View screen (user not logged in)


1. When you navigate to a record from a List screen, ICA-AtoM displays it in full on the View screen. The screen title shows you what type of entity you are viewing: archival description, authority file, archival institution, or term.


2. The View screen shows any fields that contain data for the current record; empty fields are not displayed. Note that long descriptions may extend beyond your browser window; use scroll arrows to access.


3. The Context menu box provides links to related records. In the case of an archival description (illustrated), these include links to the archival institution that holds the material, the creator's authority record, and other archival units in the hierarchy of arrangement. Levels in the hierarchy can be expanded or collapsed to view or hide sub-levels. The current record is always highlighted. Click any of the blue links to navigate to another record.


4. To edit the record you must be logged in as a user with at least contributor privileges (see section 1 above for logging in).


5. Once you are logged in, you can switch to the Edit screen by clicking the Title bar or the Edit button (not illustrated).


6. The Edit screen (not illustrated) provides access to all fields, organized into information areas which can be expanded (show fields) or collapsed (hide fields). See section 4 below for data entry.
