From christine.dibella at lyrasis.org Fri Jun 4 09:25:01 2021 From: christine.dibella at lyrasis.org (Christine Di Bella) Date: Fri, 4 Jun 2021 13:25:01 +0000 Subject: [Archivesspace_tac] ArchivesSpace 3.0.1 now available Message-ID: Hello ArchivesSpace members, ArchivesSpace 3.0.1 is now available. It corrects an issue with the migration of agent contact notes that was present in 3.0.0. When you choose to upgrade past 2.8.1 you should use this version. We have pulled the download file for 3.0.0 to hopefully avoid confusion as much as possible. Otherwise, everything that was true about 3.0.0 is true about 3.0.1. More information about what's in the release and the link to download it are at https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases. Information on upgrading to a new version of ArchivesSpace is available at https://archivesspace.github.io/tech-docs/administration/upgrading.html. If you have questions or need any assistance, please let us know. I apologize for the inconvenience but I'm very glad we were able to catch and rectify the issue so soon after the original release. We expect to put out a more typical release with the usual complement of new infrastructure improvements, bug fixes, and feature enhancements in the late summer.

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.crouch at lyrasis.org. We look forward to another great event, with your help!

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&A 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 Science, Children?s Literature track, from St. Petersburg State University of Culture and Arts, Russia. At USF she is doing her MA in Applied Anthropology and will soon graduate to continue her academic path at the University of Kentucky. Library work remains one of her great passions. Who should attend: Anyone interested in implementing ArchivesSpace, developing a migration plan or using ArchivesSpace remotely.

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&A 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.

More details are available from the releases page at https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases. Please note that we are working with community members on an issue related to how Dates of Existence migrate when there are both standardized dates and date expressions in the same date record. If you use Dates of Existence this way, you may want to hold off on upgrading until a new release is available later in the summer. Please contact us if you would like more details.

Webinar Announcement: Virtual Every Step of the Way: Migrating to ArchivesSpace during Remote Work 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&A 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.
