[Archivesspace_Users_Group] bioghist from related agent in EAD

[Custer, Mark]

ArchivesSpace +1 (but I’d also love to see how it’s handled at Dartmouth in the near term!)

We’ve discussed such a feature locally, as well.  There are a few details to work out, of course, but I’d like to have such an option when running exports.

In addition to exports, it would also be nice to have more intertwingling of EAC and EAD in the public interface (i.e. no clicking required). The public interface enhancement project is still in its early phases, but I think that there are a lot of exciting possibilities for how ASpace can present and utilize archival descriptions in new, web-friendly ways.

Thanks, Brad. Todo list +1.

We (Dartmouth) have a lot of *extremely* local names that may or may not ever make it into a collective db. Even if they did, that seems to be pretty far in the future, so I for one would definitely vote for including this - perhaps as an option in the export if its not the local practice to include the bioghist at a particular institution.

There are no plans to do that, Joshua.

Do folks think that would a good feature?  Do folks foresee any problems in doing so, now or in the future when agent records might be pulled from a national authority database?

Hi all-

Just wondering if anyone knows if there are any plans to include bioghist statements from related agents in EAD exports? The only mention I've seen is from 2013 (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/archivesspace/Vwsh6DGUs0M/XjKpJ3QZw-EJ<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__groups.google.com_forum_-23-21msg_archivesspace_Vwsh6DGUs0M_XjKpJ3QZw-2DEJ&d=AwMGaQ&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=s7ciGQfUJeaV_ryx908hbeXDoU9aqDwDN0Z0VbfsJ3Y&m=O7OPccBPFxZ4Imo2pPl5Myf_Q7P7Ovl6o74LXPilM88&s=Lorj0772Qe14vBs7w-hMRQ9B6KHIg_3qHRiVLKJdpzw&e=>).

We're doing some customization of the export for our instance, so just wondering if I'll need to add this to my todo list.

Thanks!
Joshua
