====== TEI Encoding ======

===== Encoding transcriptions =====
  
We are using a very simple TEI template to encode the transcriptions from "The Correspondence of W. E. B. Du Bois."  The complete transcriptions are in ''r:/dubois_projects/dubois_digitization/metadata/dubois_ocr''.  Each volume is in its own text file.  

The transcriptions are encoding using the TEI template for correspondence.  The template file is available in ''r:/dubois_projects/dubois_digitization/metadata/mods/tempaltes'' but the best way to use it is through oXygen.  Simply open a new file, select the "From template" tab and choose the tei-corres template:

{{:tei-template.png?400|TEI template in oXygen}}

From there, you can cut and paste into the template from the original transcription text file.

The TEI files should be saved using the same naming scheme but with -tei appended at the end.  For example:

''mums312-b001-i001-tei.xml''
