Moved from the old DLPS wiki, and here until there are no more Michigan Publishing materials in DLXS.
Not all this material is up-to-date.
DLXS Procedure
This document describes the procedure that must be followed by the person building a new resource (collection or single publication) and notes which of these steps apply to DCC or MPublishing only. Some steps involve the collections manager—Chris (sooty
) for DCC or Jeremy (jgmorse
) for MPublishing—and this procedure notes how to prompt the collections manager to do what is needed. While the directions are written with DLXS in mind, a number of steps still apply to non-DLXS collections as well.
Steps beginning with an asterisk should be followed every time a collection is re-released (when content is added). An asterisk in parentheses indicates that the step might need to be followed.
