Proper way to credit CollectiveAccess on our website

carlosTF

Hi,

We are about to launch a new website built around CollectiveAccess.

The entire backend and collection management system is managed with Providence. On the public-facing side, we have extensively customized Pawtucket, including highly tailored browse and detail pages that differ significantly from the default implementation.

Despite these customizations, we consider CollectiveAccess to be a cornerstone of the project and would like to acknowledge it accordingly. Our website includes a Credits section where we recognize the third-party projects and contributions that have helped make the site possible, and we would very much like to include CollectiveAccess there.

Is there a preferred or recommended way to credit CollectiveAccess? For example, is there any specific wording, logo, attribution statement, or link that you would recommend us to use?

Thank you — and also thank you for making CollectiveAccess available and for the support provided by the team and this community.

We are happy to hear that you've been able to complete your project. Congratulations!

A simple link to the project web site is fine or crediting.

Hi Carlos,
What's the URL for your website? I enjoy visiting other sites built with CA.
Your project could be added to the map, because it's great to show that many sites use it; that might help convince other organizations to use CA!😀

darrigan The website is in the final stages of development and will be available at miquelfarrealbages.art by mid-September.

I'm afraid you will recognize very little of Pawtucket, as we have extensively customized the browse and detail pages, among other areas. Of course, if you're still comfortable adding it to the map, please feel free to do so — we'd be very happy to be listed!

As soon as it goes live, I'll let you know.
