Uploading Your Work to OswegoDL

OswegoDL asks for a lot of fields when you're uploading your work. Here are some tips on what information to put in which field:


Author: That's you! Enter your name as you would normally write it. If you have a co-author, hit the green plus sign so you can add their name in a separate box. 


Main Title: The title of your work.


Abstract: A couple sentences summarizing your work.


Note: Optional field; use it for anything you think people should know about this work.


Subject Keywords: A word or phrase describing what you wrote about, to help searchers find your work. To include more than one word/phrase, use the green plus sign to add the additional keywords in separate boxes. For example:

  • squirrels
  • dance parties
  • fencing

Publisher: If your work has been published elsewhere, list the publisher here.  Otherwise, you can leave this blank.


Resource Type: If you're going to upload a video, choose video. Otherwise, choose whatever is most appropriate - or leave this dropdown set to Unknown


Related URL: You could link to your personal website / blog, your digital portfolio, a site where your work was previously published... whatever makes sense.
