We are just starting to use the LCNAF plugin at Northwestern University. I can send you some of our documentation off list. We've described our best practices and the operations of the plugin in a bit more detail. One thing I can say without including a lot of documentation is that we will not be using the plugin to import Subject records, only Agents. That's because when a Subject is imported using this plugin, individual Subject records are created for the preferred term (the MARC 150 field in the authority record) as well as for each of the non-preferred terms (the MARC 450 fields in the authority record). For example, an LSCH record with 4 non-preferred terms will be imported as 5 Subject records, one for the preferred term and one for each of the non-preferred terms, with no indication in the records for the non-preferred terms that they are references and should not be assigned, as well as no indication of the preferred term with which they are associated. I have written some documentation with a lot of screenshots, which might be useful for you. I'll send it to you off list. Best, Karen Karen D.

It is also described and demonstrated in the Authorities overview video at http://docs.archivesspace.org/screencasts/KLNwebinars/17-AuthoritiesOverview.mp4 (it's discussed at about the 10:45 mark in the video). The ability to import subject headings from LCSH has been added since the instructions were last revised. A few caveats: even though it's distributed with a standard ArchivesSpace, your system administrator has to have enabled use of this plugin for it to be available to you. Also, you have to have advanced data entry privileges or above to access it from the gear menu. You can try it out in the sandbox (http://sandbox.archivesspace.org - use the username admin and the password admin) if you don't have access locally and want to try it out. This plugin is partially proof of concept - a demonstration of what could be done rather than a fully realized mechanism for importing all kinds of authorities. There are many other external databases that could interact with ArchivesSpace this way, and many ways this plugin itself could be improved, and I'd be very interested to hear if others have expanded on this plugin in their local installations.

This minor release has some bug fixes, including a fix for the issue with components being exported in EAD in a different order from how they appear in the staff interface (https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1620), as well as improvements to overall performance. It features work from our development partner, Hudson Molonglo (HM), as well as contributions from community members and release management from our new Tech Lead, Laney McGlohon. Please try out this release candidate as you are able over the next few days and let us know if you experience any problems. If you don't wish to download anything at this time, you can still test drive the release candidate on our test site, http://test.archivesspace.org, using the standard administrative login. There are two ways to let us know the results of your testing: * If you have a JIRA account, put a comment on the relevant JIRA issue for the bug fix or feature. (If you don't already have a JIRA account, you can sign up directly from http://development.archivesspace.org by choosing the Create an account option on the login page.) * If you have feedback that spans issues, or if you'd prefer not to work in JIRA, email it directly to me. If at all possible, please submit your feedback no later than Monday, February 6. It's probably obvious, but what we can address right now is limited to making sure the bug fixes and additional features in this release are working as they should and not impacting other functions unintentionally. You may send us comments and ideas on anything at any time, of course, but, as you would expect, we won't be able to undertake work outside these areas in the narrow window before this release is out the door, so to speak. Barring unforeseen issues, we expect the production release of 1.5.3 to come out by February 10. We expect the next major release of ArchivesSpace, 1.6.0, to come out in March. Thanks to HM for all their work on this release candidate, to our community members that contributed code, and to those on the Prioritization and Testing sub-teams who identified and tested the needed bug fixes. If you have any questions, or if you notice any issues while testing, please let us know.

Previous practice involved hand-encoding EAD in oXygen. We did not use containers but rather consecutive s that were machine generated at the end of description. Processing involved (and continues to involve) a lot of both physical and intellectual arranging and rearranging right up until those s were created. We're having a difficult time with data entry in AS. For example, a bunch of archival objects are created and assigned to Top Container 1. But then we find some more (physical) material that needs to go in Box 1. We shift folders (physically) from Box 1 to Box 2. Do we have to open each archival object that we want moved and assign it to Top Container 2? I know we could physically leave said folders at the end, etc. But first I just want to know if AS allows for bulk editing of archival objects that are already assigned a Top Container to a different Top Container. Am I missing something? Could I use the API for this? For practice sake, what are others doing in this case? Are you ensuring physical order is established before data entry?

Technology and Development Roadmap The ArchivesSpace team has shared a draft Technology and Development Roadmap with the Community at https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ADC/Road+Map. This roadmap is a planning and communication tool to help the community know what to expect in terms of future development work and aid in planning for upcoming releases and application upgrades. The roadmap is a living document that will continue to be updated regularly. By its nature, the roadmap has more detail in the near term but more tentative information about improvements planned farther out.

Christine earned her Bachelor's degree in English from Wesleyan University and her Masters of Science in Information from the School of Information at the University of Michigan. She also holds a Digital Archives Specialist (DAS) certificate from the Society of American Archivists. Christine and Laney McGlohon, the ArchivesSpace Tech Lead, report to Laurie Arp, LYRASIS's Director of Collections Services & Community Supported Software. They will work together to support the ArchivesSpace community and improve the ArchivesSpace application. Christine's new role is effective immediately. Feel free to get in touch with questions or suggestions at christine.dibella at lyrasis.org. An Introduction from Our New Tech Lead, Laney McGlohon "I would like to introduce myself to the ArchivesSpace community. I'm Laney McGlohon, the ArchivesSpace Technical Lead. I started on Monday, January 23, 2017, and will be based in Atlanta, Georgia. I'm an information scientist, software developer, librarian, and data wrangler. I have been writing software for over 30 years and have worked in many different kinds of libraries - public, newspaper, academic, and cultural heritage institutions. My experience with special collections and archives spans more than seven years during which time I worked full-time at the Getty Research Institute (GRI) in Los Angeles and as a consultant and volunteer at the Museum of Ventura County California. I was responsible for managing the Archivists' Toolkit (AT) installations and the import of finding aids in many different digital formats and the export of EADs into the institutional discovery systems and the Online Archive of California. Before I left the GRI in 2014, I had several opportunities to work with the early migration tool from AT to ArchivesSpace and, upon my arrival at Stanford University Libraries, I assisted the University Archivist in the AT migration to the local ArchivesSpace installation. I'm very excited to have this opportunity to work with archivists and other special collections-oriented colleagues again. I look forward to working with all of you on improving the ArchivesSpace application and enhancing the deployment and usability of the software. Expect to hear more about the engagement of a broader set of developers in future development of the application. I will be attending Code4Lib 2017 anticipating opportunities to connect with like-minded people there. You'll be hearing more from Christine and me in the weeks to come about future plans, but in the meantime, feel free to get in touch at any point. I can be reached at laney.mcglohon at lyrasis.org."

Notice the titles read ?Archon Finding Aid Title.? So when I try to Print a PDF of the finding aid, the title of the collection is ?Archon Finding Aid Title, ID #08##z2j.? Is there a simple migration solution that I am missing, or will I need to edit each field afterwards? Thanks.

Aside from a small change made in September 2016 to fix a bug with parsing certain kinds of digital objects, further changes have not been made since then. There is a field called ?Finding Aid Filing Title? in ArchivesSpace which provides the capability of differentiating between how the resource is represented in its title field and formal finding aid title field and how it appears in browse and search lists. If there?s a value in Finding Aid Filing Title, this is what appears in browse and search lists in the staff interface. From a functional standpoint, that would be the place to enter your Sort Titles from Archon. Have others migrating from Archon had the same experience? How have you addressed it with your migrated data?

I have ASpace loaded on a Windows Server 2008 R2. This has been in place for a number of years. Before I installed the Windows service and the changes necessary to run against MySQL, I ran it against the demo database. No problems accessing that. I am checking with another vendor of ours where their app uses MySQL and Java to make sure that any changes I make don't cripple their app. There is only one system variable that I left alone because of that. Once I hear back from them, I can make a change and see if that allows me access. To answer your question about the firewall, I have checked that and it is ok. I have tried a browser both on the server and on a client to see if I can access the database.

As far as I know, there are a couple of fixes for this: 1. Resequence your entire ASpace database. To do this, shut down ASpace, modify config.rb (#AppConfig[:resequence_on_startup] = True), and restart. Beware that resequencing a large database will take a long time, but this should prevent the same error from occurring in other records. 2. Install this plugin that allows you to resequence only the resource record where the error occurs: https://github.com/archivesspace/resync -Noah From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org [mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org] On Behalf Of Wendler, Robin King Sent: Thursday, February 02, 2017 3:46 PM To: archivesspace_users_group at lyralists.lyrasis.org Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] error saving an Archival Object Hello, ASpacers, When saving the archival object below, changed only by adding a single space preceding "Tours" in the title, we get the following error message: [cid:image001.png at 01D27D70.E6CB7BB0] The same error usually occurs if we try to change other archival object records attached to this resource record, but not always.

As far as I know, there are a couple of fixes for this: 1. Resequence your entire ASpace database. To do this, shut down ASpace, modify config.rb (#AppConfig[:resequence_on_startup] = True), and restart. Beware that resequencing a large database will take a long time, but this should prevent the same error from occurring in other records. 2. Install this plugin that allows you to resequence only the resource record where the error occurs: https://github.com/archivesspace/resync -Noah From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org [mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org] On Behalf Of Wendler, Robin King Sent: Thursday, February 02, 2017 3:46 PM To: archivesspace_users_group at lyralists.lyrasis.org Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] error saving an Archival Object Hello, ASpacers, When saving the archival object below, changed only by adding a single space preceding "Tours" in the title, we get the following error message: [cid:image001.png at 01D27D70.E6CB7BB0] The same error usually occurs if we try to change other archival object records attached to this resource record, but not always. One I was able to change, but received the error when I tried to change it back. Another I could change and change back without encountering the error. The resource record itself can be changed.

The redesign is still under way, but it's due for its beta / candidate release at the end of March, with a production-ready release planned for the end of June. With the new PUI, any record that's linked to an Agent record will display on that Agent's landing page. Here's an example (although note that the "archival object" results right now are being doubled, but that should be fixed before the March release, and in this example there would be just 3 search results, not 5): http://pui.hudmol.com/agents/people/113 All that said, it's possible that someone using the current PUI already has a plugin solution for this issue, but I'm personally not aware of one.

I am working on a collection that gets heavy use by genealogists. I am weighing out including names within the archival description for files versus creating agent records and linking them to the files. However, in this test, I noticed that agents associated with archival objects are not linking back to the collection on the public interface: http://sunymaritimearchives.libraryhost.com/agents/26?agent_type=agent_person Under Related Collections it says No Records. Based on perusing the new PUI test site, I *think* maybe this is something that is just not working now that will be fixed when it gets released? Could anyone confirm this? I am in the midst of designing a project for students that is supposed to start in a week - I'd like to have them create agent records, but not if it won't display correctly?

There?s a lot to consider with different sort options, especially if different languages are in the mix, but I hope that sorting will be part of ArchivesSpace staff interface in the future. And I assume that a sorting feature will be considered when updating how the Rapid Data Entry feature works. I?d also love to know if anyone has examples of how to do this with the ArchivesSpace API. I?ve been meaning to come up with something to do that, but haven?t had a chance to experiment with anything yet, though I?d assume, for example, that you could write something to pass in an archival object ID, and then sort all of its immediate children alphabetically, by normalized date values, etc. That?d be pretty handy, too, especially if you could review the sort order before committing to it!

Here?s the controller: https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/controllers/term.rb Terms aren?t really first order objects (they get managed via their parent object), so I?m not sure why they have a uri. For example: /terms q=Audio { "first_page": 1, "last_page": 1, "this_page": 1, "results": [ { "lock_version": 0, "term": "Audio", "created_by": "admin", "last_modified_by": "admin", "create_time": "2017-02-07T05:34:29Z", "system_mtime": "2017-02-07T05:34:29Z", "user_mtime": "2017-02-07T05:34:29Z", "term_type": "genre_form", "jsonmodel_type": "term", "uri": "/terms/3", "vocabulary": "/vocabularies/1" } ] } You see it has a uri (/terms/3), but that is a bit of a lie because there is no corresponding endpoint.

I uploaded an EAD XML file that I had generated from the 1.5.2 AS repository at my last job. The import says it completed successfully and the import log below seems to support that. All the subjects and agents in the EAD are listed below the log in the New & Modified Records section, and if you click them they do link to newly created Agent and Subject records that say they are linked to no resources. However, if I browse Agents and Subjects none of the newly created Agents and Subjects are listed. If I search for the newly created Agents and Subjects they are not findable. So I have some evidence that says they were created and other evidence that says they weren't. The resource record I intended to create is also not findable via search or browsing, so it would appear that it was not created, which I don't understand since the background job says completed. I thought originally that perhaps this was an indexing issue, so I waited overnight but have the same results this morning. Also, I am able to manually add subjects, agents, and resource records in AS and have them appear via search and browse immediately afterwards.

We updated to 1.5.2 in early January and are now experiencing parts of components moving around. See the example below: A subseries exported with the title of a lower subseries. The folders are the ones for the Alice Stone Blackwell subseries, but they've exported with the subseries title of Harriet Taylor Upton. The EAD is exporting this way too. It's happening on multiple finding aids, and is very concerning for us as an institution that uses our own public interface.

We updated to 1.5.2 in early January and are now experiencing parts of components moving around. See the example below: A subseries exported with the title of a lower subseries. The folders are the ones for the Alice Stone Blackwell subseries, but they've exported with the subseries title of Harriet Taylor Upton. [cid:image001.jpg at 01D283A6.E30B63F0] [cid:image002.jpg at 01D283A6.E30B63F0] The EAD is exporting this way too. It's happening on multiple finding aids, and is very concerning for us as an institution that uses our own public interface.

As such, we'd like to prevent the controlled date fields from spawning in the data entry interface via a plug-in. It seems that the subforms are generated by dates.crud.js, which creates the forms upon the user selecting a date type. I'm not quite certain how to remove/override this bit of JavaScript via a plug-in - I tried modifying the JS and saving the file to plugins/my-plugin/frontend/assets/, but to no avail. Is this the right approach to override the script's behavior, or is there another tack I should be taking? More ambitiously, we'd like to only show the controlled date subform to users above a certain permission level. We were able to implement this for non-JS forms in the user interface (via user_can? checks), but I'm not clear as to how this can be done for JS events. Is this possible, and if so, what would need to be modified?

This was something I found in the EAD serializer ( https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/exporters/serializers/ead.rb#L490) and was able to create a temporary solution of generating it , but required altering the enumeration instead of referencing our file. I thought i'd point it out because anyone creating custom enumerations even with a translation in an en.yml file would not see their change reflected in the EAD export. (I've attached an image reflecting this) Anyone experience this? 2. Another example of this case was in the container "type" attribute. Before something like Oversized Box would be export to EAD as is because that was it's value in the enumeration. After we changed the value correctly to oversized_box, it would export to the EAD container "type" as is and translate to the PDF as well. With some XSLT manipulation I was able to get it to show up as oversized box (shown in attachments). I've looked through https://www.loc.gov/ead/tglib/elements/container.html and cannot find an example of a two+ attribute value.

Of course, exporting it as Oversized Box would be easiest to translate a user friendly version to the user.

But in the way JIRA has been used for the last couple years, both of the issues Steve points to in his message are resolved, as are any other issues with an ?Accepted? status. ?Accepted? in our past/present usage means code has been delivered and tested that fixes the issue, or that something else has happened that indicates this issue has reached the end of the line. (If what has happened is more complex than just that it got fixed, there is usually a comment trail on the issue that gives an indication.) We have a number of resources for understanding our current use of JIRA on the wiki at https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ADC/JIRA+Resources. As the process evolves over the coming months with the new crew in place, we?ll update these, but they do reflect how things have worked to now. We?ve heard feedback across the board that people find our use of JIRA and its relationship to Github confusing, and that it?s difficult for people to determine if an issue has been reported and what?s going on with it once it has been. Improving this experience is very high on our priority list and we very much welcome suggestions. As Steve says, there?s been a changing of the guard and that provides an opportunity for us to reexamine various processes and policies and work with all of you to improve them. (On the specific issue of what?s going on with being able to import diacritics/special characters, in general, known issues have been fixed over the years. Determining whether there are still issues often does require examination of the specific file being imported and analyzing whether it?s actually something about the encoding in the file or particular data that is presenting a problem. If the encoding and data look OK, then we need to dig deeper, which many on this list are really expert at doing, as we?ve seen!)

For whatever reason, I?ve found that historically, Archives have often used other charactersets when encoding their EAD files (though to be fair, I see this in MARC records as well; confusion between MARC8, ISO8859-1, and codepage 1252). The simply solution (and this would maintain your characters) would be to convert the character set to UTF8. Otherwise, even if you held on to these values ? they wouldn?t display in any form that you could read; and in fact, that is what the error message is trying to tell you. That as a UTF8 value, your data is going to be gibberish, regardless of if you keep it or not. --tr From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org [mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org] On Behalf Of Stasiulatis, Suzanne Sent: Wednesday, February 15, 2017 3:12 PM To: Archivesspace Users Group > Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Enumerations Findings I totally agree that we shouldn?t have special characters if at all possible, but a large amount of our legacy data uses them.

We wanted to stick as close as possible to ArchivesSpace standards and decided to make our enumeration values all lowercase seperated by an underscore and then merge any records with incorrect enumerations into that correct value (i.e value: linear Feet into linear_feet). We also have some custom enumerations such as: value: oversized_box, translation: Oversized Box; digital_file; Digital File After we had that set up correctly, we had some findings and was wondering if anyone has experienced the same things or had a standard we could use. 1. When generating PDFs and EADs the enumeration values that were custom (such as the oversized_box) would come out as machine readable oversized_box instead of using our local en.yml value (located in the local plugin). This was something I found in the EAD serializer (https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/backend/app/exporters/serializers/ead.rb#L490) and was able to create a temporary solution of generating it , but required altering the enumeration instead of referencing our file. I thought i'd point it out because anyone creating custom enumerations even with a translation in an en.yml file would not see their change reflected in the EAD export. (I've attached an image reflecting this) Anyone experience this? 2. Another example of this case was in the container "type" attribute. Before something like Oversized Box would be export to EAD as is because that was it's value in the enumeration. After we changed the value correctly to oversized_box, it would export to the EAD container "type" as is and translate to the PDF as well. With some XSLT manipulation I was able to get it to show up as oversized box (shown in attachments). I've looked through https://www.loc.gov/ead/tglib/elements/container.html and cannot find an example of a two+ attribute value. Should attributes be machine readable (i.e oversized_box), human readable (Oversized Box), or does it even matter? Of course, exporting it as Oversized Box would be easiest to translate a user friendly version to the user. Excuse me for the lengthy post, I'm trying to be thorough with my explenation, but please let me know if you've come accross something similar or have a finite solution.

The Reports subteam of the ArchivesSpace User Advisory Council is preparing a message that explains what is going on, but information about their current work is available on our wiki at https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/display/AC/ArchivesSpace+Reports. The March release of ArchivesSpace will remove any reports that are not working and aim to get the highest priority reports from the list at the bottom of https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=98009123 working again. Additional work on reports is being evaluated for the June release. In case it is helpful for you, I'll mention a couple other workarounds for working with your data. The v1.5 versions provide a way for getting data out in CSV format. You can access this option from the Browse or search results page for any of the primary record types (Accessions, Resources, Digital Objects, Agents, etc.). This will export every field from every record in the result set, but the data can be refined outside ArchivesSpace. Another option that some people are using with success is setting up an ODBC connection or otherwise hooking ArchivesSpace up to output data to an external program. Nancy Enneking of the Getty presented a lightning talk titled DIY Reports in ArchivesSpace at a session called Making ArchivesSpace Work for You at SAA last summer. Nancy's talk is in the file posted at http://schd.ws/hosted_files/archives2016/3e/Session501-All_presenters.pptx; Nancy's starts on page 40. (There are lots of other great talks in this file too!) I hope this helps a bit. We know that these issues with reports present significant difficulties for people and we're working to resolve them as quickly as we can, but it's a complex process, unfortunately.

According to the Apache error log: [Wed Feb 15 16:45:50.101298 2017] [core:crit] [pid 16935] (22)Invalid argument: AH00069: make_sock: for address [::]:443, apr_socket_opt_set: (IPV6_V6ONLY) (98)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:443 (98)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:443 [Wed Feb 15 16:45:50.101339 2017] [mpm_prefork:alert] [pid 16935] no listening sockets available, shutting down [Wed Feb 15 16:45:50.101341 2017] [:emerg] [pid 16935] AH00019: Unable to open logs, exiting I nmap the server and I see: 80/tcp open http Apache httpd 2.4.6 ((Red Hat Enterprise Linux) 443/tcp open ssl/http Jetty 8.1.5.v20120716 So it seems Apache cannot bind to the port because ArchivesSpace's Jetty sets up shop on the port. Since I have to go through IT to open any new ports, I would much rather stick to 443 than bind Apache to something else. How could I configure Jetty to NOT listen on 443? Any other possible solutions? Thanks in advance.

These will supplement the great work being done by our User Advisory Council and Technical Advisory Council, and their associated subteams. The first working group is for people interested in reviewing and revising the digital object exports (Dublin Core, MODS, METS) in ArchivesSpace. The charge for the group is to: * Identify a set of recommended data elements for each type of digital object export currently supported by ArchivesSpace * Prepare data maps that indicate the recommended data elements for each and identify places where the current export does not meet the recommendations It's possible that, after the initial task is complete, the scope of work could be broadened, including identifying whether there are additional digital object exports that should be supported. The first task, however, is to review and revise the data maps for the existing exports, which will provide us with the specification information we need in order to work with developers on making changes in the application. Once this group has been assembled we'll talk more specifically about timelines, but the hope is that the group's initial work would be completed by the end of April. If you are interested in participating in this group, or know a colleague who should be included, please email me by March 1. Also, if you have questions or suggestions for other working groups (next on the list is a group to evaluate the MARCXML import and export), please don't hesitate to get in touch.

We subsequently discovered that we were having the same problem with Agent records created through the LCNAF plugin. And then I discovered that when we link an Agent record to a Resource or Accession record that link is not reflected in the Linked Records section of the Agent record. It is however reflected in the Agents section of the linked Accession or Resource record, and if we update the Agent record, that change is reflected in the linked Accession or Resource record. It was suggested to me by someone on list that we try restarting our ArchivesSpace instance. Our IT has now done that and the problems described above persist. Has anyone else experienced any of the above problems? We are on 1.4.2. Could this somehow be related to Solr? Thanks much, Alston Cobourn ________________________________________________________ Dear all, Yesterday I tested out EAD import into the AS 1.4.2 test repository of the production instance at the university to which I have recently moved. I uploaded an EAD XML file that I had generated from the 1.5.2 AS repository at my last job. The import says it completed successfully and the import log below seems to support that. All the subjects and agents in the EAD are listed below the log in the New & Modified Records section, and if you click them they do link to newly created Agent and Subject records that say they are linked to no resources. However, if I browse Agents and Subjects none of the newly created Agents and Subjects are listed. If I search for the newly created Agents and Subjects they are not findable. So I have some evidence that says they were created and other evidence that says they weren't. The resource record I intended to create is also not findable via search or browsing, so it would appear that it was not created, which I don't understand since the background job says completed. I thought originally that perhaps this was an indexing issue, so I waited overnight but have the same results this morning. Also, I am able to manually add subjects, agents, and resource records in AS and have them appear via search and browse immediately afterwards.

You might check using the backend API to see if the subject and agents are visible there. Using the curl_as or curl_as_osx scripts the source distribution or github check http://backend.host:port/subjects?all_ids=true and you?ll get an array of subject id numbers. The last numbers should be the last ones created, so with one of those ids, check: http://backend.host:port/subjects/id Alternatively, you can look at the subject table in mysql: "select id,title from subject order by id;? I?m using subjects as an example because it?s simpler that agents ? there are different kinds of agents so there are more places to look. But you can check agents as well if you know where to look. If you can find one of your recently created subject, then they were created and it?s likely it is a problem with indexing. You can also try inspecting the solr web console ? by default port 8090. Try q -> ?types:subject? in the query form. If that is the problem, you can try shutting down archivesspace, delete data/indexer_state/* files, and restart archivesspace and see if they appear. You might also monitor the log file to see if there are any indexer errors. ( This is a lot easier to see if you can run servers separately in development mode. In production, logs from all servers are in a single stream, so if there?s other activity it may be hard to catch. If you can?t do this, it may help to do this when there is little other activity besides the indexing on the servers. ) In another recent thread about broken container indexing in v1.5.x, when the indexer hit an error, it kept attempting to reindex the same records that caused the error, and so nothing after that bad record ever got indexed. So it may be possible that there?s a record causing the indexer to break that is prior to the current imports that seem to be failing. If you want to post sample files, I can try importing them, but the fact that you?re not seeing results from different imports makes me suspect that if it?s not something fixed by restarting and reindexing, it may be this sort of blockage. ?

We have never used an archival software program so migrating our legacy data over to this software is going to be a major project. I'm still learning the way AS employs certain terms. Perhaps one question will begin to clarify matters. Our archives has historical organized materials based on the materials type. We have a microfilm collection, a CD collection, an LP collection, manuscripts collections, etc. I don't think we will be able to migrate all of our accession records. For the past 30 years we've had a digital accession ledger. From 1950-1990 our ledger was handwritten. And prior to 1950 accessions are recorded in a variety of letter, cards, and other loose papers. I'm using the microfilm collection as a first test case. My debate has been when I should enter each reel as a separate resource record or whether I should setup the entire Microfilm collection as a resource record which contains the individual "child" items as a part of it. Or perhaps there are other options that I can't see that would be better. I'd appreciate any thoughts. We installed version 1.5. thanks, Todd D.

Do you have multiple physical repositories? If not, you might consider a format-based repository style. i.e. Repo1=Microfilm Collections & Repo2=CD Collection, etc. This isn't necessarily the typical set-up, but it might help you differentiate formats as per your current standard, each thing being able to be its own resource if you choose, while avoiding load time issues involved with resources that have a lot of child records.

Greetings: We are glad to join to ArchivesSpace community. We have never used an archival software program so migrating our legacy data over to this software is going to be a major project. I'm still learning the way AS employs certain terms. Perhaps one question will begin to clarify matters. Our archives has historical organized materials based on the materials type. We have a microfilm collection, a CD collection, an LP collection, manuscripts collections, etc. I don't think we will be able to migrate all of our accession records. For the past 30 years we've had a digital accession ledger. From 1950-1990 our ledger was handwritten. And prior to 1950 accessions are recorded in a variety of letter, cards, and other loose papers. I'm using the microfilm collection as a first test case. My debate has been when I should enter each reel as a separate resource record or whether I should setup the entire Microfilm collection as a resource record which contains the individual "child" items as a part of it. Or perhaps there are other options that I can't see that would be better. I'd appreciate any thoughts. We installed version 1.5. thanks, Todd D.

It seems we can all agree there is some confusion on the creation of controlled values that occur when there is an import whether it is marc or ead. I've attached a simple EAD example to import (may not be complete, but does contain some valid examples). This EAD example was exported from our testing area for ArchivesSpace and I've round trip it as a new record. While I don't think we've had any character/UTF8 encoding samples, I wanted to point out some simpler examples (with incorrect enumerations). Under the -> -> you will see 1 Linear Feet. Though it is correct in the EAD, on import, it will create a new Linear Feet value instead of using the already existing controlled value of linear_feet. Similarly, for containers under it will create a new enumeration as Mixed Materials instead of mixed_materials. Evidently, if this happens for many records you'll see many enumeration values that are not correct under your values when you create a record. We are still under 1.4.2 and cannot speak for the new version. Thank you, Carlos Lemus Application Programmer, Special Collections Technical Services University Libraries, University of Nevada, Las Vegas *How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth? - Sherlock Holmes* -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

These will supplement the great work being done by our User Advisory Council and Technical Advisory Council, and their associated subteams. The first working group is for people interested in reviewing and revising the digital object exports (Dublin Core, MODS, METS) in ArchivesSpace. The charge for the group is to: * Identify a set of recommended data elements for each type of digital object export currently supported by ArchivesSpace * Prepare data maps that indicate the recommended data elements for each and identify places where the current export does not meet the recommendations It's possible that, after the initial task is complete, the scope of work could be broadened, including identifying whether there are additional digital object exports that should be supported. The first task, however, is to review and revise the data maps for the existing exports, which will provide us with the specification information we need in order to work with developers on making changes in the application. Once this group has been assembled we'll talk more specifically about timelines, but the hope is that the group's initial work would be completed by the end of April. If you are interested in participating in this group, or know a colleague who should be included, please email me by March 1. Also, if you have questions or suggestions for other working groups (next on the list is a group to evaluate the MARCXML import and export), please don't hesitate to get in touch.

For example, if you have an item in a folder and the folder is in a box and you want all that information in the record, the top container is the box - so the box would have a barcode but not the folder or item. If you have an item and it's not in a folder or box (or no one needs to know if it's in a folder or a box), then the item is the top container and you would barcode it. I suppose you could create a series/subseries that's box 1, (or box 1, folder 1) and add the items as children.... As for the Access database import question, the answer is sorta. You would need to export the data you want out of Access as an Excel spreadsheet. If your data is spread across multiple tables, you'll need to create a Make Table query that pulls the data you want and saves it into a separated table. You can then export the resulting table to Excel, rename column headers and the re-order the columns to match the ArchivesSpace mapping tables and import. Easier said than done but it is possible. --Miloche From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org [mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org] On Behalf Of Kelly J Smith Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2017 9:34 AM To: 'archivesspace_users_group at lyralists.lyrasis.org' Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] bar coding and migration questions Hello, I have two questions regarding using ArchivesSpace to manage an art collection.

I was unable to see anything in the logs or any sort of malicious traffic so I put a few stop gaps in place. First, I adjusted IP Table and Firewall rules to lock down the application to only campus IP ranges. The application is only used by staff currently and they know if they are coming from off campus they need to use EZProxy or VPN for access. Secondly, I set a nightly restart cron from the root user's crontab: # restart archivesspace every night at 2am 00 02 * * * /etc/init.d/archivesspace stop 05 02 * * * /etc/init.d/archivesspace start We haven't experience CPU load warnings since I put these stop gaps in place.

We aren't seeing any resource usage spikes during/before outages, and the disk isn't filling up, so that isn't the issue on our end. We've already limited ASpace to our internal network, so it's not a question of extreme traffic.
