[Archivesspace_Users_Group] ArchivesSpace Integrations Wish List

[Olivia S Solis]

Hi all,

So this is probably hyperspecific to our needs, but

1) Islandora integration that can deal with a very detailed MODS form. We
are aware that there is an existing module, but it uses the ASpace fields
to populate Islandora (at least when we tested it), and our Islandora XML
form is way more complex than ASpace.

2) I manage taxonomy lists with both local and external controlled
vocabularies outside ASpace, as they apply to both ASpace and Islandora.
I'm not sure how unique we are. Eventually, I will want to publish to iQVoc
or some taxonomy management system. integration with that system would be
great so that I could post new subject/agent terms to ASpace with the click
of a button. (This may be too nebulous)

3) In the mean time, I'm managing them in Google Sheets, temporarily
assigning local terms a local identifier (until we can get them URIs). It
would be great to have some kind of CSV uploader for new subject/agent
records, one that would spit back the ASpace ID so I could easily add them
to the existing Google Sheets lists.

Thanks,
Olivia
