Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] logrotate and "binary" logs

[Blake Carver]

archivesspace.out should for sure be "ASCII text, with very long lines"
If it's something else, there's something wrong somewhere.

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] logrotate and "binary" logs

Hi all -

I recently setup logrotate according to the helpful blurb in the tech-
docs[1], which has been great for our disk usage but seems to have
introduced a change in the log file's `file` type.

Before logrotate, we had


$ file archivesspace.out
aspace-log.out: ASCII text, with very long lines

and now with logrotate in play, we have

$ file as-log.out
as-log.out: data

which causes all sorts of trouble if I want to do anything other than
tail a log :).

I guess I was hoping someone may a suggestion or two about how to
approach this, either from the logrotate side or perhaps using another
utility to either modify the `file` metadata or parse the binary format
to something greppable?

Thanks for any advice you can share. My searching hasn't panned out.
Best,
Bridger

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Webinar Announcement - Virtual Every Step of the Way: Migrating to ArchivesSpace during Remote Work

[Jessica Crouch]

Dear ArchivesSpace users,

ArchivesSpace will be offering a webinar on implementing ArchivesSpace in a 
remote work environment. In this webinar, Tomaro Taylor, Amanda Boczar, and 
Anastasia Temkina of USF Libraries - Tampa Special Collections will illustrate 
how they structured their complete migration to ArchivesSpace in a remote 
environment, including the active incorporation of student workers with various 
levels of archival experience.



When: July 7, 2021


Time: 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. ET (11:00 a.m. – 12:00 pm PT)


Where: Zoom



Registration: https://lyrasis.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_p_-DXUf8S1KlEYmsheGujw



This webinar will be recorded and made available on the ArchivesSpace YouTube 
channel.



Webinar description:



In February 2020, USF Libraries – Tampa Special Collections formally began the 
process to migrate to ArchivesSpace. Those discussions quickly stalled, 
however, when the University asked that they begin to formulate continuity of 
operations plans for remote work in preparations for what was then a 
hypothetical shutdown.

Early into lockdown, USF determined that it would actually be the perfect time 
to migrate to ArchivesSpace. The campus was closed, no Reading Room services 
could be provided, and staff wanted to engage in meaningful projects. Guiding a 
team consisting of librarians, staff, and student employees, Special 
Collections organized a multi-phase plan for preparing data for migration, 
undergoing migration, and cleaning records in ArchivesSpace. As staff begin to 
gain more physical access in 2021, they are finalizing the clean up and ready 
to engage with patrons using ArchivesSpace.



In this webinar, Tomaro Taylor, Amanda Boczar, and Anastasia Temkina of USF 
Libraries - Tampa Special Collections will illustrate how they structured their 
complete migration to ArchivesSpace in a remote environment, including the 
active incorporation of student workers with various levels of archival 
experience. No one on staff had prior experience with ArchivesSpace and all 
members of the team were trained in stages. They will also address how this 
project encouraged a more holistic reassessment, including systematically 
evaluating finding aids for missing information, conscious editing of 
descriptive content and subject headings, and the addition of classification 
headers.



A Q will follow.

Subject: Finding Aid Discovery Platform Survey

Dear all,

We here at the University of Georgia are interested in how users of 
ArchivesSpace are making their finding aids available online. This short, 
10-to-15-minute survey asks about what 
discovery platform your organization/institution uses and how you have fit it 
to your needs. A discovery platform is defined as a web application designed 
specifically for sharing finding aids online to allow users to search and 
browse them. Some examples of discovery platforms include the ArchivesSpace PUI 
(Public User Interface), ArcLight, and XTF (eXtensible Text Framework).

The data will be aggregated and confidential and we will not be collecting 
emails. We may share the results with the community, but if you feel 
uncomfortable answering a question, you are free to skip it. Please try to 
complete the survey by June 18.

If you have any questions about the survey, please contact the ArchivesSpace 
Project Manager at the University of Georgia Special Collections Libraries, 
Corey Schmidt (corey.schm...@uga.edu). Thank you for your participation!
