The Digitized Shelves (L16·7)

As of November 2026 — shelf by shelf, from the build's actual reading routes

Internet Archive (archive.org). The build's verification shelf. Page images on this shelf are the settler-grade copies for Chapman, Howard, the Polk directories and the 1875 atlas itself — the DF-17 resolution in this section was read off this shelf's copy (item illustratedhisto00higg). The discipline that comes with the shelf is printed in Sources Part Five and kept here: the LDS Genealogy transcriptions circulating for these volumes are AI-generated, state so on their face, and are quoted at transcription strength only; wherever a figure matters — an acreage, a dollar — the page image governs. The atlas title page is the standing example: the archive's own djvu OCR of that leaf is garbled, the transcription of the same copy reads it clearly, and the catalog records confirm the reading; three witnesses, one shelf.

The state digital library: Indiana Memory and Hoosier State Chronicles. The build's newspaper and premium-list shelf. Hoosier State Chronicles carried the Daily State Sentinel of April 1, 1858, whose state-fair premium list the Fairs leg read whole, and the early county papers the apparatus works from — the St. Joseph Valley Register and the News-Times Mishawaka-page windows named in Sources. Indiana Memory is the state shelf's image side. This is also the shelf the open-questions ledger names for the 1858 premium list's opening installment (GAP-O10-F2: the Sentinel of late March 1858). What this shelf cannot do is substitute for the Mishawaka Enterprise's film run at MPHPL, which is a physical-shelf route and remains the paper-of-record path for the town.

HathiTrust and Google Books — stated honestly. No article in the record names a set work actually read on HathiTrust or on Google Books. Both were used in this build's search-and-locate work — the Ball State repository's copy of the 1964 PHM study (record id/12231) was located, not mined, and stands as GAP-OSSCH-4's settler — but a shelf statement that invented readings would fail the build's own rule. The route statement therefore prints as found: verification reading ran on archive.org page images; newspaper reading ran on Hoosier State Chronicles and library film; HathiTrust and Google Books served as discovery layers whose copies were not the copies of record. If a later pass reads a set work on either shelf, this article is where the reading gets entered.
