Nathan,
We leave the handling of the institutional
logo to our style sheet, however we do embed a specific image from each
collection into the EAD that is then positioned via the style sheet. You
can see the ead-xml source code of any of our findings aids using the ‘view
source’ function in your browser. http://www.providence.edu/Archives/Browse+the+Collections.htm
Since the institutional logo is not part
of any of our collections, I wouldn’t consider using it in the ead,
unless the collection was the institutional records that the logo represented.
Hope that helps.

Subject: Embedding Institutional
Logos
Good morning everyone,
I'm currently experimenting with embedding our institutional logo in
the finding aid, rather than relying on the stylesheet to insert it. Has
anyone else taken this approach? If so, I'm curious about where and how
you inserted the image.
So far I've tried using the <extptr> tag within archdesc | did |
repository, but am not having much luck; instead of the desired image, I
end up with a black outlined box. Here's the code I'm
using: <extptr actuate="onload"
href="style/aja1.gif" title="AJA Logo"
show="embed" />.
Thanks,
Nathan Tallman
