Epsilon Submission Toolbox

Use this toolbox to decide how to prepare your collection for Epsilon.

I. Get the Toolbox

1. You can obtain a copy of the toolbox by either
   • downloading and unzipping it
   • or by cloning our repository using Git.

II. Choose your submission pathway

1. Decide what you are delivering.
   • Do you only have metadata about the letters or transcriptions in separate word processor or HTML files? Follow the CSV submission guidelines.
   • Do you have or want to make transcriptions in TEI and want to submit them according to best practice in the Digital Humanities? Follow the TEI submission workflow.
2. Confirm any project requirements with your Epsilon contact (licensing, authority lists, timelines).
3. Work through the detailed guide for the route you chose.

What each section contains

• csv/ holds the submission documentation, key template, and sample files you can copy and customise.
• tei/ gathers the work-in-progress TEI guidance, document templates, and HTML documentation.

Working tips

• Keep local copies of anything you customise; do not edit the toolbox originals directly.
• Validate your data before packaging.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the Epsilon editorial team before proceeding.
