Thoth User Manual
This user manual gives an overview of the main features of Thoth with the aim of helping publishers using Thoth to create, manage, and disseminate title metadata. This manual is a work in progress and has been written from the perspective of a publisher managing their metadata in Thoth.
A video walkthrough of Thoth's metadata manager / backend is available in multiple languages here:
- Spanish: Demostración de la interfaz de Thoth para editoriales: https://youtu.be/GkTNis6kRyM
- Brazilian-Portuguese: Demonstração da interface do Thoth para editoras: https://youtu.be/iYLaBib_jfY
- English: Thoth's interface for publishers: https://youtu.be/sPwynCcU_O0
This manual has been updated on September 26, 2024, and pertains to Thoth version 0.12.9 (see changelog).
The backend of Thoth can be accessed by clicking the Admin menu item in the top toolbar. After filling in your credentials, you will arrive at the main screen called Dashboard. The dashboard allows access to six different metadata entry forms that can be used to enter and modify publication metadata. The same forms can be accessed by means of the side menu on the left.
The Thoth Wiki has been developed in the context of the COPIM (Community-led Open Publication Infrastructures for Monographs) project. Individual contributions to the wiki have been made by Tim Elfenbein, Joanne Fitzpatrick, Rupert Gatti, Ross Higman, Hannah Hillen, Brendan O'Connell, Tobias Steiner, and Vincent W.J. van Gerven Oei under the general editorship of Van Gerven Oei.
