Go to “File,” “Open Project,” and select “Italy, Ravenna, Tribunale di Ravenna, Civil Registration, 1866-1929 – DB [1]” from the drop-down menu, then click “OK.”
#Waypoint all Administrative images.  Only Title Boards, Focus Images, and other non-original images should be marked as Administrative.  Please do not mark book covers or other parts of the original documents as Administrative.


#The Consolidated Form for this project has the following fields:
Go to “File,” “Open Project,” and select “Italy, Ravenna, Tribunale di Ravenna, Civil Registration, 1866-1929 – DB [1]” from the drop-down menu, then click “OK.”


a. Provincia [Province]
1. Waypoint all Administrative images. Only Title Boards, Focus Images, and other non-original images should be marked as Administrative. Please do not mark book covers or other parts of the original documents as Administrative.
b. Comune o frazione [City or Town]
c. Registro / Serie [Record Type / Series]
d. Anno - Principio [Beginning Year]
e. Anno - Fine [Ending Year]
f. Numero dell’unita’ archivistica (busta o registro) [Number of Archival Unit (envelope or register)]


The Provincia field will always be filled automatically.  If you find a folder from a province other than Ravenna, please call the Project Owner.  You can get the “Comune o frazione” and “Registro / Serie” fields from one of two locations.  First, the Notes window will contain the Comune or Frazione field in the “Authors” or “Subjects” line and the Registro / Serie is in the “Film Notes” line.  Second, most books will list the city and record type on their cover or title page.
2. The Consolidated Form for this project has the following fields:


The Anno fields are for the year range of the waypoint. This project should be Waypointed on a book level, which means most waypoints will only have one year and should be recorded in one-year format: 1890.  Do not put the same year twice, in the beginning year and ending year fields.

#Most of the time, you will have one book of records per year.  If there are multiple books of the same record type for the same years, you can waypoint them together.  For example, if there are two books of “Matrimoni” for 1884, one of which covers images 1-25, and the second 26-50, your waypoint range would be 1-50.
