISDIAH 5.1.1)
2. Authorized form of name
- "Record the standardised form of name of the institution with archival holdings, adding appropriate qualifiers (for instance dates, place, etc.), if necessary." (ISDIAH 5.1.2)
- Note that the field label functions as a link taking you to the institution's related authority record.
3. Other names
- This is a multi-value field for registering and displaying other names by which the institution is known.
- Enter the data (see steps 4-6 below); when you click the save button in the button block the name will be registered and will now appear in the list above the data entry fields.
- There is no limit to the number of other names you can add, but as of the current version of ICA-AtoM (v1.0 beta) you can only register them one at a time, i.e. enter the data, click the save button, repeat for each additional name.
- To delete an other name, click the delete icon next to it in the list.
