Part of the problem? Special Collections had previously existed in “relative seclusion of the top level of the stacks,” located behind “a locked door at the top of stairs which few people ascended.” The new Special Collections space was “an obvious, attractive, and luxurious area” just “a few feet” from the front door. As a result, wrote Mason, “this department has had more, and more widespread, publicity than ever before in its existence.” https://exhibits.lib.ku.edu/files/original/e7922ac0c82ed8acaa8473b9e9a86360.jpg d6bfebd32ef7eb3d4e9d5793996d4504 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
