- | ==Overview==
| + | |
- | The Finding Aids Class is in many ways similar in behavior to Text Class. Access minimally includes full text searching across collections or within a particular collection of Finding Aids, viewing Finding Aids in a variety of display formats, and creation of personal collections ("bookbag") of Finding Aids.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | To mount a Finding Aids Collection, you will need to complete the following steps:
| + | |

- | # [[Preparing_Data and Directories|Prepare your data and set up a directory structure]]
| + | |
- | # [[Finding_Aids_Data_Preparation#Validating_and_Normalizing_Your_Data| Validate and normalize your data]]

- | ==Working with the User Interface==
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | General user interface customizations, such as changing rendering style (CSS) or making changes to the XSL are covered in [[Customizing the User Interface]]. Specific user-interface issues related to Findaid Class are discussed in the following sections:
| + | |
- | * [[Customizing Findaid Class]]
| + | |
- | ** [[Customizing Findaid Class#Working_with_the_table_of_contents |Working with the table of contents]]

- | ===[[Findaid Class Graphics Files]]===
| + | |
- | Are there findaid class specific graphics files? The existing html docs actually point to a ../t/text/ directory and it appears that the graphics are generic and not at all specific to findaid class.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | ===[[Findaid Class Processing Instructions]]===
| + | |
- | These are some current processing instructions for Finding Aids Class, but the DLXS group will not maintain this section.
