Hi VivienLea, We do print file labels at Houghton Library. We have a specific type of label that we use that has been approved for preservation reasons by our preservation and end processing team. The one other institution I've spoken with about these also uses those labels: Demco A-16, which are 1" x 4" labels.
Please let me know if you have any questions and I can put you in touch more with those who make the decisions around these things!

But we don't use that feature. I think Yale may though. jds ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Solek, VivianLea <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, March 1, 2022 11:59 AM To: Archivesspace Users Group <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Folder label creation from resource record AAhh…thank you very much for clarifying.

Folders are done by hand with pencil. The labels we use are Dymo 30625 which are in no way preservation quality. jds ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> on behalf of Solek, VivianLea <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Tuesday, March 1, 2022 11:48 AM To: Archivesspace Users Group <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Folder label creation from resource record Good morning all, With the discussion re: preprinted labels, I’m curious what labels you are using. Regular Avery file labels? Specialized labels with acid-free glue? Is anyone concerned about the long-term preservation issues associated with sticky labels? I’ve had too many older files that were labelled with sticky labels where the labels have fallen off so I’m generally shy about using them, even if they meet preservation standards…. Very curious how folks are addressing these issues. Many thanks.

It does require some additional CSS depending on the label layout you are using, but there are some examples in the plugin.

Although this program is not intended to be Northwestern-specific, it is still an open question whether or not it can meet anyone else’s needs. Anyone interested in exploring the possibilities can contact Gary Strawn directly ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>).

We have been using a Windows PowerShell script that runs over the exported EAD XML file to pull out appropriately leveled container information but have run into problems with it off and on. I'd love to hear what others are doing to create folder labels in an automated way from a resource record if anyone has ideas or solutions to recommend. Thanks for your time!
