Abstract
The image log documents visual assets selected for inclusion in an NMOER educational resource, providing structured metadata to support accessibility, licensing compliance, and production planning. The log includes details such as figure number, title, caption, alternative text, source, copyright and permission status, and notes for both production and author review. The recorded example features an Ikigai diagram illustrating the intersection of passion, mission, profession, and vocation, accompanied by descriptive alt text for accessibility. Licensing is identified as public domain, with notes indicating that a redraw using a blue and purple color palette is recommended while confirming whether existing text colors should remain unchanged. This log ensures transparency, reproducibility, and accessibility of visual materials throughout the publishing workflow.

Comments
The image log is a structured table used to track figures for an NMOER publication. It contains fields for image number, figure label, title, caption, alternative text, originality status, source link, permission status, redraw requirements, and production notes. The listed entry corresponds to Figure 1.1, titled “Ikigai diagram,” which visually represents four overlapping circles illustrating the Japanese concept of ikigai—the intersection of what one loves, what one is good at, what the world needs, and what one can be paid for. The caption explains the conceptual purpose of the diagram, while the alternative text describes the overlapping circles to ensure accessibility for screen readers. The image source is provided via Wikimedia Commons and identified as public domain, with a redraw requested to adjust colors to shades of blue and purple. Additional notes include production guidance and an author query regarding whether existing text colors should remain unchanged.
