12/10/10 - From JennMedia notification
We are about to start the scanning and I was thinking about the disclaimers that we plan on including if the thesis also included additional media like CD, DVD, Video. I would like to standardize the text we use so it is consistent. I also thought about how we should say "where the item is". The disclaimer will be in the PDF copy of the thesis forever so if there is even the slightest chance that the additional items will not be permanently held by the divisional library in the future, I think we should at the very least say something like this: The accompanying media to this thesis is available at the Rotch Library or the Institute Archives.
Ann Marie suggests: The accompanying media item for this thesis is available in the MIT Libraries or Institute Archives.
12/3/10 - 5 boxes to Doc Svcs
12/2/10 - Info from Nick
I think it will be 18-20 boxes. There are 592 items on the pick list from before 2008, and we are fitting 30-35 items in a box.
12/1/10 - Info Packing & labeling info from Jenn
The way they are in the box doesn't really matter. Having a label on the outside of the box is important as we will use that information internally. You can include the range of names but we would also like to have each box assigned a consecutive number
