Identification of Complex Object Components to Support Citation and Navigation

[BCDigLib]

Create an interface that identifies constituent files, enabling users to either (1) cite a particular physical or logical component or (2) use the labels to navigate to a particular location within the object.

We currently use the label attribute on mets:structMap/mets:div to accomplish identification and navigation. This object is an example of one photo shoot including 23 similar images that need to be individually identifiable/citable by users.

Thanks for the idea, @BCDigLib! Can you include a screenshot showing what you mean?

[BCDigLib]

Sure thing! This is a simple viewer opened to show bh001682. bh001682 is one of 23 similar black-and-white negatives that are part of a photoshoot of a bomb scene. Of course we'd want the viewer to look more modern and visually pleasing than the one in the attached screenshot, but this gives you a general idea. Here is a link to the object: http://dcollections.bc.edu/webclient/DeliveryManager?pid=117624&custom_att_2=direct
