Recording notes

This data element is used to specify the author or holder of the usage rights of the media file. If both of these are available, they must be entered in separate elements. This data element is mandatory for media files that are not in the public domain. If the media file is in the public domain, the author may be named, but not the rights holder. If necessary, e. g. the photographer or those involved in digitization may also be provided in a separate data element (in LIDO: <lido:resourceSource>). If the author or photographer is not known, this can be indicated (e.g., by stating "not documented").

CARE: In the case of collection items from colonial contexts, the primary cultural sovereignty lies with the communities of origin. Please note the information on the Usage rights of the media file (see LIDO expression).
