The finding aid displays do not include metadata from the <eadheader> section of the finding aid, namely, contextual information in these elements. This information should be displayed in the right-hand view. Examples:

  • filedesc: bibliographic information about the  finding aid, including its author, title, subtitle, and sponsor, as well  as the edition, publisher, publishing series, etc.
  • profiledesc: information about the creation of the encoded version of the finding aid
  • revisiondesc: includes a summary of the finding aid revision history
