 +ICONCLASS is added to provide a language undependable subject code. Please describe all elements you see on the mark, for example a stamp, or an image on an Ex Libris. The more codes you add, the more the mark is findable for others. If you only have for example an Ex Libris, add the code 49M8 (Ex Libris) or one of the codes that you will encounter often when describing provenance marks:
 +  * 49M8 Ex Libris
 +  * 49L7 handwriting, written tekst
 +  * 49L65 seal, stamp
 +  * 49L27 mark of ownership
 +  * 49L17 initial

 +If you could not identify the former owner, please use the input form to describe the image in as much detail as you can and then switch on ‘Can You Help?’ by toggling the slide at the top. You can add a specific question to the Notes field. The image will then show up in the ‘Can You Help?’ forum https://pda.cerl.org/canyouhelp. Other scholars might be able to help  you to identify it. If they are registered, they can give this information via the button Comments in the full display mode. You can retrieve all unidentified records by clicking ‘Can You Help?’ in the blue bar at the top of your screen.

 +===== FULL DISPLAY OF A RECORD =====

 +
 +**Comment**\\
 +Users who are logged in will see this Comment button. Those registered users can attach their comments to a record created by another PDA user.
 +
 +**IIIF**\\
 +This gives you access to a piece of code, which you can copy to paste the image in another application.
 +
 +**Copy URI to clipboard**\\
 +The permanent identifier for the PDA record is copied to the clipboard and can be pasted in other documents, for example your article in Word.
 +
 +{{ :resources:provenance:schermopname_745_.png?600 |}}\\
 +
 +Towards the bottom of certain records just before the image, you may see a **link to the Material Evidence in Incunabula database (MEI)**. Clicking on that link will give you the full MEI record for this item.
 +
 +Under the image you find **the timestamp** for the PDA record, and the name of the editor who added this particular record to the PDA.
 +
 +In the black bar at the bottom you will find **CERL’s data policy for the PDA**, and our copyright notice.
