[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Using the Rights sub-records instead of Conditions Governing Access/Use notes?

[Arnold, Hillel]

I’ll also add that we here at the Rockefeller Archive Center along with some of our colleagues at the Bentley Library, Artefactual and the ArchivesSpace team have been working on putting together a specification for building out the structured rights statements functionality in ArchivesSpace. I think we’re pretty close to having something that we can circulate on this list, so stay tuned for that if you’re interested in recording machine-actionable rights statements!

Hi, Jordan,

The Yale ArchivesSpace Committee considered using the rights records before we proceeded with developing the machine actionable conditions governing access and use note. Here is a link to the topic discussion in the AS Google Group list (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/archivesspace/EGdXp7_l-XQ). A search on the list might bring up some of the pros and cons. – Best, Mary

Hi all,

I know most of the conversation around the Rights sub-records has been limited to digital records, but our analysis suggests that conceptually rights sub-records are simply more granular, machine-actionable forms of conditions governing access and use notes that apply to both analog and digital collections. So we’re considering doing away completely with our use of the more general conditions governing access and use notes in favor of these more precise rights sub-records. Has anyone else considered or done this, or considered it and chose not to? Are we missing something?

Thanks!

Best,

Jordon
