IA logins

Macaw page
The purpose of this page is to document what is needed in order to obtain the proper IA logins and permissions to add to the <biodiversity> collection in IA
Notes about IA accounts and collections
- Only one email address can be associated with an Internet Archive account.
- Multiple Internet Archive accounts can be given permission to modify a collection.
- If more than one person will be uploading and/or modifying content in a collection at IA, then an account should be established for each person.
Setting up an IA account with permission to edit
- If you don't already have an account at Internet Archive, create an account by navigating to http://www.archive.org/account/login.createaccount.php and completing the form.
- Contact Bianca Crowley crowleyb@si.edu to ask for access to the "biodiversity" collection in IA
Setting up a new IA collection [OPTIONAL]
If you are only scanning/uploading content to IA for BHL you may not need your own collection.
See
https://archive.org/about/faqs.php#Collections for details.
Sending books to IA for scanning?
Additional steps are necessary for new partners to scan with Internet Archive using their Scribe System.** IA requires a
'partner form' be filled out and submitted to the local scanning center coordinator, or book scanning coordinator at IA HQ, Ginger Bisharat. In this form, a contributing library must specify what funding source ("Sponsor"), collection(s), and scanning center their library will be using. If a contributing library uses multiple sponsors, scanning centers, or collections, each combination of these must be "registered" at IA in order for their material to be uploaded to IA successfully. This form also tells IA how to configure your Z39.50 fetch, and provides for setting up a collection just for that contributing library. (3/23/12 KT)
IA collections & accounts
- Collection: biodiversity -- primary BHL collection at Internet Archive. All materials scanned by BHL partners should be made a part of this collection.
- Collection: botanicus
- Collection: darwinslibrary
- Collection: seedcatalogs
- "botanicus", "seedcatalogs" and "darwinslibrary" have been set up as "subcollections" of "biodiversity", rather than as standalone collections. This means that accounts that are given access to "biodiversity" also have access to "botanicus" "seedcatalogs" and "darwinslibrary". No permissions are granted explictly to the child collections.
