[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Atlas Systems is pleased to announce a new version of the Aeon ArchivesSpace Request Fulfillment Plugin

[Posted on behalf of our registered service provider, Atlas Systems]

Atlas Systems is pleased to announce a new version of the Aeon ArchivesSpace 
Request Fulfillment 
Plugin.

This release includes top container mode which will limit requesting to 
resources and archival objects with top containers. Top container mode directs 
users to a box picker form in Aeon to streamline request submittal directly to 
request processing queues. Finally, this version of the plugin also adds the 
option to block requesting based on local access restrictions type.

Please join Katie Gillespie, Special Collection & Archives Program Manager, and 
Valerie Addonizio, Special Collections and Archives Technical Consultant, on 
June 1 at 2pm Eastern for a demo and Q session about the new plugin features.

the Public User Interface to improve the user experience for staff and

This training assumes a basic understanding of archival workflows and metadata 
formats as well as experience navigating the ArchivesSpace staff user 
interface.  If you plan to attend our community-wide trainings without the 
required background, we encourage you to review the recorded ArchivesSpace 
basics training available on our Getting Started

To learn more about upcoming community-wide trainings or view information about

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Addressing harmful language and materials at the ArchivesSpace Virtual Member Forum

2023-04-07 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace Member Community,

The ArchivesSpace program aims to provide an inclusive, anti-oppressive 
environment where all are treated respectfully regardless of race, nationality, 
ethnicity, gender identity, sexuality, age, ability, belief system, physical 
appearance, politics, educational attainment or technical fluency.  Based on 
community feedback, we recognize that the ArchivesSpace Virtual Member Forum 
did not always meet that standard. We would like to take this opportunity to 
apologize and to address our course of action following the forum and into the 
future.

We received two forum evaluations expressing concern about harmful language and 
images verbalized and displayed during the session “Contextualization and 
Repair at Rauner Library.”  In accordance with the ArchivesSpace Code of 
Conduct<https://archivesspace.org/archivesspace-code-of-conduct>, ArchivesSpace 
Program Manager Christine Di Bella, Community Engagement Coordinator Jessica 
Crouch and members of the User Advisory Council Member Engagement sub-team 
reviewed these comments and have agreed to the following course of action:


  *   Copies of the presentation recording and slides will not be made 
available online.
  *   Going forward ArchivesSpace will require all presenters to fully redact 
harmful language and not use harmful images in their presentations, not just 
provide content warnings, regardless of the context. This applies to both 
written content and verbal communication during presentations and the 
associated Q

We apologize for the harm this presentation caused.  We believe the 
ArchivesSpace community and application can only be made better by providing a 
welcoming and safe community experience for all of our members.  We dropped the 
ball during the forum.  We appreciate the opportunity to correct this error and 
move towards an even stronger and more inclusive community experience in the 
future.

Jessica

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Training Reminder: ArchivesSpace Application Overview and Basic Record Creation (intended for audiences outside the contiguous U.S.)

2023-02-13 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace users,



While our community-wide 
trainings<https://archivesspace.org/using-archivesspace/trainings> provide 
virtual learning opportunities on a variety of topics, we recognize attending 
the live version of these trainings is difficult for users outside the time 
zones represented in North America.  To better facilitate access to training 
for some other parts of our community, we will be offering a free training next 
week on February 21, 2023, from 1:00pm-4pm Australian Eastern Daylight Time 
(AEDT<https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=ArchivesSpace+Application+Overview+and+Basic+Record+Creation+Training=20230220T21=179=3>).



This training will provide an overview of the ArchivesSpace application and 
basic record creation.  During this training, trainers from the ArchivesSpace 
Trainers Corps will cover some of the most frequently used areas of the 
ArchivesSpace application and will provide adequate time for Q  A full 
agenda will be provided to attendees in advance of the training.  We hope the 
feedback we receive from this training will inform future ArchivesSpace 
training opportunities in a variety of time zones.

Registration: https://lyrasis.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_uwnVJgYbRaaHbxiBWzVOSA


*Please note this training occurs in the evening, Monday, February 20th for 
some time zones.



Anyone using ArchivesSpace may register for this training.  This training will 
be recorded.  The recording will be made available via the ArchivesSpace 
website and YouTube channel.  You do not need to register for the training to 
have access to the recordings. We understand this training is outside regular 
business hours for users in the United States.  Registration is limited. We ask 
that users within the contiguous U.S. consider refraining from registering for 
this training in order to allow others the opportunity to attend.


While this training does not assume any prior experience with ArchivesSpace, 
attendees are expected to have an understanding of archival workflows and 
terminology.  Due to the large number of attendees, trainers will not be able 
to troubleshoot individual implementations of ArchivesSpace or provide 
additional archival instruction beyond the use of ArchivesSpace.

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Call for speakers for the ArchivesSpace Virtual Member Forum, April 4-5, 2023

2023-02-07 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace Users,



Mark your calendars for this year's Virtual Member Forum!



Taking place April 4-5, 2023, our Virtual Member Forum will be a two-day event 
spanning a variety of time zones and ArchivesSpace experience levels. A 
schedule and information about how to register for the event will be released 
closer to the forum.



We are now accepting session proposals via our online form at 
https://forms.gle/jpSyx7VWZQ91HfTP8. We will be reviewing proposals on a 
rolling basis, so we encourage you to get your proposals in early.  Submissions 
will be closed on March 24, 2023, with final notification by March 27, 2023.


The ArchivesSpace program team is particularly interested in presentations or 
facilitated discussions related to the following topics:



  *   Demonstrations of workflows using different modules or features of the 
application
  *   Managing digital objects in ArchivesSpace
  *   Developing local training and documentation
  *   Workflows and tips for editing existing records in ArchivesSpace or other 
data cleanup projects
  *   Examples of anti-racism, anti-colonialism and redescription work being 
executed in ArchivesSpace
  *   Demonstrations of plugins or tools you’ve developed to make your work in 
ArchivesSpace easier



The forum will include a mix of opportunities to share and learn from each 
other about many different aspects of ArchivesSpace and all presenter 
submissions are welcome. We anticipate recording many parts of the forum, but 
for it to be a success we will also need as many live participants as possible. 
We encourage you to dip in and out of the live program as much as you can. You 
will no doubt “meet” a different set of colleagues each time.


This year's Virtual Member Forum is the successor to the Online Forums we held 
in previous years. To better support our member community and recognize their 
direct contributions to the development and sustainability of the ArchivesSpace 
application, registration for this year's event is open to users from 
ArchivesSpace member organizations only.


Going forward, we plan to make the Virtual Member Forum an online complement to 
our in-person Annual Member Forum, one of the many 
benefits of ArchivesSpace 
membership. This change will give even more members than before the opportunity 
to participate in a forum, no matter where they live or their capacity for 
attending events in person in a given year. If you are interested in learning 
more about ArchivesSpace membership for your organization, feel free to email 
us at archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org.


Thank you for considering submitting a proposal. We’re looking forward to a 
great event, with your help!

Dear ArchivesSpace users,



Registration is now open for our Spring community-wide trainings. To learn more 
about upcoming community-wide trainings or view information about past 
trainings, visit https://archivesspace.org/using-archivesspace/trainings.


The first training offered this year will be on using Agents, Subjects and 
Classifications in ArchivesSpace.  This training will be offered on March 29, 
2023, from 1pm-4pm ET/10am-1pm PT.  If you are interested in attending this 
training, you can register at https://www.lyrasis.org/ASpaceEventMarch.


In this training, users will learn how to create, edit, and manage agent and 
subject records, link agent and subject records to material description 
records, and create and manage classifications in ArchivesSpace.


The second training offered this year will be on using the ArchivesSpace Public 
User Interface (PUI).  This training will be offered on April 19, 2023, from 
1pm-4pm ET/10am-1pm PT.  If you are interested in attending this training, you 
can register at https://www.lyrasis.org/ASpaceEventApril.


In this training, users will learn how to navigate the ArchivesSpace Public 
User Interface, use subject and agent records to link related material, how to 
use classification to group related material and how to make customizations to 
the Public User Interface to improve the user experience for staff and 
researchers.



Both trainings assume a basic understanding of archival workflows and metadata 
formats as well as experience navigating the ArchivesSpace staff user 
interface.  If you plan to attend our community-wide trainings without the 
required background, we encourage you to review the recorded ArchivesSpace 
basics training available on our Getting Started 
webpage.



These trainings are open to anyone using or interested in ArchivesSpace but 
ArchivesSpace members are eligible for a discount.  If you qualify for the 
member discount, you will need to reach out to 
archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org to receive 
a member promo code before registering.



If you have any questions, please email 
archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org.

2023-01-19 Thread Jessica Crouch
Hi Aimee and other members of the ArchivesSpace user group listserv,

I’m glad you are interested in ArchivesSpace training opportunities.  I do want 
to point out that this training is being offered on February 21st from 
1:00pm-4:00pm Australian Eastern Daylight Time (find your local 
time<https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=ArchivesSpace+Application+Overview+and+Basic+Record+Creation+Training=20230220T21=179=3>).
  This means this training will be offered outside regular business hours on 
the night of February 20th for those of us in the continental United States.

This training was developed to better facilitate access to training for our 
community members who live outside the time zones we typically offer trainings. 
 Since space is limited, we ask that users in the continental US consider 
refraining from registering for this training to allow other members of our 
community to attend.  If you do plan to register, we ask that you only register 
if you intend to participate in the training live.

As we mentioned in the announcement, this training will be recorded.  The 
recording will be made available via the ArchivesSpace website and YouTube 
channel.  You do not need to register for the training to have access to the 
recordings.

I hope that information helps.  If anyone has additional questions, please feel 
free to reach out at 
archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org<mailto:archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org>.

Best,
Jessica

In this webinar, Jane Anderson of New York University and Co-Director of Local

an initiative offering digital strategies for Indigenous communities, 
institutions, and researchers through the TK (Traditional Knowledge) & BC

Indigenous involvement in data governance through the integration of Indigenous 
values into data systems.

After, ArchivesSpace community member Joshua Shaw will demonstrate the Local 
Contexts integration 
plugin he developed 
that integrates Local Contexts Labels and Notices with ArchivesSpace. Feedback 
from the ArchivesSpace community would be appreciated to ensure that the plugin 
works for a variety of institutions. Feature requests, bug reports, or 
suggestions for changes are encouraged. Exports (EAD, EAD3, and MARCXML) are of 
special interest and suggestions for improvement would be very welcome.

Dr. Jane Anderson is an Associate Professor at New York University in 
Lenapehoking (New York) and Global Fellow in the Engelberg Center for 
Innovation Law and Policy in the Law School at NYU. Jane has a Ph.D. in Law 
from the Law School at University of New South Wales in Australia. Their work 
is focused on intellectual and cultural property law, Indigenous rights, and 
the protection of Indigenous/traditional knowledge, cultural heritage, and data.

other digital collection software. He has been working with ArchivesSpace since

working on ArchivesSpace plugins focused on issues related to reparative 
description.

This webinar is being held to further the ArchivesSpace anti-racism and 
inclusion initiatives identified by the community to support and amplify those 
that document and empower individuals, organizations and communities that work 
to make the world a more inclusive place. To learn more, visit our wiki at

In this discussion facilitated by members of the ArchivesSpace program team, 
members will be able to share their own use cases and goals for the digital 
objects module.  Members are encouraged to review current community-submitted 
feature requests for the digital objects module on the ArchivesSpace 
JIRA prior to the 
discussion.  If you are unable to locate a current feature request that 
represents your use case, you are encouraged to submit a feature 
request
 following these instructions.

The ArchivesSpace team is pleased to share the ArchivesSpace annual report

The report highlights some major themes of our activities, both in the last 
year and always. Thanks for all you’ve done and do to sustain and move the 
application and the community forward.


We encourage you to share this annual report with others at your institutions

your institutions.

Andrew Morrison, Corey Schmidt, Greg Wiedeman, Jacob Shelby, James Bullen,

Thanks as always for your support. If you have questions or need any assistance 
in upgrading, please let us know.



Welcome ArchivesSpace’s new Front-End Developer, Brian Zelip


ArchivesSpace is excited to announce that Brian Zelip will be joining 
ArchivesSpace as the Front-End Developer.



Brian has been working with ArchivesSpace as a part-time contractor since 
January 2020 and has contributed a number of pull requests to improve the staff 
and public interfaces, particularly as it relates to javascript. As a librarian 
rooted in cultural heritage work and committed to open source, Brian has shown 
himself to be a user-oriented developer and we are excited to have him join the 
ArchivesSpace team full time.



Brian’s previous positions include Assistant Director and Emerging Technologies 
Librarian at the University of Maryland Health Sciences and Human Services 
Library.



This is a new position approved by our governance board designed to help

ArchivesSpace Member Match Mixer
[posted on behalf of the Member Engagement sub-team]

We hope all Member Match participants have had a chance to engage with your 
match/es, and have planned your first “meeting” so that you can begin to 
determine when and how you’d like to stay in touch over the course of this 
Member Match year. The modes of interaction and frequency are entirely up to 
you as matches, so have fun and don’t be afraid to dive right in!

The first Member Match event of the year will be a virtual mixer on September 
8th from 1:00pm-2:00pm ET/10:00am-1:00pm PT.

Title: Member Match Mixer - Sharing Tips & Tricks!
Date: Thursday, September 8th
Time: 1:00pm-2:00pm ET/10:00am-1:00pm PT

For our quarterly Member Match events, we’ll focus on community interaction 
among all Member Match participants, but there is no reason why you can’t use 
these topics to spur further discussion with your match/es.

We’re going to kick things off at this Mixer with an informal discussion of 
some of your favorite tips and tricks to use with ArchivesSpace. Please come 
prepared with your top 1-3 favorite tips/tricks – these can relate to any 
module in ArchivesSpace and/or related tools and technologies that you think 
others should know about.

To register for this upcoming Member Match Mixer, review the post sent to the 
Member Match listserv.

If you have any questions or concerns – especially if you’ve had trouble 
connecting with any of your match/es – please don’t hesitate to reach out to 
the Member Engagement Sub-team at 
archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org.

We hope to see you at the Mixer!

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Deadline extended - Submit a session proposal for the ArchivesSpace in-person annual meeting, August 24, 2022

2022-08-08 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace members,


We are thrilled to be holding a portion of our 8th Annual ArchivesSpace Member 
Forum in-person at the Sheraton Hotel Boston on August 24, 2022 and 
registration is now 
open<https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ADC/pages/3128066258/ArchivesSpace+Member+Forum+2022>
 for both in-person and virtual elements of the forum.


However, we currently do not have a sufficient number of presentations to move 
forward with developing the schedule for the in-person meeting.  We plan to 
hold the meeting in some form no matter what but the success of our forums is 
dependent on the participation of members and their willingness to share their 
knowledge and experience with others in the community. We’ve been fortunate to 
have a core of very active community members do this in past years, but with 
fewer people attending this year at this point we need others to step up.


To that end, everyone attending the in-person meeting is strongly encouraged to 
consider submitting a proposal. Brief 15-20 minute sessions showing off your 
organization’s implementation of ArchivesSpace, a tool or plug-in you’ve 
developed, a project your organization has undertaken or a new workflow you’ve 
developed are highly encouraged.

There is a short Google form for proposals available at 
https://forms.gle/V7gtps3E9vnvdLXX7. Proposals will be reviewed on a rolling 
basis and will continue to be accepted until August 12th.
Please feel free to contact ArchivesSpace Community Engagement Coordinator 
Jessica Crouch (jessica.cro...@lyrasis.org) with questions. We look forward to 
seeing you in-person or virtually.

Registration is now 
open<https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ADC/pages/3128066258/ArchivesSpace+Member+Forum+2022>
 for the 8th Annual ArchivesSpace Member Forum!

Just as in previous years, this will be a free opportunity for staff from 
ArchivesSpace member institutions to meet and share information with each other 
and the program team about all things ArchivesSpace.

We will be holding a half-day, in-person member meeting on August 24, 2022, in 
the Commonwealth Room on the third floor of the Sheraton Boston Hotel.  In 
addition to this in-person meeting, we will also hold two virtual workshops on 
August 30-31, 2022.

These free events are a chance for ArchivesSpace members to come together to 
highlight the work they are doing in ArchivesSpace, show off new plugins or 
tools they’ve developed, and attend instructional sessions and discussions on a 
variety of topics. As with our previous Annual Member Forums, it is being held 
in conjunction with the Society of American Archivists annual meeting, but it 
is not part of SAA and does not require registration for the SAA Annual Meeting.

In-person meeting details:

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Registration is still available for Creating and Modifying Resource Records in ArchivesSpace training on July 21

2022-07-14 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace users,


Registration is still available for the first training in our new 
community-wide training program on July 21, 2022, from 1pm-4pm ET/10am-1pm PT.  
Having learned a number of lessons from our year-long 
pilot,
 ArchivesSpace will begin offering standalone, single session trainings focused 
on individual modules of the ArchivesSpace application.


Based on the feedback from attendees from our year-long pilot, we will be 
implementing the following:


  *   Class size will be capped at 50 participants.
  *   Each attendee will be provided a workbook and example exercise data to 
continue learning after the training.
  *   Training will be offered for a fee of $50/training for ArchivesSpace 
members and $150/training for non-members.
  *   Training will be recorded.  Attendees will have access to the recording 
immediately following the training.  Others will be able to access the 
recording from our YouTube channel at a later date.

The first training will be on creating and editing resource records in the 
ArchivesSpace application.  This training will be offered July 21, 2022, from 
1pm-4pm ET/11am-1pm PT.


At the end of this session, participants will:


  *   Know how to create, edit and delete resource records and their component 
records in ArchivesSpace
  *   Understand how to create sub-records
  *   Gain knowledge of how to spawn, merge, suppress, and link resource 
records to other record types in ArchivesSpace
  *   Become familiar with import and export options for resource records in 
ArchivesSpace
  *   Better understand how to modify user preferences, apply default values to 
resource records and other time saving tips


This training assumes a basic understanding of archival workflows and 
experience navigating the staff user interface.  If you plan to attend this 
workshop without the required background, we encourage you to review the 
recorded ArchivesSpace basics 
training 
available on our Getting Started webpage.


If you are interested in attending this training, you can register at 
https://www.lyrasis.org/ASpaceEvent.


These virtual trainings will be open to anyone using or interested in 
ArchivesSpace.  If you qualify for the member discount, you will need to reach 
out to archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org to 
receive a member promo code before registering.


Thank you to everyone who participated in our training pilot last year and 
submitted valuable feedback.  We are especially grateful to the members of the 
ArchivesSpace Trainers Corps for leading this pilot.

If you have any questions, please email 
archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org.

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Submit a session proposal for the ArchivesSpace in-person annual meeting, August 24, 2022

2022-07-11 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace members,


We are thrilled to be holding a portion of our 8th Annual ArchivesSpace Member 
Forum in-person at the Sheraton Hotel Boston on August 24, 2022.


Registration is now 
open<https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ADC/pages/3128066258/ArchivesSpace+Member+Forum+2022>
 for both in-person and virtual elements of the forum though the schedule for 
the in-person, half-day meeting is still being developed.


Our forums are an opportunity for staff from ArchivesSpace member institutions 
to meet and share information with each other and the program team about all 
things ArchivesSpace.  The success of our forums is dependent on the 
participation of members and their willingness to share their knowledge and 
experience with others in the community.


To that end, everyone attending the in-person meeting is strongly encouraged to 
consider submitting a proposal. Brief 15-20 minute sessions showing off your 
organization’s implementation of ArchivesSpace, a tool or plug-in you’ve 
developed, a project your organization has undertaken or a new workflow you’ve 
developed are highly encouraged.

There is a short Google form for proposals available at 
https://forms.gle/V7gtps3E9vnvdLXX7. Proposals will be reviewed on a rolling 
basis. The last day that proposals will be accepted is August 8, 2022, and all 
notifications will be made by August 10, 2022.

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Webinar Reminder: Using ArchivesSpace for Reparative Description

2022-06-21 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace users,
There is still time to register for next week’s 90-minute learning opportunity 
on June 28, 2022, at 2:00pm ET/11:00am PT highlighting the reparative 
description work ArchivesSpace community members have begun at their 
organizations.  Ample time for discussion will follow.
Date: June 28, 2022
Time: 2:00pm – 3:30pm ET (11:00am – 12:30pm PT)
Where: Zoom
Registration: https://lyrasis.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_4G7ekJH4T1S1GxCiv6VLtQ
This webinar will be recorded and made available on the ArchivesSpace YouTube 
channel.
Webinar description:
In this webinar, ArchivesSpace community members will describe the ways they 
have incorporated reparative description work into their overall archival 
workflow and missions. Each presenter will highlight a different method for 
approaching this work and all ArchivesSpace and archival experience levels are 
represented.  A discussion will follow the presentations.  The presenters and 
the topics they will discuss are as follows:
Aaisha Haykal is the Manager of Archival Services at the College of 
Charleston's Avery Research Center for African American History and Culture. 
Haykal is responsible for collection development, research services, 
instruction, and administrative duties. In this presentation, she will be 
speaking about the College of Charleston's archival repositories’ efforts with 
beginning reparative description for archival collections and its connection to 
the College's work in understanding its history and legacy of slavery.
Kate Dietrick is the Archivist for the Upper Midwest Jewish Archives at the 
University of Minnesota, a position she has held since 2013. Prior to this 
position she lived in New York and worked as a project archivist with the 
Whitney Museum of American Art and with the Kress Foundation. Lara 
Friedman-Shedlov is the Digital Records Archivist for the Archives and Special 
Collections (ASC) Department at the University of Minnesota Libraries, and 
formerly Description and Access Archivist for the Kautz Family YMCA Archives at 
the University of Minnesota. In this session, Kate and Lara will discuss 
efforts in their organization to make small but positive steps to make progress 
on reparative work in ArchivesSpace. Lacking the resources to attempt a 
comprehensive project at this time, their approach so far has focused on 
creating guidance and tools to support and empower staff in making incremental 
changes.
Lexy deGraffenreid (she/her) is the Head of Collection Services at Penn State’s 
Eberly Family Special Collections Library (SCL) where she oversees all 
accessioning, processing, and collections maintenance work. She has been 
working on reparative description projects since Summer 2019 and has been 
working collaboratively to build more inclusive arrangement and description 
workflows in both SCL and as part of a Strategic Plan Action Team. Lexy will 
discuss conducting a high-level audit of SCL’s over 2,200 finding aids and how 
the results of that audit informed their reparative description projects. She 
will further discuss how this audit led to the development of their Inclusive 
Description Working Group, Inclusive Description Style Guide, and Inclusive 
Description Resource Guide. She will discuss the challenges they encountered in 
undertaking reparative description work, including challenges of not imposing 
identities onto LGBTQIA+ creators, contextualizing racist and violent 
materials, and adopting bilingual description in ArchivesSpace.
Joshua Shaw is a web and application developer at Dartmouth Library and has 
been working with ArchivesSpace since 2014. He's currently part of the 
ArchivesSpace cross-council testing team and a member of the core committers 
group. In his session, Joshua will discuss the plugin he 
developed that adds 
a new sub record in ArchivesSpace that allows staff to add content warnings and 
clarifying descriptions to Accessions, Resources, Archival Objects, and Digital 
Objects.  This plugin is currently in “beta” phase and is still in development. 
 Members of the community are encouraged to test the plugin and provide 
feedback.
This webinar is being held to further the ArchivesSpace anti-racism and 
inclusion initiatives identified by the community to support and amplify those 
that document and empower individuals, organizations and communities that work 
to make the world a more inclusive place.  To learn more, visit our wiki at

on hiatus. We may revive the breaks in some form in the future, but until then 
we look forward to seeing you tomorrow.  Thanks to everyone who has joined us 
at our standing Friday break calls.  It’s been great reconnecting with so many 
familiar faces and getting to know so many new faces as well.


We will host the final Break with ArchivesSpace this Friday (May 27th) via zoom 
at 12pm ET. There is no agenda or presentation developed for this call. We just 
want to provide an opportunity to connect, chat and recharge. Use this as a 
time to get help or talk about ArchivesSpace (or anything else) in an informal 
setting or just have a beverage with other ArchivesSpace users during this 
stressful time.


Register to join at 
https://lyrasis.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcldOGuqjotE9cNSaa6j45issVCKrEQKQYv


We seek to provide a welcoming, fun, and safe community experience for

2022-05-20 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace Users,

The deadline to apply to participate in the ArchivesSpace Member Match program 
is today, Friday, May 20th.

The Member Match program is an initiative to engage the ArchivesSpace 
membership community, created and organized by the Member Engagement sub-team 
of the ArchivesSpace User Advisory Council, with support from the ArchivesSpace 
Community Engagement Coordinator. The program is intended to be a resource and 
venue for peer-to-peer support between ArchivesSpace members. For one, 
year-long term, participants will be matched with a member with whom they can 
receive and offer professional insight, advice, and camaraderie. The program 
will also offer participants the opportunity to engage in exclusive events and 
enlightening discussions about ArchivesSpace and its active user community.

Thanks to valuable feedback from the first cohort of Member Match Participants, 
we’ve implemented the following updates to the program:


  *   Monthly Listserv Discussion Topics
 *   Each month, a member of the Member Engagement sub-team will reach out 
to the Member Match listserv to spur discussion and encourage continued 
engagement between matches.
  *   Quarterly Member Match Meet-Ups
 *   These will be opportunities for large group socializing as well as the 
potential for dedicated time to spend with matches in breakout rooms.
  *   Option to participate in small group matches of 3 people
Eligibility
Any individual affiliated with an ArchivesSpace member organization is eligible 
to participate in the ArchivesSpace Member Match program and there is no limit 
to the number of individuals from a member organization that may participate.

If you are unsure of your organization’s ArchivesSpace membership status, visit 
https://archivesspace.org/community/whos-using-archivesspace or email 
archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org<mailto:archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org>.

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Upcoming Webinar: Using ArchivesSpace to create EAC-CPF records (90 minutes)

2022-05-17 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace users,

There is still time to register for next week’s webinar on using ArchivesSpace 
to create EAC-CPF records.  The next ArchivesSpace webinar will be a 90-minute 
learning opportunity on May 24th at 2:00pm ET/11:00am PT led by Regine 
Heberlein, Library IT Data Analyst at Princeton University, and Christine Di 
Bella, ArchivesSpace Program Manager, demonstrating how to create valid EAC-CPF 
records using ArchivesSpace and offering some tips and tricks for making the 
process easier within your repository.

Originally scheduled for February 9th, this 90 minute learning opportunity has 
been postponed to May 24, 2022, at 2:00pm ET/11:00am PT.  If you’ve already 
registered for this webinar, your registration has been transferred to this new 
date.  If you need to cancel your registration, you can do so using the 
connection information provided via Zoom.

Date: May 24, 2022
Time: 2:00pm – 3:30pm ET (11:00am – 12:30pm PT)
Where: Zoom
Registration:  
https://lyrasis.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_e777kyjtQ6qjBMWeiiTWmg

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

Webinar description:
The recent expansion of the agents module in ArchivesSpace greatly expanded the 
application’s support for the metadata standard Encoded Archival Context – 
Corporate Bodies, Persons, and Families (EAC-CPF) and the potential for 
exchanging these records with other systems, including Social Networks and 
Archival Context (SNAC). Taking full advantage of this potential requires some 
work on the record creator’s part as ArchivesSpace’s requirements for creating 
agent records remain minimal.

This learning opportunity will demonstrate how to create valid EAC-CPF records 
using ArchivesSpace and offer some tips and tricks for making the process 
easier within your repository.
An open discussion and Q will follow.

This learning opportunity introduces EAC-CPF in the context of ArchivesSpace 
but is not intended to be a full overview of the standard. Resources for 
learning more about EAC-CPF include:

  *   Encoded Archival Standards: A Primer: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYWQeBRnhz0
  *   EAC-CPF Community and Support page: 
https://eac.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/community-and-mailinglist/
  *   EAC-CPF Tag Library: 
https://eac.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/schemata-and-tag-library/

NOTE: This learning opportunity assumes basic knowledge of ArchivesSpace, 
including an understanding of agent records. If you do not have this, we 
recommend watching the videos of the Basics workshop series, available on 
YouTube at 
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3cxupmXL7WiHyMc0uFmsCEIVOQmrI7FL. We 
will not be able to answer general questions about ArchivesSpace or specific 
questions about individual ArchivesSpace implementations during this session.

Who should attend:
Anyone interested in using ArchivesSpace to create valid EAC-CPF records.

Please email 
archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org if you have 
any questions.

Best,
Jessica

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Take a Break with ArchivesSpace on Friday

2022-04-14 Thread Jessica Crouch
ArchivesSpace users,



Whether you’ve continued to work from home, have returned to the office, or 
find yourself stuck somewhere in the middle, we could all use a break.  In that 
spirit, ArchivesSpace will be reinstating our popular casual zoom open calls on 
Fridays. With a welcoming and robust member community all over the world, 
ArchivesSpace can offer camaraderie and relaxation, no matter the current state 
of the world.


Each Friday we will have casual open calls via zoom at 12pm ET. We won’t be 
developing agendas or presentations for these calls. We just want to provide an 
opportunity to connect, chat and recharge. Use this as a time to get help or 
talk about ArchivesSpace (or anything else) in an informal setting or just have 
a beverage with other ArchivesSpace users during this stressful time.


Whether you can attend once or plan to be there every Friday, these calls are 
open to everyone but registration is required to join.


Register to join any open call at 
https://lyrasis.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcldOGuqjotE9cNSaa6j45issVCKrEQKQYv


We seek to provide a welcoming, fun, and safe community experience for 
everyone. The full text of the code of conduct is available at 
https://archivesspace.org/archivesspace-code-of-conduct.


Please email

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Apply now for the second cohort of the ArchivesSpace Member Match program

2022-03-28 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace Users,

The ArchivesSpace Member Engagement sub-team is pleased to accept applications 
for the second cohort of the ArchivesSpace Member Match program.

The Member Match program is an initiative to engage the ArchivesSpace 
membership community, created and organized by the Member Engagement sub-team 
of the ArchivesSpace User Advisory Council, with support from the ArchivesSpace 
Community Engagement Coordinator. The program is intended to be a resource and 
venue for peer-to-peer support between ArchivesSpace members. For one, 
year-long term, participants will be matched with a member with whom they can 
receive and offer professional insight, advice, and camaraderie. The program 
will also offer participants the opportunity to engage in exclusive events and 
enlightening discussions about ArchivesSpace and its active user community.

Thanks to valuable feedback from the first cohort of Member Match Participants, 
we’ve implemented the following updates to the program:


  *   Monthly Listserv Discussion Topics
 *   Each month, a member of the Member Engagement sub-team will reach out 
to the Member Match listserv to spur discussion and encourage continued 
engagement between matches.
  *   Quarterly Member Match Meet-Ups
 *   These will be opportunities for large group socializing as well as the 
potential for dedicated time to spend with matches in breakout rooms.
  *   Option to participate in small group matches of 3 people

Eligibility
Any individual affiliated with an ArchivesSpace member organization is eligible 
to participate in the ArchivesSpace Member Match program and there is no limit 
to the number of individuals from a member organization that may participate.

If you are unsure of your organization’s ArchivesSpace membership status, visit 
https://archivesspace.org/community/whos-using-archivesspace or email 
archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org<mailto:archivesspaceh...@lyrasis.org>.

To Apply
There is a short application to complete at 
https://airtable.com/shrDL4wQhc3gkBAlH
Applications should be submitted by April 29th, 2022. Applicants will be 
notified of their matches no later than June 30th.

Hi Bri,

On resource records, we use user-defined strings to store OCLC numbers, and 
have a little custom mapping that outputs these to the MARC 035 field.  We also 
have a user-defined controlled vocabulary list that we use to assign records to 
a collecting area (e.g. Literature, US History) that correspond to a curatorial 
area of strength.

BTW I love this thread - it's great to see how others are using these fields.

Dear ArchivesSpace users,



Whether you’ve continued to work from home, have returned to the office, or 
find yourself stuck somewhere in the middle, we could all use a break.  In that 
spirit, ArchivesSpace will be reinstating our popular casual zoom open calls on 
Fridays. With a welcoming and robust member community all over the world, 
ArchivesSpace can offer camaraderie and relaxation, no matter the current state 
of the world.


Beginning Friday, March 4th, we will have casual open calls via zoom at 12pm ET 
each Friday. We won’t be developing agendas or presentations for these calls. 
We just want to provide an opportunity to connect, chat and recharge. Use this 
as a time to get help or talk about ArchivesSpace (or anything else) in an 
informal setting or just have a beverage with other ArchivesSpace users during 
this stressful time.


Whether you can attend once or plan to be there every Friday, these calls are 
open to everyone but registration is required to join.


Register to join any open call at

Dear ArchivesSpace Users,



As a reminder, the third ArchivesSpace Trainers Corps “Office Hour” will be 
this Friday, October 8th at 2pm ET/11am PT. In these office hours, members of 
the ArchivesSpace Trainers Corps will demo a task or tool frequently used by 
ArchivesSpace users and take questions related to the demo and topic.


For this open call, the Trainers Corps will briefly explain how to import 
archival objects via Excel or CSV using the “Load via Spreadsheet” feature, 
which became available in ArchivesSpace beginning with v2.8.0.  (This feature 
was formerly known as the Harvard import 
plugin; those using 
ArchivesSpace v2.7 or earlier can still access it via the plugin.)  Following 
the presentation, you will have the opportunity to ask questions about the 
topic, followed by a general Q about migration tools and data 
maps.

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] ArchivesSpace Update - September 2021

2021-09-30 Thread Jessica Crouch

ArchivesSpace Update – September 2021



Development


ArchivesSpace v3.1 is currently available. ArchivesSpace is announcing the 
availability of v3.1.0. You can download it at 
https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/.



This release includes a number of accessibility improvements, particularly to 
the public interface. Many of these were identified in an accessibility audit 
conducted by Deque across the open source applications that make their homes at 
LYRASIS, which include DSpace, CollectionSpace, and ArchivesSpace. The release 
also includes specific bug fixes and small feature improvements prioritized by 
the Development Prioritization sub-team. There are also additional performance, 
backend and staff interface improvements from Hudson Molonglo developers James 
Bullen, Mark Triggs, and Payten Giles that derived from work HM did for 
Queensland State Archives as part of a larger project.


Thanks to all of our community members who contributed code for this release: 
Alex Duryee, Andrew Morrison, Dave Mayo, James Bullen, Mark Triggs, Nick 
Butler, Payten Giles, Sam Hatfield, and Sean Anderson. As always, program team 
members Lora Woodford, Brian Hoffman, and Mark Cooper, as well as contractors 
Manny Rodriguez and Brian Zelip, wrote and/or reviewed substantial code for the 
release. Thanks also to our community groups, especially the Testing sub-team, 
for their efforts.



Information on upgrading to a new version of ArchivesSpace is available at 
https://archivesspace.github.io/tech-docs/administration/upgrading.html. If you 
have any difficulties, please let us know.



This is the spring/summer 2021 release from the 
roadmap.
 Items that were projected for this release that did not make it in have been 
shifted to future releases.



Please get in touch if you have any questions. Thanks as always for your 
feedback and support.



Upcoming Change to the Way ArchivesSpace is Deployed


We wanted to alert you to an upcoming change in the way the ArchivesSpace 
application is deployed. This change will not be noticeable to end users of the 
application, but it will affect those that install and maintain it for users.



Background



ArchivesSpace uses Solr for its search platform. 
Since its original release in 2013, ArchivesSpace has used a version of Solr 
that can be embedded into the application so that Solr is installed and 
configured by default when ArchivesSpace is installed. Though most 
ArchivesSpace deployments opt for this embedded version of Solr, some sites 
choose to use an external deployment of Solr and maintain it separately from 
ArchivesSpace.



In its own upgrades over the years, Solr made some changes so that it can no 
longer be embedded. While we have stayed on the highest embeddable version of 
Solr (v4.10.4) for years, this version is now old and unsupported by its 
maintainers, and it is no longer sustainable for us to use it in new releases. 
In order to maintain and improve this critical piece of ArchivesSpace 
infrastructure, we need to upgrade Solr. In the process we will need to make 
the transition to using external Solr only.



What does this mean for me?



Once we make this change, if you are responsible for deploying ArchivesSpace at 
your institution, you will need to download and install Solr and use 
ArchivesSpace’s supplied Solr configuration to create the Solr index. This will 
be in addition to managing your own MySQL database. Solr will no longer be 
distributed with ArchivesSpace and ArchivesSpace will no longer work 
out-of-the-box without an external Solr deployment. ArchivesSpace will need to 
be fully re-indexed when this transition occurs.

If you are not the person responsible for deploying ArchivesSpace at your 
institution, this change will not directly affect you, though it will be 
important to make sure the person responsible for deploying your ArchivesSpace 
is aware of the change.

Will you have strict requirements for how to deploy Solr?

Like with MySQL, the ArchivesSpace team does not intend to be opinionated about 
how Solr is deployed externally. System administrators will be able to use 
whatever method they prefer to install Solr. For those who require more 
guidance, however, we will have instructions for using a standalone Solr 
installation along with specific ArchivesSpace Solr configuration files. These 
will be in addition to the standard documentation provided by Solr 
(https://solr.apache.org/guide/8_9/installing-solr.html).

When will this happen?

We expect to make the transition to external Solr with the release on the 
roadmap
 that is planned for December 2021. Even so, older versions of ArchivesSpace 
will continue to work with the

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] ArchivesSpace Update - August 2021

2021-08-31 Thread Jessica Crouch

[cid:image001.jpg@01D79E74.8E8959C0]


ArchivesSpace Update – August 2021



Development


ArchivesSpace v3.0.2 is currently available at 
https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v3.0.2. Version 
3.0.2 is the direct result of community feedback about the migration of date 
sub-records attached to agents. The updated migration will create an equal 
number of new structured date sub-records from the original date sub-records 
and do some parsing of date expressions in range dates into begin and end date 
expressions. This migration will be skipped if you previously upgraded to 3.0.0 
or 3.0.1.


Please note that the timing of this smaller release was intended to meet the 
needs of institutions that needed to complete an upgrade before the end of the 
summer. If you do not have that kind of time pressure, you should wait for the 
3.1.0 version, which we expect to put out very soon. That will be a more 
typical release with the usual complement of bug fixes, feature enhancements, 
and infrastructure improvements.

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.

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

2021-08-25 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace users,

There is still time to register for next week’s ArchivesSpace webinar on 
implementing ArchivesSpace in a remote work environment. This webinar was 
originally scheduled for July 7, 2021, but has been rescheduled to September 1, 
2021. 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: September 1, 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

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] ArchivesSpace Update - July 2021

2021-07-30 Thread Jessica Crouch



[cid:image001.jpg@01D78564.68BCB3A0]


ArchivesSpace Update – July 2021



Development


A release candidate for ArchivesSpace v3.0.2 is currently available at 
https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v3.0.2-RC1. We 
expect to put out the production release in early August.


Version 3.0.2 is the direct result of community feedback about the migration of 
date sub-records attached to agents. The updated migration will create an equal 
number of new structured date sub-records from the original date sub-records 
and do some parsing of date expressions in range dates into begin and end date 
expressions. This is the only difference from v3.0.1. If you previously 
upgraded to 3.0.0 or 3.0.1, this upgrade is not necessary for you because the 
migration of your dates already took place. If you have not previously 
upgraded, we recommend going directly to 3.0.2 when it and you are ready. For 
any of these versions, some human-initiated cleanup of date sub-records may be 
required, depending on your local best practices and preferences for recording 
date information.


Registration open - ArchivesSpace 7th Annual Member Forum

Registration is still 
available
 for the 7th Annual ArchivesSpace Member Forum!

Just as in previous years, this will be a free opportunity for staff from 
ArchivesSpace member institutions to meet and share information with each other 
and the program team about all things ArchivesSpace.  While traditionally an 
in-person event, ArchivesSpace will be holding its seventh Annual Member Forum 
virtually.

This free event is a chance for ArchivesSpace members to come together to 
highlight the work they are doing in ArchivesSpace, show off new plugins or 
tools they’ve developed, and attend instructional sessions and discussions on a 
variety of topics. As with our previous Annual Member Forums, it is being held 
in conjunction with the Society of American Archivists annual meeting, but it 
is not part of SAA and does not require registration for the SAA Annual Meeting.

When:



Presentations, breakout discussions, and casual mixers will be held on August 
2-4, 2021, and all individuals from ArchivesSpace member institutions are 
welcome to attend some or all of the sessions on these days.  Times vary by day 
so be sure to review the 
agenda.
  Times are listed in ET but you can use the “find your local time” feature to 
confirm the event date and time for your region.



Where:



All online via Zoom, with opportunities to join via computer or phone.



Who Can Attend:


The ArchivesSpace Member Forum is open to individuals from ArchivesSpace member 
institutions only. To register, you must use an institutional email address 
associated with an ArchivesSpace member institution.  Registrations using 
personal email addresses and addresses associated with non-member institutions 
will not be accepted.  This means that events with limited capacity may fill 
before you are able to correct your registration.

Online registration:



https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ADC/pages/2770599937/ArchivesSpace+Member+Forum+2021


Registrations for each day are separate and you must register individually for 
all days/events you are interested in attending.  Registration information is 
linked above each event on the agenda.

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

2021-06-28 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace users,

There’s still time to register for next week’s 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.



Presenter Information:

Tomaro Taylor is the Head of Special Collections at the University of South 
Florida Libraries Tampa campus. A Certified Archivist, Tomaro has nearly 20 
years of experience implementing policies, procedures, guidelines, and best 
practices in the archival field. She currently serves as President of the 
Academy of Certified Archivists and Co-Manager of the Society of American 
Archivists' Digital Archives Specialist (DAS) Exam.



Amanda Boczar is Special Collections Operations Manager at the University of 
South Florida Libraries Tampa campus. Amanda holds a Ph.D. in History with over 
12 years of experience in higher education, and joined the library in 2019. She 
was responsible for the migration to ArchivesSpace, and supervised student and 
employee training through the process.



Ana Temkina is a student assistant at USF Libraries Tampa campus, Special 
Collections. She received her bachelor's degree in Library and Information

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Webinar Reminder: Making the most of the ArchivesSpace Classifications Module and Library of Congress Subject Headings at the University of Oregon

2021-06-23 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace users,

There’s still time to register for next week’s webinar on making the most of 
the ArchivesSpace classifications module and Library of Congress Subject 
Headings at the University of Oregon. In this webinar, Liliya Benz and Alex 
Bisio of University of Oregon will discuss their initiative to create 
interactive, browsable subject guides for new reference staff and patrons by 
making use of the classifications module in ArchivesSpace.



When: June 30, 2021

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

Where: Zoom
Registration: https://lyrasis.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_9vyoqxiySM-UnKuHCnfexA



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



Webinar description:



In March 2020, processing archivists in Special Collections and University 
Archives (SCUA) at the University of Oregon Libraries began experimenting with 
the Classifications module in ArchivesSpace, seeking a way to create 
interactive, browsable subject guides for new reference staff and patrons. 
Using existing controlled vocabulary in SCUA’s MARC records, processing 
archivists employed data exploration tools in OpenRefine (formerly 
GoogleRefine) to collate collections into subject areas based on Library of 
Congress Classifications. Using OpenRefine and additional subject analysis of 
the collections, processing archivists were able to create comprehensive lists 
of SCUA’s collections by subjects represented. These lists could then be 
uploaded into ArchivesSpace Classifications, giving staff and patrons a tool to 
browse archival collections as they would books on a shelf in the general 
stacks of the university library.



This webinar will explore the MARC-to-Classifications workflow in OpenRefine, 
as well as subject analysis methods used to assign both classifications and 
subclassifications based on numerical collection data. Classification Web, the 
primary tool used for subject analysis and classification, will be juxtaposed 
with other open-access tools in the hope that institutions may replicate 
aspects of the project regardless of subscription-based resources. Highlighted 
resources used for subject analysis will include Library of Congress 
Classification Web (subscription-based), Library of Congress Authorities (open 
access), and the Library of Congress Classification Outline (open access).


A Q will follow.


Presenter Information:


Liliya Benz is the Special Projects Processing Archivist for Special 
Collections and University Archives at the University of Oregon. She received 
her Bachelor of Arts in applied mathematics from the University of Oregon and 
her Master of Library Science with a concentration in archives studies from 
Emporia State University.


Alex Bisio (she/her/hers) is the Lead Processing Archivist in Special 
Collections and University Archives at the University of Oregon Libraries. She 
earned her MSLIS in Archives Management and MA in American History from Simmons 
College, and her BA in American History from Santa Clara University. Before 
joining SCUA at the University of Oregon, she served as the Associate Archivist 
of the Jesuit Archives: Central United States in Saint Louis, Missouri, and the 
Archivist for the Critical Theory Archive at the University of California, 
Irvine.



Who should attend:

Anyone using or interested in using the ArchivesSpace Classifications module.

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] There's still time to volunteer for the next ArchivesSpace annual forum planning team

2021-06-07 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace Members,



We are currently looking for volunteers for the working group to plan our 
seventh annual ArchivesSpace Annual Member 
Forum! Just 
as in previous years, this forum will be a free opportunity for staff from 
ArchivesSpace member institutions to meet and share information with each other 
and the program team about all things ArchivesSpace.  While traditionally an 
in-person event, ArchivesSpace will be holding its seventh Annual Member Forum 
virtually. Although it will be held during the week of the Society of American 
Archivists Annual Meeting as in previous years, the Member Forum is not part of 
SAA and does not require registration for the SAA Annual Meeting.



This free event is a chance for ArchivesSpace members to come together to 
highlight the work they are doing in ArchivesSpace, show off new plugins or 
tools they’ve developed, and attend discussions and trainings on a variety of 
topics. All community members are welcome to volunteer for this working group.  
We will schedule meetings and the forum itself in ways that allow for 
participation across time zones.



If you would like to volunteer, please respond by June 14, 2021.  And if you 
have any questions, contact Jessica at 
jessica.cro...@lyrasis.org. We look forward 
to another great event, with your help!

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Volunteer for the next ArchivesSpace annual forum planning team

2021-05-19 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace Members,



We are currently looking for volunteers for the working group to plan our 
seventh annual ArchivesSpace Annual Member 
Forum! Just 
as in previous years, this forum will be a free opportunity for staff from 
ArchivesSpace member institutions to meet and share information with each other 
and the program team about all things ArchivesSpace.  While traditionally an 
in-person event, ArchivesSpace will be holding its seventh Annual Member Forum 
virtually. Although it will be held during the week of the Society of American 
Archivists Annual Meeting as in previous years, the Member Forum is not part of 
SAA and does not require registration for the SAA Annual Meeting.



This free event is a chance for ArchivesSpace members to come together to 
highlight the work they are doing in ArchivesSpace, show off new plugins or 
tools they’ve developed, and attend discussions and trainings on a variety of 
topics. All community members are welcome to volunteer for this working group.  
We will schedule meetings and the forum itself in ways that allow for 
participation across time zones.



If you would like to volunteer, please respond by June 14, 2021.  And if you 
have any questions, contact Jessica at 
jessica.cro...@lyrasis.org. We look forward 
to another great event, with your help!

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Webinar Reminder: Managing AV Materials in ArchivesSpace

2021-05-12 Thread Jessica Crouch
Dear ArchivesSpace users,


There is still time to register for next week’s webinar on managing AV 
materials in ArchivesSpace. In this webinar, archivists working with 
audiovisual materials and ArchivesSpace will discuss how their shared 
experiences have led them to help and bolster one another’s work in 
ArchivesSpace and in managing AV materials.  They’ll discuss the specific 
projects they have worked on to describe audiovisual materials in ArchivesSpace.



First, Siobhan Hagan of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Moving Image Archive (MARMIA) 
will discuss the work of the Association of Moving Image Archivists’ Regional 
Audiovisual Archives Committee overall and how this work has led to 
collaborative working relationships across the group.


Next, Megan McShea will speak about her work creating the Archives of American 
Art’s Guidelines to Processing Collections with Audiovisual 
Material,
 and then how her perspective changed while working with MARMIA’s massive 
WJZ-TV Collection, where they are using ArchivesSpace to transform their 
inherited Word document videotape inventories into searchable, actionable 
collection description.



Then, Jamie Marie Wagner of University of Colorado Boulder Libraries will speak 
about how she adapted the Guidelines to Processing Collections with Audiovisual 
Material for her institution, plus some specific challenges they have come 
across and tips and tricks for others.


Finally, Hannah Wiatt Davis of Florida State University Libraries will speak 
about the process of migrating to ArchivesSpace, the subsequent cleanup of 
data, and their initial experimentations with the Assessment Module for AV 
materials.



A Q will follow all presentations.
