In the current site -- These three pages need to be included in the new site Table of type = https://daviesproject.princeton.edu/winscript/types.php Definition of types = https://daviesproject.princeton.edu/databases/typesGlossary.html Sources of data = https://daviesproject.princeton.edu/databases/sources.html Notes (legacy) = https://daviesproject.princeton.edu/winscript/mcmullenCommentsForm.php?all The General Notes section of this page = https://daviesproject.princeton.edu/databases/helpNotes.html

Nota bene: ‘General notes’ at end has two links https://libweb5.princeton.edu/Visual_Materials/mcmullen/jpg/tab1.jpg https://libweb5.princeton.edu/Visual_Materials/mcmullen/jpg/tab2.jpg

I have the image of ‘tab1.jpg’ from the Wayback Machine. See= https://web.archive.org/web/20150827065113if_/http://libweb5.princeton.edu/visual_materials/mcmullen/jpg/tab1.jpg

Wayback can’t provide ‘tab2.jpg’ -- Maybe that’s on a server available to Library IT

Confirm with Steve that he really wants all of these pages migrated verbatim. Quite a few of them are out of date, or apply only to the old sites (instructions for using the search form, for example).

The sources.html file is an old MS Word export of a table to HTML. CollectionBuilder will not process this file until we clean it up.

OIT will need to dump the data from the comments form, unless you want me to copy/paste each one and reformat it by hand.

The files tab1.jpg and tab2.jpg are here on Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/131AbLYVreEuaxxgqDejMcse7Svyu8GO4/view?usp=drive_link

and in this repository: https://github.com/pulibrary/davies_project_data

Is it sufficient to have them archived in this way, rather than displayed on the site?
