Use consistent spelling for the Source Collection Title, as spelling variants or typos will result in separate facets being generated.

Source Collection information is not required, but it is highly recommended to enter at least the title of a Source Collection. Consider supplying a collection name to facilitate browsing if now established collection name exists.
