Projects are created when FamilySearch approves a contract with custodians of records it has identified as having genealogical value. When the contract has been approved, the Collection Operations and Imaging Services teams organize the contract into projects and listings. Each listing provides the information for the camera operator to obtain specific records from the archive and to create one or more digital folders. These folders will store the images of the records that the camera operator will capture. You can think of DCam projects, listings, and folders much like the organization of a filing cabinet.
The Projects, Listings, and Folders (PLF) Screen
To manage a project, listing, or folder, on the DCam home screen, click Manage Projects, Listings, and Folders.
The screen is divided into 3 sections. Click a project to see the listings. Click a listing to see the folders that have been created for that listing. To return to the home screen, click Home.
