 If you want to add a collection page for a collection that does not yet have a full finding aid, it's easy enough to create a stub EAD record using the information in UMarmot. For a good example of a stub collection-level record, look at collection_mums700.xml on oubliette.

 The line above will sort the collection under "D" for Du Bois but display the collection title, W. E. B. Du Bois Papers. Changes to this file usually take effect after ingest.

+====== Adding series-level records to collection-level records in Credo ======
+Series-level landing pages can be created for collections in Credo. These pages allow the user to search within a specific series and includes Title, Collection #, Extent, Series Overview, Language and Location of that series/collection.
+===== 1. Creating the series page(s) =====
+Before a series page can be created you must add the following elements to the EAD/XML //collection page//:
+<code xml>
+<dsc type="combined" id="contlist">
+  <c01 level="series">
+    <did>
+      <unittitle><extref href="mums312-s01">Series 1. Correspondence</extref></unittitle>
+      <unitdate>1877-1965</unitdate>
+      <physdesc>195.50 boxes</physdesc>
+      <physdesc>
+        <extent>(81.52 linear feet)</extent>
+      </physdesc>
+    </did>
+  </c01>
+</code>
+In the series-level record, the following elements must be included to link out to items in the series on Credo:
+<code xml>
+<dsc type="combined" id="contlist">
+  <c01 level="series" id="mums312-s01">
+    <did>
+      <unittitle>Series 1. Correspondence</unittitle>
+      <unitdate>1877-1965</unitdate>
+      <physdesc>
+        <extent>195.50 Boxes (81.52 linear feet)</extent>
+      </physdesc>
+    </did>
+   </c01>
+</code>
+Information about the arrangement of the series and a scope note for the series can be added to the series-level record as well.
+When making a series page, the MODS record for every individual item in the series must include a <relatedItem> element pointing to the series as follows. The identifier must be the same as in the series ID in the //collection page//.
+<code xml>
+<mods:relatedItem type="series">
+  <mods:titleInfo>
+    <mods:title>Series 1. Correspondence</mods:title>
+  </mods:titleInfo>
+<mods:typeOfResource>mixed material</mods:typeOfResource>
+<mods:identifier type="uri">mums312-s01</mods:identifier>
+</mods:relatedItem>
+</code>
+This goes after the <relatedItem> element that points to the collection page (the @type="host"). Like the collection page, the @type="series" in <mods:relatedItem>, the unique ID for the collection in <mods:identifier type="uri">, and the title of the series in <mods:title> must be consistent across all records.
+In Fedora, the //series-level// record should be added to the folder where the items in that series live. Like the collection-level record, **do not** add the series-level record to the ingest folder, just add the file to the correct series folder.
+**TIP:**
+  * Make sure to create the file in the spec_collections/EAD folder so the DTD will not throw an error. You can then move the file to a collection folder.
+  * Watch out for extra elements and XML errors.
+  * There is a template for a series-level record in spec_collections/credo/metadata/templates
+===== 2. Link to items in a subseries from the series-level record in Credo =====
+//Note: this is only necessary if items from specific subseries in a collection are in Credo.//
+If a series has subseries, all items in that subseries can be linked to from the series page. To do so, add the following to the series-level record, //after// the closing </controlaccess> element and //before// the closing </c01> tag:
+<code xml>
+<c02 level="subseries">
+ <did>
+  <unittitle><extref href="mums312-s01A">A. General Correspondence</extref></unittitle><unitdate>1877-1965</unitdate><physdesc/></did>
+    </c02>
+  <c02 level="subseries">
+   <did><unittitle>
+    <extref href="mums312-s01B">B. Crisis Correspondence</extref>
+   </unittitle>
+    <unitdate normal="1911/1934">1911-1934</unitdate></did>
+    </c02>
+</code>
+The MODS record for each item in the subseries must include another <relatedItem> element pointing to the subseries:
+<code xml>
+<mods:relatedItem type="series">
+  <mods:titleInfo>
+    <mods:title>Series 1A. General Correspondence</mods:title>
+  </mods:titleInfo>
+<mods:typeOfResource>mixed material</mods:typeOfResource>
+<mods:identifier type="uri">mums312-s01A</mods:identifier>
+</mods:relatedItem>
+</code>
+Again, the @type="series" in <mods:relatedItem>, the unique ID for the collection in <mods:identifier type="uri">, and the title of the collection in <mods:title> must be consistent across all records.
+The subseries <relatedItem> element should be placed //after// the series <relatedItem> element, and this order **does matter** for the hierarchy of the links at the top of the item record page in Credo. For example, when the series <relatedItem> element comes before the subseries <relatedItem> element in an item record, the top of the page for the item looks like this:
+{{::series.png?600|}}
+If the subseries is placed before the series in the item record, it looks like this instead:
+{{:subseries.png?600|}}
