From bobbi_fox at harvard.edu Mon Oct 2 16:03:57 2017 From: bobbi_fox at harvard.edu (Fox, Bobbi) Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2017 20:03:57 +0000 Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Running the (development) PUI on a separate server? In-Reply-To: References: , , Message-ID: Hi, all, Using these instructions, I was able to get it to work! Note that, while I pointed to the external (to my dev environment) solr server, it really isn't necessary, since the PUI solr requests are funneled through the back en. At some point, I'll make the build/build.xml more flexible (to accommodate this) and do a pull request, but that's in the future. I also will be looking (in the future, not now) at being able to host the Public UI on a separate server for reals. Thanks again!

OK: This seems to work for me: In the public:devserver target of build/build.xml: change -Daspace.config.backend_url= to point to the remote backend server. Solr URL and public_user_secret are set in default_java_options property near the head of that file. It looks like those can also be set from a JAVA_OPTS environment variable. Solr URL should point to the remote solr server, and public_user_secret needs to be set to the same value for both local devserver and in AppConfig[:public_user_secret] on the remote server. Otherwise, you'll get login failures from the local public app being unable to log into the remote backend. With those settings, it appears to be working for me, but I haven't exhaustively tested it. -- Steve Majewski / UVA Alderman Library ________________________________ From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org > on behalf of Majewski, Steven Dennis (sdm7g) > Sent: Friday, September 29, 2017 4:09:56 PM To: Archivesspace Users Group Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Running the (development) PUI on a separate server?

I haven't tried it (yet) but I'm guessing that you just have to set AppConfig[:enable_*] for all but :enable_public to false, and redirect all of the "http://localhost:port" default settings for AppConfig[:*_url] to point to the remote counterparts. You might also need to set AppConfig[:frontend_proxy_url] That should (in theory) get you a configuration with only public server running, talking to backend, solr and frontend on remote server. -- Steve Majewski / UVA Alderman Library ________________________________ From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org > on behalf of Fox, Bobbi > Sent: Friday, September 29, 2017 2:14:58 PM To: Archivesspace Users Group Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Running the (development) PUI on a separate server? Hi, I'm working on customizing the PUI for our institution, working in development mode, and, rather than cloning off our humongous, takes-2+-days to index database (which I need to do, because my "product owner" is a committee made up of picky(yeah, that's redundant) Archivists :-) , I was hoping to point to the backend of our V2.1.* QA system already running.

You can download it at https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v2.2.0-RC1 or test it out without downloading at http://test.archivesspace.org (username admin /password admin). We are especially pleased because this release candidate includes two community-contributed areas of new functionality: Tufts University subsidized a new assessment module, based very closely on a community-authored specification and hewing closely to the functionality previously available in Archivists' Toolkit. The development was done by Hudson Molonglo. Dan Santamaria and Adrienne Pruitt took the lead on the Tufts side in working closely with HM developers James Bullen, Mark Triggs, and Payten Giles. They also coordinated putting the module out for wider testing, in which people at institutions including the Smithsonian, Smith College, University of Michigan Special Collections, and the Historical Society of Pennsylvania participated. Trevor Thornton of North Carolina State University and Noah Huffman of Duke University partnered to create an EAD3 exporter, based on a community-distributed specification. Trevor did the development and Noah did extensive and iterative testing. We are excited to have this first level of support for EAD3 in ArchivesSpace and see this as a building block for additional EAD3 support in future releases. Thanks also to Mark Custer at Yale for providing testing feedback. Thank you so much to Dan, Adrienne, Trevor, and Noah for all their work in bringing these projects to completion and making the results available to the entire ArchivesSpace community. If your institution would like to get involved in subsidizing or working on development prioritized by the ArchivesSpace community, please get in touch with me or Laney. This release candidate also includes some bug fixes and improvements contributed by community members Steve Majewski, Chris Fitzpatrick, Mark Cooper, Payten Giles, and Christian von Kleist, as well as development work by our Tech Lead Laney McGlohon. Please test this release candidate as you are able over the next few days and report any issues you find to me at christine.dibella at lyrasis.org. Barring significant issues, we hope to make the production release available sometime next week.

It seems like an exciting project, and many of the listed features are much-needed. I wonder, though, about the advisability of adding the "ability to create top containers independent of specific material records" - https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1874. You can already do this via the API - in fact, you have to create unlinked top containers before you can link them to material description records. This is less than ideal, as it adds extra steps to the process - after creating the top containers, you then have to pull those top container URIs and link them to the material descriptions using a different endpoint. If the goal is to create top containers in bulk (and then link them to descriptions) via the staff interface, wouldn't it make more sense, as the JIRA ticket above notes, to add that ability within a material description record or RDE (https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1873), rather than to enable the potential proliferation of unlinked containers? It seems like this could lead to all kinds of confusion and messy data in ArchivesSpace, especially if there are multiple unlinked containers with the same container profile, indicator, etc. I think it might be better to solve the underlying issue rather than write a workaround into the application.

All collections associated with the agents, whether as a source, subject, or creator, do display on the agent page as Related Collections and/or Records-just not accessions. I have made certain the accessions in question are enabled for publication and discoverable in the public interface via search/browse, so it's not that the accessions are hidden from public view. I've highlighted an example in the attached screenshots where an agent with 13 linked accessions/collections combined in the database gives the false impression there is only a single collection associated with that agent when landing on the agent page. Any chance I'm missing something? Or is there a reason accessions do not appear on an agent page? Purdue would like to see published accessions also appear on the page of an agent in the public interface. We're using version 2.1.2.

It's hard to imagine, from a collections control perspective, the advantage of having free-floating top containers not associated with intellectual information. Even if you have a true "mystery box" in your repository that has indecipherable scrawled sharpie on it (we've all been there, I AM there, I feel you), I think that it would be more valuable to associate this with an accession or resource record that explains that this is a true mystery and where you can record the steps that you've already taken to decipher it. Otherwise, you can't tell whether it's a lost/mystery box or if it was just somehow unlinked from the resource/accession record it belongs to. Something I find valuable about ArchivesSpace is that as a system, it forces a minimum of best archival practices -- for instance, a resource record reinforces the DACS single-level minimum element set, top containers won't let you repeat barcodes, etc. I think that those of us who have participated in collection survey / remediation / backlog projects would definitely appreciate a system that forces at least some association between the stuff and where it came from.

I looked at that accession record on several occasions after that. Two weeks ago I looked at our ArchivesSpace accession records to gather statistics for our annual report and discovered that the accession record mentioned above no longer displayed in accessions browse view and was not returned as a search result when searched for. The linked instances do still show up in search results, but the system says they are not linked to any other records. If I try to add a new accession to the system with the same ID number it tells me it cannot add the record because that identifier is already in use. I have confirmed that the original accession is still listed in the accessions table in the backend database. Does anyone have thoughts as to why this record was showing up in the staff interface but now is not? I have not run into this issue with any other records of any kind. The indexer appears to be working; changes we make- deletions and additions- are showing up in the staff interface. ________________________________ From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org on behalf of archivesspace_users_group-request at lyralists.lyrasis.org Sent: Friday, October 6, 2017 8:20:04 AM To: archivesspace_users_group at lyralists.lyrasis.org Subject: Archivesspace_Users_Group Digest, Vol 51, Issue 2 Send Archivesspace_Users_Group mailing list submissions to archivesspace_users_group at lyralists.lyrasis.org To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://lyralists.lyrasis.org/mailman/listinfo/archivesspace_users_group or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to archivesspace_users_group-request at lyralists.lyrasis.org You can reach the person managing the list at archivesspace_users_group-owner at lyralists.lyrasis.org When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Archivesspace_Users_Group digest..."

It seems like an exciting project, and many of the listed features are much-needed. I wonder, though, about the advisability of adding the "ability to create top containers independent of specific material records" - https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1874. You can already do this via the API - in fact, you have to create unlinked top containers before you can link them to material description records. This is less than ideal, as it adds extra steps to the process - after creating the top containers, you then have to pull those top container URIs and link them to the material descriptions using a different endpoint. If the goal is to create top containers in bulk (and then link them to descriptions) via the staff interface, wouldn't it make more sense, as the JIRA ticket above notes, to add that ability within a material description record or RDE (https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1873), rather than to enable the potential proliferation of unlinked containers? It seems like this could lead to all kinds of confusion and messy data in ArchivesSpace, especially if there are multiple unlinked containers with the same container profile, indicator, etc. I think it might be better to solve the underlying issue rather than write a workaround into the application.

All collections associated with the agents, whether as a source, subject, or creator, do display on the agent page as Related Collections and/or Records-just not accessions. I have made certain the accessions in question are enabled for publication and discoverable in the public interface via search/browse, so it's not that the accessions are hidden from public view. I've highlighted an example in the attached screenshots where an agent with 13 linked accessions/collections combined in the database gives the false impression there is only a single collection associated with that agent when landing on the agent page. Any chance I'm missing something? Or is there a reason accessions do not appear on an agent page? Purdue would like to see published accessions also appear on the page of an agent in the public interface. We're using version 2.1.2.

Message-ID: <4550D4B2-A6E9-43A4-A748-CDCECA67796B@unco.edu> Dear ASpace Users, I?m curious to know if anyone is using ASpace to page boxes (check them in and out). If so, how are you doing this? We will be using ASpace for stacks management and plan to use our ILS to check boxes in and out. Of course it would be great to only have to use one system for everything. I don?t think ASpace has paging functionality, but am curious to know if anyone has a work-around, built a plug-in, or otherwise figured out how to use ASpace for checking out boxes. Feel free to respond to the list or contact me directly. Thank you!

We're planning a plugin type architecture for now that will eventually give us: 1) circulation of any object (checkout, checkin, hold) 2) allow patrons to initiate the circulation/request process, including registration. We have both internal Dartmouth people and tons of non-Dartmouth researchers, so we need a method to authenticate/register any patron. 3) allow staff to mediate the requests - either by modifying a patron request or by adding items on an ad hoc basis (since a bunch of our stuff isn't listed in any system, we'll be allowing a free text-ish field as well for those pesky items) 4) printing of pull slips - dual slips so we get one for the item and one for the shelf 5) allow staff a view of what is currently in use in the reading room and what is on hold. 6) stats! TBD, but breakdown by patron type and collection at least There's some other bits and pieces, but I think those are the highlights. Early days at this point, but it'd be great to hear your ideas - and those of anyone else who is interested! Joshua PS. You can contact me (joshua.d.shaw at dartmouth.edu) or Peter Carini (peter.carini at dartmouth.edu) directly if that's helpful. ________________________________ From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org on behalf of Uglean Jackson, Laura Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2017 12:57:17 PM To: archivesspace_users_group at lyralists.lyrasis.org Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] ASpace for paging boxes?

You can download the new release from Github at https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v2.2.0. Please see the technical documentation for information on how to upgrade your ArchivesSpace installations. We are especially pleased because this release includes two new areas of long-desired functionality contributed by community members: Tufts University subsidized a new assessment module, based very closely on a community-authored specification and hewing closely to the functionality previously available in Archivists' Toolkit. The development was done by Hudson Molonglo. Dan Santamaria and Adrienne Pruitt took the lead on the Tufts side in working closely with HM developers James Bullen, Mark Triggs, and Payten Giles. They also coordinated putting the module out for wider testing, in which people at institutions including the Smithsonian, Smith College, University of Michigan Special Collections, and the Historical Society of Pennsylvania participated. Trevor Thornton of North Carolina State University and Noah Huffman of Duke University partnered to create an EAD3 exporter, based on a community-distributed specification. Trevor did the development and Noah did extensive and iterative testing. We are excited to have this first level of support for EAD3 in ArchivesSpace and see this as a building block for additional EAD3 support in future releases. Thanks also to Mark Custer at Yale for providing testing feedback. Thank you so much to Dan, Adrienne, Trevor, and Noah for all their work in bringing these projects to completion and making the results available to the entire ArchivesSpace community. If your institution would like to get involved in subsidizing or working on development prioritized by the ArchivesSpace community, please get in touch with me or Laney. This release also includes some bug fixes and improvements contributed by community members Steve Majewski, Chris Fitzpatrick, Mark Cooper, Payten Giles, and Christian von Kleist, as well as development work by our Tech Lead Laney McGlohon. I want to note that this release does not include improvements to the relevancy ranking for search results in the new Public User Interface (JIRA issues: https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-201 and https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1882). Knowing how important this is for many users, we have prioritized it for a fix and been working on it since the tickets were first filed; unfortunately due to the complexity of the problem, we have not yet been able to address it satisfactorily enough to include a fix in this release. Rather than further delay releasing the new functionality that our community members have worked so hard on, we have chosen to put out this release now and will keep working on the PUI indexer issue. We intend to have another minor release, that hopefully includes those improvements, later in October or early in November. Thanks as always to all who contributed to this release, by identifying needed improvements, writing specifications, writing code, testing, and providing technical support. We truly appreciate all that so many of you do in coordination with the ArchivesSpace team to make each release of the ArchivesSpace application possible. If you have any question or difficulties upgrading, please just let us know.

We recently upgraded to v2.1.2. General keyword searching works find in the staff interface, but if we enclose any search terms in quotes, for example, "Theatre and Arts Foundation" we get the lovely white screen/bold red text message: We're sorry, but something went wrong, even though we have a collection named Theatre and Arts Foundation Records. We've tried this with lots of different word combinations that we know should work fine and retrieve results-same error message. However, if I search for the resource or accession number for any collection in quotes, such as "mss 0152", the correct collection pops right up, so the use of quotes is not a total deal-breaker in our search. I was thinking I'd go to the sandbox and smugly recreate the problem and report it, but using some of the sample collections in there to do quotes-enclosed searches, everything worked perfectly.

I have a large collection of university photographs, and one of my series of Alumni and Former Students. I have files for individual students, so you can imagine that this collection gets large and unwieldy. Sometimes I want to be able to search within this collection, but I don?t understand if there?s a way to do that. Is there? Is this even a thing? Does anyone else ever wish for that ability?

In the PUI, yes, you can do this. In the Staff Interface, you can also do this, but the approach isn?t as obvious. But you can return every record that?s part of a specific resource by searching for its URI fragment. For example, in http://test.archivesspace.org, there?s a Repository named GoneRepo, and in that repository there?s a resource named Aperture Labs Records. That resource has a URI fragment of ?resources/45?, which is unique in that instance of ArchivesSpace. If you search for that fragment in quotes, like so, http://test.archivesspace.org/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=%22resources%2F45%22, then you?ll get all of the records associated with that collection. You can then filter by ?archival objects,? for instance, if you only want all the components that are part of that collection, rather than top container, event, and other record types.

We have a pre-release version of the Archivists' Toolkit migration tool that migrates directly into ArchivesSpace version 2.1.2, and we need help testing this before it goes live. We're still accepting applications for a new DevOps Specialist to support the ArchivesSpace community. And read on for details on the upcoming PUI implementation strategies webinar on October 26! Development The ArchivesSpace team is pleased to release version 2.2.0! You can download the new release from Github at https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v2.2.0. Please see the technical documentation for information on how to upgrade your ArchivesSpace installations. We are especially pleased because this release includes two new areas of long-desired functionality contributed by community members: Tufts University subsidized a new assessment module, based very closely on a community-authored specification and hewing closely to the functionality previously available in Archivists' Toolkit. The development was done by Hudson Molonglo. Dan Santamaria and Adrienne Pruitt took the lead on the Tufts side in working closely with HM developers James Bullen, Mark Triggs, and Payten Giles. They also coordinated putting the module out for wider testing, in which people at institutions including the Smithsonian, Smith College, University of Michigan Special Collections, and the Historical Society of Pennsylvania participated. Trevor Thornton of North Carolina State University and Noah Huffman of Duke University partnered to create an EAD3 exporter, based on a community-distributed specification. Trevor did the development and Noah did extensive and iterative testing. We are excited to have this first level of support for EAD3 in ArchivesSpace and see this as a building block for additional EAD3 support in future releases. Thanks also to Mark Custer at Yale for providing testing feedback. Thank you so much to Dan, Adrienne, Trevor, and Noah for all their work in bringing these projects to completion and making the results available to the entire ArchivesSpace community. If your institution would like to get involved in subsidizing or working on development prioritized by the ArchivesSpace community, please get in touch with me or Laney. This release also includes some bug fixes and improvements contributed by community members Steve Majewski, Chris Fitzpatrick, Mark Cooper, Payten Giles, and Christian von Kleist, as well as development work by our Tech Lead Laney McGlohon. I want to note that this release does not include improvements to the relevancy ranking for search results in the new Public User Interface (JIRA issues: https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/ANW-201 and https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1882). Knowing how important this is for many users, we have prioritized it for a fix and been working on it since the tickets were first filed; unfortunately due to the complexity of the problem, we have not yet been able to address it satisfactorily enough to include a fix in this release. Rather than further delay releasing the new functionality that our community members have worked so hard on, we have chosen to put out this release now and will keep working on the PUI indexer issue. We intend to have another minor release, that hopefully includes those improvements, later in October or early in November. Thanks as always to all who contributed to this release, by identifying needed improvements, writing specifications, writing code, testing, and providing technical support. We truly appreciate all that so many of you do in coordination with the ArchivesSpace team to make each release of the ArchivesSpace application possible. Webinar on the new PUI: October 26, 1-2:30 EST Join us on October 26 as we take a close look at a variety of implementation strategies on the new ArchivesSpace PUI! Mark Custer (Archivist and Metadata Coordinator, Yale University) and Susan Pyzynski (Associate Librarian of Houghton Library for Technical Services, Harvard University) were deeply entrenched in the public interface as they led the community effort to shape this essential access point for archival collections. Now they have moved onto their next great challenge -- implementing the PUI at their own institutions. Mark and Susan will each share the strategies they have created to roll out the new PUI. Both institutions aim to be using the new PUI by early next year. Grand Valley State University has been using the ArchivesSpace PUI since 2014 and have already rolled out the new public interface. Annie Benefiel (Archivist for Collection Management, GVSU) and Leigh Rupinski (Archivist for Public Services & Community Engagement, GVSU) will share valuable insight on how the PUI has affected their day-to-day responsibilities as well as public reception and adapting their instruction for students and researchers. Please join us on October 26 at 1-2:30 EST as Mark, Susan, Annie, and Leigh as they share their experiences. Please feel free to bring any questions you have on the new public interface! The webinar will be available through: http://lyrasis.adobeconnect.com/rnz7zrtmy04h/ and the recording will be available at a later date. No registration required. The session is limited to the first 100 participants. Please feel free to host a webinar viewing group. If you have any questions about this webinar, please contact Kim at christine.kim at lyrasis.org. We look forward to seeing you at the webinar! Call for Testers - Archivists' Toolkit to ArchivesSpace Migration The ArchivesSpace Program Team is looking for people who haven't yet migrated from Archivists' Toolkit to ArchivesSpace to test updates to the Archivists' Toolkit migration tool. We have developed a pre-release version of the Archivists' Toolkit migration tool that migrates directly into ArchivesSpace version 2.1.2. In addition to the updates we have already made, we are planning to add the assessment information from AT to the migration tool once the assessment module is available in a production release of ArchivesSpace. If you're interested, please email Laney at laney.mcglohon at lyrasis.org. Request for Proposals for Container Management Development ArchivesSpace is seeking proposals from individuals or firms interested in providing development for a limited scope project to add functionality to the container management area of the application. We are prioritizing this work for engagement of an outside contractor based on expressed interest from a number of members, including one that may have funding to pay for it. Please feel free to forward this RFP on to people you think may be interested and qualified to do this work. We are asking that people please email proposals to Christine (christine.dibella at lyrasis.org) by October 27, 2017. Proposals should include a proposed action plan, pricing, timeline, names and contact information for at least two client references, and examples of relevant work in ArchivesSpace or other applications. If people have questions about the RFP, feel free to send them my way as well. Laney can answer technical questions about the application and how delivery of code would work. Issuing RFPs for specific projects is another strategy we are using to diversify our pool of available developers and continue to making substantial forward progress on the application. If you have any questions, or if you have suggestions for projects that may be particularly appropriate for this type of treatment, please just let us know. We're hiring! DevOps Specialist supporting ArchivesSpace Announced in last month's update, we are still accepting applications for the DevOps Specialist position supporting the ArchivesSpace community and the ArchivesSpace program team. LYRASIS, the organizational home for ArchivesSpace, recently approved an additional staff position based in Technology Services to support ArchivesSpace technical needs. The position description can be found at https://www.lyrasis.org/job/Pages/LYRASIS-Positions.aspx. While the position will report to the Director of Technology Services, the person in the position will work closely with the ArchivesSpace program team to provide technical support for ArchivesSpace members as well as coding and other technical assistance for the application. Over time the person will have additional responsibilities for supporting LYRASIS hosting clients. This position is ideal for someone who is familiar with ArchivesSpace or other archival/collection management systems and likes to help people with their technical questions. Previous experience with multiple platforms (Linux, Mac, Windows), MySQL, Java, Ruby, and Apache Solr is required. We are excited about this additional support within the organizational home for ArchivesSpace technical needs. If you are interested in applying, or know someone who is, applications, including a cover letter and resume, are being accepted via email at human.resources at lyrasis.org. If you have questions about the position, feel free to reach out to Christine (christine.dibella at lyrasis.org) or Laney (laney.mcglohon at lyrasis.org). Introducing a new blog series: All About Community! ArchivesSpace is community-supported software. But what does that mean? With a current program staff of only 3.75 FTE, ArchivesSpace owes its dynamic growth primarily to the active user community, currently over 300 members strong. Without this community, the progress ArchivesSpace has made since its first release in 2013 could not be possible. So how do we all work together? All About Community is a blog series that highlights the many teams and groups that contribute to the growth and development of ArchivesSpace. This series aims to provide insight on how our diverse community comes together with a shared vision to preserve permanently valuable records and provide access to our researchers. Every month, we'll take a close look at each team, group, council, etc to highlight their major accomplishments and activities. Follow along: http://archivesspace.org/category/all-about-community/ Have ideas, questions, feedback, or your own stories you'd like to share? Email Kim at christine.kim at lyrasis.org.

In the PUI, yes, you can do this. In the Staff Interface, you can also do this, but the approach isn?t as obvious. But you can return every record that?s part of a specific resource by searching for its URI fragment. For example, in http://test.archivesspace.org, there?s a Repository named GoneRepo, and in that repository there?s a resource named Aperture Labs Records. That resource has a URI fragment of ?resources/45?, which is unique in that instance of ArchivesSpace. If you search for that fragment in quotes, like so, http://test.archivesspace.org/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=%22resources%2F45%22, then you?ll get all of the records associated with that collection. You can then filter by ?archival objects,? for instance, if you only want all the components that are part of that collection, rather than top container, event, and other record types.

I just wanted to show that there is a workaround in this particular use case, as long as you combine the URI fragment search trick with the advanced search features in the staff interface. E.g. here I?m searching for the term ?cake? within any record attached to ?resources/45?: [cid:image002.jpg at 01D346A1.EADE9110] Not ideal, but it helps when searching within a single collection (or just a few, if you?re willing to add more rows and Booleans ?). Moving forward, there should definitely be a closer alignment, as well continued improvements, in both the staff and public interfaces of ASpace. If I recall correctly, Dartmouth has done a lot of work updating how the search results appear in the staff interface, for instance. And, as Maureen notes, there?s always room for other facets to consider adding, and a restriction one would be fantastic! Another one that I?d love to have is the ability to just add a simple ?on-site? vs. ?off-site? facet that could be governed by flagging certain locations as ?off-site? locations.

For example, when creating or editing new records it often takes 20-30 minutes for those changes to index and become visible in the staff UI. Also, deleted records still persist in searches and browses, sometimes indefinitely, even though the records themselves have been deleted from the underlying database. The SOLR admin site also reports that the indexer is consuming almost all of the available memory (12GB RAM). I've read all the previous posts about indexing issues and we don't seem to have any orphaned records or other previously reported issues that might cause this. The log file does indicate some problem, but I can't interpret what's going on. Here's a gist with a snapshot of the log file showing the error that is repeating over and over, usually followed by thousands of rows that indicate some kind of delete action. I'm definitely not deleting this many documents... https://gist.github.com/noahgh221/2a274def65c858662c64e4cd2c5b0de4 My hunch is that ASpace is stuck in some sort of loop trying to delete (unsuccessfully) the same set of records over and over. We've shut the application down and triggered a re-index, but the problem still persists. The initial re-index completes without any issues but then the periodic indexer starts throwing these errors and reporting the deletions.

Until the upgrade is complete there will be no access to ArchivesSpace production so please do not attempt to access it. I will inform you when you can use AS again on Thursday. There were some minor bugs in the initial versions of AS 2.0 and these have been rectified by AS ? they had important implications for IDs throughout the system (such as any file ID) and the display of digital object links, so it was well worth delaying a little longer to get a workable system running which meets our needs. We have also been working on tidying up some hangovers from the migration from Archivists? Toolkit and upgrading the Controlled Value Lists. Following this upgrade we will do further work on the Public User Interface ? I have the earlier feedback from you and there are other changes I would like to see implemented. The PUI will only be accessible to staff at first while we test it and organise support and help resources for the wider user community.

Message-ID: Hi Bobbi, In case you want to avoid making the change via the database, I have a python script that will do what you are looking for, using a CSV as input. If you can get a list of enumeration value URIs from the database and output it to a CSV, using something like: select CONCAT('/config/enumeration_values/', ev.id) as URI , position , value from enumeration_value ev WHERE ev.enumeration_id = whatever the enumeration is for extent types in your instance you can then change the positions in the 2nd column to whatever you want, and use that CSV as the input for the script at this link: https://github.com/ucancallmealicia/archivesspace-api-public/blob/master/update_enum_val_positions.py I haven?t used this script in production, but it has worked perfectly well for me when playing around with our test data.

So if I open all the series and subseries so that I can see the list of components, control-f will search that list. If I want to search a big collection, I start opening the series from the bottom so that I don't have to wait for each series to open completely before I can click on the next one. If you have a lot of nesting, it can take a while to do this and it's easy to miss a subseries so that you are not searching whatever is in that one. For the most part, it works pretty well.

The session is limited to the first 100 participants. Please feel free to host a webinar viewing group. The webinar will be recorded and available for viewing at a later date. Webinar description: Mark Custer and Susan Pyzynski were deeply entrenched in the public interface as they led the community effort of the Public User Interface Enhancement Working Group to shape this essential access point for archival collections. Now they have moved onto their next great challenge - implementing the PUI at their own institutions. Mark and Susan will each share the strategies they have created to roll out the new PUI. Both institutions aim to be using the new PUI by early next year. Grand Valley State University has been using the ArchivesSpace PUI since 2014 and have already rolled out the new public interface. Annie Benefiel and Leigh Rupinski will share valuable insight on how the PUI has affected their day-to-day responsibilities of providing access to finding aids, as well as public reception and adapting their instruction for students and researchers. Please join us on October 26 at 1-2:30 EST as Mark, Susan, Annie, and Leigh as they share their experiences. Please feel free to bring any questions you have on the new public interface! Presenters: Mark Custer is an archivist and metadata coordinator at the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library. He has been heavily involved with the implementation of ArchivesSpace at Yale University, and he is the former chair of the ArchivesSpace Public User Interface Enhancement Project. Mark is a graduate of the School of Information Studies at Syracuse University. Susan Pyzynski is the Associate Librarian of Houghton Library for Technical Services, Harvard University. Previously, she was the Librarian for Special Collections and Digital Initiatives at Brandeis University. She is leading a project to replace Harvard's archival discovery system. Annie Benefiel is the Archivist for Collection Management at Grand Valley State University. She oversees the accessioning, processing, and preservation of archival and manuscript collections and manages metadata for archival and digital collections in the Special Collections & University Archives. Leigh Rupinski is Archivist for Public Services & Community Engagement at Grand Valley State University. She is responsible for instruction, reference, assessment, and other outreach activities for Special Collections & University Archives. Who should attend: Everyone interested in learning about the new ArchivesSpace public user interface. Questions?

The upgrading documentation at https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/UPGRADING.md explains both general and special considerations for moving from version to version. For your particular upgrade, there will be at least two steps, 1.0.9 to a version from 1.5.0 to 2.0.1 (Steve suggests a 1.5.x version will be best), then 2.2.0 to get to the most current version. With the upgrade to 2.0.1, you?ll be moving to the newer container model, and will want to pay particular attention to the information in the special upgrade instructions at https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/UPGRADING_1.5.0.md. We do maintain all of our releases on Github (https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases), so getting the intermediate releases will not be a problem. Because it?s quite a big jump, you may want to first upgrade from 1.0.9 to 1.4.2, then the 1.5.0 to 2.0.1 version of your choice to make the container management upgrade, then 2.0.1 to 2.2.0 to get to the most current version. But maybe do a trial or two of each to see which has more satisfying results. In either case, you?ll want to have your archivists check the data between upgrades to make sure that what they?re seeing is what they expect to see, and check your logs if it isn?t. You can also reach out to the program team at ArchivesSpaceHome at lyrasis.org at any point if you?d like to put in a technical support ticket for additional assistance. Please let us ? and the list ? know if you have other questions and how it goes. I?m not aware of anyone who has made the upgrade from this early a version recently, but I?m sure you?re not alone in running an older version of ArchivesSpace, so whatever is learned during your upgrade is sure to help others.

[ Is there a way to filter out the pre-releases from GitHub /releases? I don?t see anything in the API. ] I would advise migrating to 1.5.x first and verifying that the container conversion process has no errors before upgrading to 2.0 or 2.1. ( If there are any issues with the conversion, I found it somewhat more difficult to find and fix them in 2.0 than in 1.5.x ) ?

We discovered that users who have these container-related permissions (but not permissions to manage the repository) were able to navigate to the manage top containers page through their browser address bar (i.e. http://sandbox.archivesspace.org/top_containers) even if "Manage Top Containers" does not appear in the gear icon drop-down menu. At that point it become less of a blocker for people, albeit not ideal. Maybe that will work for you as well.

A bug and some improvements with the email requesting feature on the PUI were resolved in version 2.2.0, so if you upgrade to that version, if should work correctly. An improvement that was made for 2.2.0 was that if you have a contact email address in a repository record, it can be used as the email address for requests (https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/pull/979) rather than having to specify an email address separately. You will still need to enable the requesting feature and associated settings in the config file, however.

It was just meant to be a proof of concept showing how all of the request data could be sent in an email message in order to fulfill the user story about allowing researchers to make requests directly from the PUI. Hopefully others will be able to weigh in soon with more detailed instructions how to get this configured properly. I seem to remember that with the Gmail account that we used for testing, Gmail had to be told to allow the use of unsecured apps (though I?m not sure why exactly that was or might be). Just so that I?m clear, though? Lydia, Kevin: it sounds like you have it configured to receive emails okay, but the emails to whomever requested the material is not being sent/received. Is that correct?

Feel free to add to the comments if this is something you think would also be helpful to you. In general, it sounds like people may be interested in views that make it easier to see the locations for top containers, for individual containers as well as a group of containers, and there may be some differences in what is needed depending on whether or not people use the public interface. (For people who don't use the public interface, it may be that Manage Top Containers is best for that now, but it could be that something else is preferable that is only focused on location information, rather than the other functions Manage Top Containers is intended to provide.) The Staff Interface Enhancement group has been working on a variety of recommendations, which they are in the process of finalizing and expect to have ready to distribute for feedback very soon. Be looking for messages on that early in November, and feel free to provide ideas to the group at any point before or after that. The group's wiki pages start at https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ADC/pages/103454069/Staff+Interface+Enhancement+Working+Group and Lydia Tang (ltang at msu.edu ) is the leader.

The only way someone can see the Manage Top Container option through the cogwheel is if they also have a the "Manage this Repository (change groups and other settings)" box checked. This has caused us some inconvenience because if we want someone to be able to create/update/delete top containers, it stands to reason we would also like them to be able to use the Manage Top Containers tool and all its functionality. But you have to basically make them a repository manager to do so, which is a whole other layer of permissions. An issue (if it hasn't already been reported) for the Staff Interface group? I'd love to stand corrected though and learn if I am missing another obvious option here, or if there is other reasoning at work.

The session is limited to the first 100 participants. Please feel free to host a webinar viewing group. The webinar will be recorded and available for viewing at a later date. Webinar description: Mark Custer and Susan Pyzynski were deeply entrenched in the public interface as they led the community effort of the Public User Interface Enhancement Working Group to shape this essential access point for archival collections. Now they have moved onto their next great challenge ? implementing the PUI at their own institutions. Mark and Susan will each share the strategies they have created to roll out the new PUI. Both institutions aim to be using the new PUI by early next year. Grand Valley State University has been using the ArchivesSpace PUI since 2014 and have already rolled out the new public interface. Annie Benefiel and Leigh Rupinski will share valuable insight on how the PUI has affected their day-to-day responsibilities of providing access to finding aids, as well as public reception and adapting their instruction for students and researchers. Please join us on October 26 at 1-2:30 EST as Mark, Susan, Annie, and Leigh as they share their experiences. Please feel free to bring any questions you have on the new public interface! Presenters: Mark Custer is an archivist and metadata coordinator at the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library. He has been heavily involved with the implementation of ArchivesSpace at Yale University, and he is the former chair of the ArchivesSpace Public User Interface Enhancement Project. Mark is a graduate of the School of Information Studies at Syracuse University. Susan Pyzynski is the Associate Librarian of Houghton Library for Technical Services, Harvard University. Previously, she was the Librarian for Special Collections and Digital Initiatives at Brandeis University. She is leading a project to replace Harvard's archival discovery system. Annie Benefiel is the Archivist for Collection Management at Grand Valley State University. She oversees the accessioning, processing, and preservation of archival and manuscript collections and manages metadata for archival and digital collections in the Special Collections & University Archives. Leigh Rupinski is Archivist for Public Services & Community Engagement at Grand Valley State University. She is responsible for instruction, reference, assessment, and other outreach activities for Special Collections & University Archives. Who should attend: Everyone interested in learning about the new ArchivesSpace public user interface. Questions?

While I've been making incremental bug fixes along the way, the sharp-eyed archivists at Harvard's Baker Library noticed a major flaw: the plugin was not honoring the "Restrictions Apply?" flag if it was set to true. V1.5 (https://github.com/harvard-library/aspace-import-excel/releases/tag/v1.5 ) addresses that flaw, so if you are using (or planning to use) the "Restrictions Apply?" flag, please download and install this Release. Cheers, Bobbi Fox, Maintainer Library Technology Services Harvard University From: archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org [mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces at lyralists.lyrasis.org] On Behalf Of Fox, Bobbi Sent: Friday, July 14, 2017 3:44 PM To: archivesspace_users_group at lyralists.lyrasis.org Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] A plugin to support bulk uploading of Archival Objects via Excel Spreadsheet Library Technology Services, which supports the Harvard Library, is pleased to announce the availability of a new plugin, aspace-import-excel, available on GitHub at https://github.com/harvard-library/aspace-import-excel . Using the provided spreadsheet template, users can go to a Resource, and either add or insert the set of Archival Objects that have been defined in the spreadsheet. Please note carefully the following paragraph in the README: The intention is not to completely reproduce a Finding Aid as presented in an EAD XML, or to allow for every permutation of Archival Object creation within ArchivesSpace. We are aiming for the "80% rule"; that is, at least 80% of the work that would be done interactively can be replaced by an excel spreadsheet; additional refinements to individual archival objects (such as addition of agents-as-subjects, assignment of locations to top-level containers, etc.) would take place interactively. Installation information is on the main README file, with User Documentation at https://github.com/harvard-library/aspace-import-excel/blob/master/user_documentation/USER_DOCUMENTATION.md , including workflow, step by step usage, and extensive (exhaustive? :-) explanation of the Spreadsheet Template. This plugin was designed to aid the Harvard Library archival community, but we hope that it may be useful to other archivists in the ArchivesSpace community. Pull requests welcome. If you encounter problems, please create an issue on the GitHub repository. Cheers, Bobbi Fox, Maintainer -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

In-Reply-To: References: , Message-ID: All, Following up on this thread, I can say a bit more here about the Yale Payments Module plugin, as I was the lead person for delineating the functional requirements. The spec that Mary shared is still mostly up-to-date, but the plugin has evolved a bit since then. The most recent release (https://github.com/hudmol/payments_module/releases/tag/v2.1.x-1.2), for example, re-orders some of the fields based on our experience of using the plugin for a few years, makes a few other cosmetic changes, and most importantly changes the amount fields from text to decimal. It also requires ASpace 2.0 or higher. The basic data model that any accession may have zero or one payment summary record. That payment summary record has three fields: Total Price, Currency, and an ?In Lot? Boolean (which we use to designate when an accession represents more than one line item from an invoice, or when one line item from an invoice has been split into multiple accessions). Each payment summary may have zero or more payment records associated with it. Each payment record may contain the following fields: Payment Date, Invoice Number, Fund Code, Amount, USD Equivalent Amount, Authorizer [meaning which curator OKed the payment], and Note. We often pay for significant purchases in installments, or pay for single purchases on multiple funds, hence the need to record multiple payments. All fields in the payment summary and the payment record are optional. I should note that the Payment Module plugin also adds several fields to advanced search, like Fund Code, Payment Date, and Invoice Number. Circling back to using ASpace for rare book accessions, a former colleague and I put a lot of thought into how we might do that. We have a large volume of rare book accessioning and ultimately that effort got shelved, but we did give it a lot of thought, and even developed some plugins to support it, most notably the OCLC record importer ( https://github.com/hudmol/aspace_oclc) and a modified import map for MARCXML to Acessions (https://github.com/hudmol/yale_marcxml2accession_extras). We have never used these in production and so I?m certain they would need to be updated before use with the current version of ASpace. Basically we mapped our current dbText-based book accessioning db to ASpace with a mix of regular and user defined fields. From a data perspective it would have worked fine ? for us the challenge was the feeling that the ASpace interface wouldn?t be sufficiently flexible or efficient to represent an improvement over the currently used system. But if you have a more modest volume of rare book accessions, I?m certain ASpace can be adapted to the task. Happy to answer more questions or chat offline if that would be helpful.

This page (down at the bottom) gives a visual of the plugin interface: https://guides.library.yale.edu/archivesspace/ArchivesSpaceAccessioning Yale might have some documentation on the development process/spec that would give the data model details... which would be nicer than pouring over the code...

Dear ArchivesSpace members, I am writing to report on the ArchivesSpace Governance Board 1st Quarter meeting, which was held in Chicago on Sept 8th. We were pleased to welcome new board members: * Nicholas Zmijewski, Industrial Archives & Library, representing the very small membership level * Peter Carini, Dartmouth College, representing the medium membership level * Gordon Daines, Brigham Young University, representing the large membership level * Tammy Dearie, University of California, San Diego, replacing Brian Schottlaender who retired in July We reviewed the continued dedicated work of the Technical Advisory Council and User Advisory Council and thank the members for their strong participation. The operations update highlighted progress in development, especially the contributions from several ArchivesSpace member institutions that sponsored or contributed important functionality. The board is also encouraged by the creation of and continued progress by the core committers group. The board is making progress on several important foundation documents. Work continues on the bylaws review and the organizational home agreement. In addition the board is working on reviewing and updating a mission statement, guiding principles and financial reserve policy. An updated membership agreement policy was approved. We are also initiating a review of the Registered Service Provider (RSP) program to ensure it meets the needs of ArchivesSpace members and other users. In closing, I am very happy to report that the ArchivesSpace membership organization continues to be vital and growing, with members making contributions to all facets of the program. The Board welcomes your communications and comments. Thank you for your continuing support and ongoing participation in the community we have created together. Respectfully, Carol A.
