•Books on the site replicate the print version to the best of our ability. Typographic and conversion errors, if detected, have been corrected.

•Book descriptions featured on the platform date to the book's original publication.

•Author biographies on the site are intended to be current (i.e., updated since the book was first published).

•Image captions appear in the eBook as shown in the original print publication. Separate metadata associated with the images, prepared by the A&AePortal editorial team and found by clicking on the "I" button superimposed on the images, often provides more up-to-date information than the original caption. Please note, however, that image metadata on the platform is not being updated in perpetuity, and researchers should take advantage of repository links that are provided whenever possible in the image metadata to find additional information.

•Any artwork discussed in multiple titles is reconciled under a single set of metadata. For this reason, image metadata may not always align with caption information.

•An explanatory note will appear in the few situations where additions or changes to a book's content were made.

•When multiple editions of a book exist, the most recent edition was used for the portal.

•When a footnote reference is made in one book to another title that also exists on the portal, a link has been added to the footnote so that the user can quickly access the cited reference, if desired.

•As all titles have been converted into XML to enable sophisticated searching, all books on the portal are presented in the same format. No design features specific to the book's original print version have been maintained.

•Some aspects of the print book are no longer valid or meaningful in the online version (e.g., page number references), but have been maintained to preserve the integrity of the original publication. Likewise, the book's original page numbers have not been retained in the conversion from print to digital, and there is a tool built into the site for creating automatic citations.

•Images used in the print publication to enhance the design and presentation (i.e., full-bleed details on frontispieces, etc.) have been removed.

•Images that do not comport with fair use have been removed, but the image metadata is retained on the site.

•There are out-of-print titles on the site for which the rights were reverted to the author. The original publication information is retained, but the electronic version on the portal is listed as a Yale University Press title.
