-----SET 1------- 1 and 2. Yes, in general. I think the easiest way to deal with pages like these is to make them part of the front matter for the volume in question, like this (there are many valid ways to record the list and headings; this is just one of them):

The University ofMICHIGANAn Encyclopedic Survey

 The University of MichaganAn Encyclopedic Survey VOLUME I History and Administration Organization; Services; Alumni VOLUME II College of Literature, Science, and the Arts—I College of Literature, Science, and the Arts—I; Summer Session Medical School; University Hospital; Law School [etc.] [and so on, as in question #3] The placement of the tag looks fine. 3. Yes, exactly, except that the BACK of the title page should be included as part of the same , so the should continue beyond the bottom of p. [iii], perhaps as a new paragraph, like this: UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN 1943

Copyright, 942byThe University of Michigan

... 4. Suggestion (b) is better. I'd go with nested lists, like this: CONTENTS Part I History and Administration The University of Michigan and State Education . . . . . 3 The Early History of the University of Michigan . . . . . 26 The Administration of Henry Philip Tappan . . . . . 39 [etc.] Part II Organization The University Senate and the Senate Council . . . . . 231 [etc.] Services The School of Education and State Service . . . . . 309 5. I do not know why s were omitted from the Guidelines. Just forgot them, I guess. If I understand you correctly, suggestion (a) is the right one. There is no need to preserve the note number once it has been used to identify the right place to insert the note. Our normal practice is to preserve instead the original location of the note on the page by using the "PLACE" attribute (PLACE="foot" for footnotes; PLACE="marg" for marginal notes, etc., as below). But even that can be skipped in this book, since there are so few notes, and no likelihood of conflict between different sets of notes. p. 116).For information on the influence of early sectarianism on the development of higher education ... Strong opposition ... 6. &mdash. Yes, that's good. 7. Yes. Is there a reason not to? You may have to do some fiddling with

s and s to make it parse, I suppose, perhaps like this:

Old University Hall

. But maybe that's not the question(?). 8. Good question. I had assumed that I would end up having to find these and tag them myself, but if you think you can identify these internal cross-references reliably, then go ahead and tag them like this, with :

... theories and practices (see Part I: Superintendent of Public Instruction).

This requires a change in the dtd. I have added REF to the content model of most elements by including it in the %HI entity. The modified dtd will be found on line at htp://www-personal.umich.edu/~pfs/med/vendor.dtd.txt 9. I suggest TYPE="appendix", N="A" The Constitutional Status of the University of Michigan ... APPENDIX A ... APPENDIX B ... ... SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY 10. Yes, if that's feasible. 11. Yes. 12. These look like s to me. The upper one would have Trustees and Visitors ... and a set of uninterrupted s beginning with "William Brown," running down the left column to "Alexander Macomb," then down the right column from "William W. Petit" to "John S. Roby." The second thing pointed to is another , with its own . 13. Yes, these references to external documents ought to be recorded simply as text. 14. Use suggestion (a): multiple docAuthor fields 15. Suggestion (a) is better than (b) (answer (b) won't parse), but maybe the following is even better, assuming that the second half of the heading looks like a subheading: Table IGeneral Classification 16. Text or table? I'd say neither. It looks to me like a containing one

(running from "Sometime ago at a meeting ..." to 'emblematic colors of the University of Michigan."') followed by one ; the contains one followed by three s, Committee: M. Jackson '67 A. H. Pattengill '68 J. E. Jackson Lit '65-'68 There are several other ways to encode this, but this seems the easiest. 17. This looks like a

(beginning in the left column with "It was in 1873 ...") containing a which itself contains six numbered s. The

ends with the end of the : "people.

18. Tables are always trouble. The best thing to do here, I think, is to treat the long curly braces as indicating what in HTML would be called a "ROWSPAN" attribute of the
element; the TEI equivalent is the "ROWS" attribute of the element. Take the items in the left column as defining the number or rows; when you reach a column with a brace in it, record the information in the to which it first applies, giving to the ROWS attibute a numberical value equal to the number of rows to which the information applies. So the top of the table on p. 290 would be recorded as: College of Engineering (Cont.)Degree Established First Conferred Discontinued Remarks Bachelor of science in civil engineering. 1881. Cal., 1881-82 1882 1909 These were the degrees in engineering from 1882 until Nov., 1909, when, by action of the Regents (R.P., 1906-10, p. 577) the degrees were to be bachelor of civil engineering, bachelor of mechanical engineering, etc. ... Bachelor of science in mechanical engineering. 1882 1909 Bachelor of science in mining engineering. 1886 1909 Bachelor of science in electrical engineering. June, 1889. R.P., 1886-91, p. 321 1890 1909 Bachelor of science in chemical engineering. Apr., 1898. R.P., 1896-1901, p. 212 1901 1909 Bachelor of science in marine engineering. Oct., 1901. R.P., 1896-1901, p. 732 1902 1909 Bachelor of science in preparation for engineering June, 1908. R.P., 1906-1910, p. 305 1908 Nov., 1909. R.P., 1906-1910, p. 577 Conferred at the end of four years of the six-year course I have needed to restore the "ROLE" "ROWS" and "COLS" attributes of the element to the dtd. Find the new version at http://www-personal.umich.edu/~pfs/med/vendor.dtd.txt 19. You have two choices, of which the first, I think, is the better: (1) Treat the tables on this page as separate
s; in that case "School of Dentistry" and "College of Architecture and Design" are s to their own tables. can appear within . So encode as follows:
School of DentistryCalled the College of Dental Surgery until January, 1937; School of Dentistry since that time. (2) Record the whole page (or set of pages) as a single
; in that case "School of Dentistry" occupies a filling one of that table, with attributes COLS="5" and ROLE="label": School of DentistryCalled the College of Dental Surgery until January, 1937; School of Dentistry since that time. I like method (1) better. 20. a. yes, except you've left off the "head" tags: SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY Angell, James B. The Reminiscences of ... New York: Longmans, Green, and Co., 1912. I thought of asking you to tag other info, such as date, but decided to leave it at this, as being the most easily tied to typographic clues (italics, small caps). b. No, don't use italic tags for the italic titles; the tag itself is good enough. I realize that this will leave non-italicized titles (such as article titles that appear in quotation marks, not in italics) untagged, but my assumption was that I should ask you to interpret the text as little as possible. Perhaps you can tell me: how feasible would it be to ask you to identify *all* titles in the bibliographies, not just the ones in italics? If you were able to do that, then of course the italicized titles would require <I> tags to distinguish them from the other ones. Let me know. c. "..." or "…"? I hadn't thought about it. I guess the entity rather than the keyboard periods. 21. Pipe replaces the hyphen. This was a rule developed for converting texts in medieval english, in which it was often impossible to tell if the word was normally hyphenated or not. If you feel able to decide that the word is normally hyphenated (i.e., is a valid compound), go ahead and use the ordinary hyphen. If in doubt, use the pipe. (We suppress the pipe in display, but keep it in the source file in order to preserve this information). -------SET 2------------ 1. This looks like the back of the title page. Include both the front and back of the title page in a single numbered <DIV TYPE="title page"> 2. Since this page may appear elsewhere than after the title page, we'd better treat it separately, i.e., your suggestion "b." As for the TYPE, I suggest simply TYPE="editors". 3. Series of four dots. Fine, treat it as … 4. On attachment #4, the text pointed to is in fact the continuation of a footnote that started at the bottom of the second column on the *previous page.* It should be included there. The reason that the name is incomplete is that the page break occurs in the middle of the name. <NOTE>For further information on these different universities, see Tewksbury, and also the <I>Contributions to American Educational History</I> series, edited by Herbert B. Adams and contained in the <I>Circulars of Information of the United States Bureau of Education,</I> 1887-1903. </NOTE> On attachment #5, record the name as usual. 5. Follow suggestion "a" (place only the names themselves within <AUTHOR> tags).
