Master Encoding Guide: Printed

Record Content: Printed

Many records will have a line or several lines of text following the word “Printed.” All of this text was coded by the vendor with the <pr> tag. If there was a logical paragraph break between one printed citation and another, each citation was tagged separately. There is no limit to the number of <pr> tags in a record. In the full schema, the <pr> tag will be parsed to allow for tracking of bibliographic information, including titles and authors. This level of encoding is reserved for Level 2.

Example:
<printed>Printed: <ref target="AFC2" href="linktoAbigail">AFC vol. 2</ref>:345</printed>

<printed>Printed: <ref target="BcolCent">Boston Columbian Centinel</ref>, 18 August 1785</printed>

The @target and the @href will link to a separate database of the Adams Papers short titles and to the bibliographic record in ABIGAIL, the MHS online catalog. The section of the full schema may also change as we learn more about the capabilities of the full database.
