NAME

formatPhysical

DEFINITION
Help

Use the descriptor formatPhysical to identify the format of a particular version or rendition of a media item as it exists in an actual physical form that occupies physical space (e.g., a tape on a shelf), rather than as a digital file residing on a server or hard drive. The picklist contains many legacy and archival formats from which to choose.
