Good afternoon,
I work at Tufts University in cooperation with the Digital Collections &
Archives. I am working on various changes to the public user interface. Many
of you helped with questions before, which were a great help!
There's a change we want to make to search results. I suspect

No, we definitely did not lose any data like that. Any data that is already
part of the record is posted back to the system as is, same as when you edit a
record in the staff interface (i.e. if you change a title of a component, you
don’t lose any notes associated with that record once
Hi,
You may remember I previously asked about problems with sorting Top
Containers search results by Indicator. A developer here identified the code
that governs this sort. He describes it thus, lightly edited:
It seemed like they were sorting by length, but they're actually doing
some
Thanks for sending this, Mark! When you did this, did you lose container
profile info? Just curious!

Bo,
Our approach was pretty similar to the approach that you linked to, in that the
whole process is primarily broken down into three main steps:
* Extract and merge the data (in our case, primarily from ASpace and our
ILS, Voyager)
* Compare and prep the data in a spreadsheet format
Hi Mark,
Thank you so much for your feedback -- this is very helpful.
And yes, your observations re: where our barcodes exist are correct:
· ArchivesSpace has all of our granular location info (room, row,
range, shelf data), but no box barcodes
· Our ILS has the box barcodes, b
Hi Don,
We saw this error recently with a resource that shared a top container with
another resource. Since top containers are scoped to repositories, when you
transfer a resource ASpace moves its top containers to the new repository. But
if a top container is linked to another resource in th
Bo,
This sounds like a very tricky / fun project!
Though I have not gone through the exact same scenario, I have gone through a
process of matching containers in finding aids with item records in
corresponding MARC records in an ILS. As with most problems of this type, I
suspect that you will
Laney, et al.
Has there been anything done with this situation? A user here was
attempting to transfer resource from repo 2 to repo 8, but we're getting an
assertion failed error in the log.
{
"error": "ASSERTION FAILED: {SNIP} has a repo_id of 8 but the active
repository is 2"
}
