[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Name authority file

[Brad Westbrook]

Hi, Francis,

Agents in ArchivesSpace are all filed in the same Agents module.  Each agent record is linked to an archival object (accession, resource, digital object) as either a "creator," "source," or "subject"  per the clip below.

Since IT deleted our Archivists' Toolkit, I will not need to migrate anything to ArchivesSpace. My question is basic: Are names of people etc. used as subjects and not creators etc. entered in the Agent or Subject area? I thought in AT there was a separate data entry point for name as subjects.

By re-creating the entire archives, I am learning what we have. Thanks for the info.

Francis
