In the Market Anthology Panel, you enter descriptive information about your anthology.
Info Tab
In this tab, you can finalize your Anthology’s title. You are also required to add a subtitle. If you wish, your Anthology’s subtitle is a good place to feature your organization’s name. The "Abbreviated Anthology Title" is a 20 character or less version of your Anthology's title.
Description Tab
The description is just that—a short description of what your Anthology includes. This is similar to the descriptions you wrote for each piece of content, but on the Anthology level. It will appear inside your Anthology alongside your featured content. We recommend that you keep your description to 80 words, or three or four sentences. You can write about what type of content is in your Anthology, how much content is in there and, if applicable, a little bit about the organization. For example:
Cooking: A Historical Collection offers an anthology of more than 100 books, articles and images in four curated collections. The anthology features vintage recipes from the early 20th century, classroom textbooks, international cookbooks and even fictional stories influenced by food. Veteran chefs and amateur cooks alike will enjoy perusing the nostalgic roots of cooking that we still enjoy today.
For additional examples of Anthology Descriptions, please see Example Anthology Descriptions.
SEO Tab
SEO stands for “Search Engine Optimization.” The information you enter here will be used to promote your anthology on search engines such as Google, Bing and Yahoo.
Keywords: List at least 16 keywords related to your topic. Include any words, phrases or topics that someone interested in your topic may search for. This will ultimately pave their way to your anthology. Separate your keywords with commas. For example:
cooking, food, cuisine, recipes, vintage cookbooks, home economics, homemaking, meat, poultry, breakfast, lunch, dinner, supper, dessert, electric cooking, skillet.
SEO Description: This will be displayed in various search engines when someone searches for one of your 16+ keywords. It should summarize your anthology, be inviting and include as many keywords as possible. For example:
Explore the world of cooking with this collection of books, images and documents about cooking, food, cuisine, recipes, homemaking and more.
Audience Description: Complete the sentence, “This anthology is ideal for individuals interested in ________.” For example:
This anthology is ideal for individuals interested in cooking, vintage recipes, homemaking, international cuisine and food-inspired stories.
Overview Tab
In this tab, you will enter your Anthology Overview. For historical topics, the Overview is an informative essay that gives a general background of your Anthology's subject. It can give your audience an idea of what to expect in the anthology or weave your content and collections together into a cohesive overview of the topic.
For Anthologies that come from a separate institution, this space can be used to give more information on the organization.
To see examples of how to use this space, visit Example Anthology Overviews.
Categories
You are required to choose at least one subject category from our list of available options. You are encouraged to choose four, in descending importance. These categories correspond with how Anthologies are sorted on the BiblioBoard home page, so you'll want to make your choices wisely.
