Using the site
Woolf Online provides the following:
- Texts
- Contexts
- Resources
- Copyright & Credits
- Texts appear either as images of original documents, or transcriptions of them, or both image and transcription in transparent mode. (See the help menu for Transparent View).
- The upper right corner of each screen indicates what one is looking at, who you are (if you signed in), what your status is, and when you logged in.
- Clicking on a content item in the menu will either expand the menu for more detailed listings or take one to a "Taxonomy" chart for the item or category selected that fully identifies the materials and the views that can be taken for the material. This chart indicates the original source documents and their location in physical archives.
- Navigation from the Taxonomy chart to specific documents is through the links in the right-hand column--which may initially take one to another more specific Taxonomy chart.
