If there has been a merger of churches, organize records for each church separately. Add information about when and how the merger took place. If there is a specific sequence you want the records in, make a list giving the order they should appear on the DVD.
For each book or group of records, make a title sheet or "target" (see below). The target should include the type of record and dates, for example, "ANNUAL MEETING MINUTES 1956-1966." If there is information out of sequence, you should mention this, e.g., "Marriage records are continued at end of book." Blank pages are not digitized. You may want to list the blank pages on the target sheet so the user knows these pages are not missing. There may be some older books in a foreign language. It is a good idea to identify the language and include a copy of the translation if one is available. It is important to provide enough information so a user of the records can identify what they are looking at.
Please contact the archivist at the NUMC Archives if you have any questions about the digitization process.
Target Example:
Annual Meeting Minutes
1900 -- 1965
Special Notation: Pages 455-500 are blank and do not appear on the film.
