<text>This is the current release and comes with many features requested by users. Several features will assist users in a team
environment, such as many project import/export options and more reusable metadata mapping in crosswalks and via
data dictionaries. Support for removable drives was expanded and we added support for alphabetized folders. There
is also now an image preview for originals or items in the arrangement. A new feature added for CDR work flow is
design of ad hoc deposit forms. A visual editor lets users build deposit forms, mapping input fields to MODS records.
These forms can be deployed to a form-hosting service and used to make repository deposits via SWORD.</text>

>The Curator’s Workbench is a collection preparation and work flow tool for digital materials. It is designed to
acquire and process file structures efficiently while giving archivists and other curators control over their work.
The workbench can assist with accession, arrangement, description and staging of digital objects and is commonly
used to prepare batch submissions to a repository. The workbench provides information and controls to help you
select and arrange. It handles routine accessioning tasks for you, such as staging files, generating checksums and
building a manifest file. The main workbench window is divided into three parts. The Project Navigator area is on
the left side of the workbench. It displays all the projects in your workspace and their contents. Each project is
divided into three sections, which are Originals, the Arrangement and Crosswalks.</text>
