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<https://www.aaa.si.edu/documentation/guidelines-for-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&A will follow all presentations.
