Is there a guide somewhere on how to properly upload a music album to the Internet Archive? I've read about the basic stuff but I'd like to also add more stuff besides the music and cover: a scan of the booklet/back/spine as well as stuff like CUE/TOC files. Basically everything that's needed to preserve it entirely.
