## **Media Originals**
At NYPL, a single AMI item is called a Media Original. AMI is stored by format in division-specific media originals boxes. Below is information on how to properly store AMI in media originals boxes. A general guiding principle is that the _AMI ID_ numbers should be visible when looking into the box. Once a media originals box is full, apply a barcode to the box and scan the barcode into the object record for that box in the Media Originals collection for the correct curatorial division in SPEC. See the section of this documentation about [barcode placement]() for information on how to barcode each box type.

**Media Originals Boxes**
Below is information on how to properly store audio and moving image items in media originals boxes. A general guiding principle is that the AMI ID numbers are visible when looking into the box. Once a media originals box is full, apply a barcode to the box and scan the barcode into the object record for that box in the Media Originals collection for the correct curatorial division in SPEC. The media originals collection number for each division is listed in the Creating New Media Originals Boxes section of this documentation. Consult with your manager to inditify the correct boxes for your collection. See the section of this documentation about barcode placement for information on how to barcode each box type.
