Hello John: Thank you, this is exactly the approach that I had in mind! I appreciate your reply very much. So far you and one other institution have shared their internally developed CV lists…I’m hoping to find something more standardized, or drawn from a particular standard. Can you tell me

Hi Jodi, We also use a more-or-less locally-developed vocabulary / code list to identify format types. We have a short list of controlled container type values for broad categories of formats (boxes, videocassettes, film-reel, etc.), but more granular format information is communicated using

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Generic top container note?

2021-12-13 Thread Olivia S Solis
Hey all, I was wondering if any other institutions out there had an interest in a field that we have consistently found a need for: a generic note for staff attached to top container records. Reasons have included: - We renamed a box. Because boxes may be part of citations or referenced in

Hi Olivia, I’ve added this kind of information to the locations note field in the top container record, although it often doesn’t seem like the best place for it…more like it’s there so I use it when needed. -Dawne -- Dawne Howard Lucas (she/her/hers) Technical Services Archivist Wilson

Interesting! All of these are in our specification for our custom container management system, which we determined we needed because ArchivesSpace could not accommodate them. It’s nice to see our needs were not unique. Kate From: archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org On

Thanks, Dawne for the response. That looks like the only current option to attach a note specifically to a container, so we have considered just using that field as well. But very often the information is unrelated in any way to the location, so as you say, not the best place for it. Sigh, Olivia

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Query re search functionality - ArchivesSpace 3.1

2021-12-13 Thread Isobel Johnstone
Hi all, We're in the process of upgrading from ArchivesSpace 2.1.2 to ArchivesSpace 3.1.1. We've noticed some differences in search functionality, notably when searching for Resources/Accessions in Top Containers ("Manage Top Containers" -> searching in the "Resource" or "Accession" fields).

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] ASpace API - Query by Location Barcode?

2021-12-13 Thread Joshua D. Shaw
I don't see a specific endpoint for location by barcode, but I think you could hit the generic search endpoint with the following. It's going to show all locations that match that particular string, so not guaranteed that you'll only get one result.

Oh wow, Katie, that is interesting... It is likewise nice to see we are not alone! Are you maintaining that outside of ASpace or are you developing a plugin? Given "system" it would seem it's totally separate. If so, does your system integrate with or is it in communication with ASpace at all?
