The metadata elements clustered under Relationships identify media items of similar intellectual content to the asset management record currently being browsed. Related media items fall into four groups: 1. Suggested Related Media 2. Is part of (parent relationship) 3. Is related to these parts (sibling relationship) 4. Has these parts (child relationship) In each case, the four related groups exist as "Container" fields in Telescope. Only items and records internal to Telescope can be added to a Container Field. A related media item that is physically held external to Telescope cannot be added to a Container Field...but the record describing the external, physical media item could be. If it cannot, then the search that is conducted by the end user in order to discover media items on a certain subject will result in a list of externally held, physical media items. If a media item is simply a different file format of exactly the same content as another media item, then, according to Telescope protocols, the assets are considered "renditions" of the same metadata record. For example, a transcript in PDF form is another rendition of a video clip. |

SIMILAR MEDIA ITEMS identifies media items of similar intellectual content to the asset management record currently being browsed. Specifically, SIMILAR MEDIA ITEMS refers to other media types or items that do not exhibit parental, sibling, or child relationships to the main media item being viewed. For example, an image of an art work may be related to a completely independent manuscript about the artist (if the catalogers deem the relationship to be overwhelmingly informative). |

Think of SIMILAR MEDIA ITEMS as additional title recommendations that Amazon.com or Barnes & Noble.com offer when you select a particular book or title to investigate. Because this is a "Telescope container field," only digital assets internal to the DAM system can be referenced here. Physical assets cannot be included, except for their metadata records. NOTE: The umap_title_contextual metadata field (based on a functional rule that harvests its contents from other contextual title fields) may contains similar references. However, the contextual title field only names the related assets; it does not provide any sort of hyper-linking that allows previewing or review of metadata information. |

If a media item is simply a different file format of exactly the same content as another media item, then, according to Telescope protocols, the assets are considered "renditions" of the same metadata record. For example, a transcript in PDF form is another rendition of a video clip. For this example, the PDF rendition would NOT be entereed as SIMILAR MEDIA ITEMS. Because this is a "Telescope container field," only digital assets internal to the DAM system can be referenced here. Physical assets cannot be included, except for their metadata records.
