Jenny, can you please explain what you mean by "change the entry in that
field when creating my master source?"  Which field?  I don't understand how
"online image" relates to any field in the template, to begin with, so I
don't know what field I am supposed to change or what I should change it to.

That's the assumption I would make.

  I also nitpicked about the use of "online image;" I assume that

No, an online image is an actual digital image of an original document. 
If the words have been copied (typed or OCR'd) then it is a Transcription.
The distinction is important because you cannot be assured of the accuracy
of a transcription.

In the case of the Newspaper template which only offers Online Images as a
content type, I would simply change the entry in that field when creating my
Master Source.
