Text Class Overview

Examples of Text Class Implementations and Practices

Making of America, Twentieth Century American Poetry.

The decision process for inclusion of content in the Text Class is roughly based on the following:

• The text is a monograph or journal issue available in SGML or XML.
• Each text has a unique ID.
• The campus and/or world community would benefit from access to the information.

These are, at best, general guidelines for decision making based on the current state of the Text Class implementation at the University of Michigan.

Customizing Text Class

This could provide other topics, but I think it would be a good place for a discussion of the pieces of text class that are customizable ranked by level of difficulty. Then you could link to the places in the doc that discuss specific methods for customizing different bits.
