### **Note**
**Definition:** General textual information relating to a resource.
**Obligation:** Optional; repeatable

**Type of field:** Text (formatted, long)
**Application:**
* A less formal description of the item, written using free text.

* Such notes should be as concise as possible!
* This field can also be used to note contents, missing pages, or condition notes for the physical item.
* You can use a note to explain discrepancies in dates, i.e. if there is a photograph on a postcard that was taken earlier than the postcard was printed, etc.

**Examples:**
* "Extract from the Minutes." Signed by T[imothy] Matlack, secretary.
* A "correct copy of the record in the office of the Board of Revision of Taxes"; copied in Philadelphia, July 20, 1868
* Leather bound with blank pages.

The life of Esther De Berdt, afterwards Esther Reed, of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia, 1853), p. 313-324.;Followed by, on p. [2]: Ideas, relative to the manner of forwarding to the American soldiers, the presents of the American women.;Imprint from colophon. The American Antiquarian Society copy was found bound after the June 10, 1780, issue of the Pennsylvania packet, printed at Philadelphia by John Dunlap.

Obligation: Optional; not repeatable
Enter Data into Spreadsheet Column: field_subtitle
Type of field: Text (plain)
Application:

### **URL Alias**
Definition: An alias for a default URL.
Obligation: Optional; not repeatable
Enter Data into Spreadsheet Column: url_alias
Type of field: Text (plain)
Application:
* Use this field if you have multiple objects with the same exact title.
* Put the URL you would like for each of your objects, starting with the “/” following your root domain.
* So if your site is mysite.com and an object on your existing site with a title of “My Object” has a URL of mysite.com/islandora/object/islandora:123, you could put in your CSV a URL alias for that object of /islandora/object/islandora:123. On ingest, that object will get a custom URL instead of /islandora/my-object.
