COMMENT
One of the indicators for the LAC Three-year plan 2019-2022 is the number of records enhanced by user contributions in the Co-Lab crowdsourcing tool. The indicator is to be released quarterly as is the indicator number of images digitized via DigiLab.
Lady Macdonald's Diary is no longer listed in the Co-Lab report because posting it on Co-Lab was a mistake and so when this was pointed out it was removed. The work on it was completed[?] two years ago and it is finally available on the website - http://collectionscanada.gc.ca/pam_archives/index.php?fuseaction=genitem.displayEcopies&lang=eng&rec_nbr=122166&title=Family%20papers.%20%20Baroness%20Macdonald%20%5btextual%20record%5d.&ecopy=e008468893-t
ReplyDeleteNo editing seems to have been done by LAC staff and apparently no one even read the comments before putting the work on line, as no attention was paid to the comments about duplicated images, for instance. It makes me feel that the time I spent working on this was totally wasted.
