Video: Conservation in the Twin Creek Valley, Digital Movie DVD-R, 16.5 minutes
Scope and Contents
The collection is divided into 24 series, including a General Files series and one series for each individual park. The bulk of the records are categorized under General Files because Five Rivers MetroParks manages its units as a cohesive organization. This was clearly represented in their filing practices. Additional records were filed at the series level by park name, for example, “Riverscape,” when records were clearly labeled and organized at the park level.
All series are divided into one of 15 subseries based on the types of records. This arrangement scheme of 15 predefined subseries is applicable to all series. For instance, a scientific report conducted at Germantown Metropark is filed under “Series 8: Germantown, Subseries C: Reports and Assessments.” Applying the same subseries to all series promotes uniformity and scalability; however, please note that every series does not necessarily contain instances of every available subseries.
The published Scope and Content Notes describes only materials that are processed and available for research.
