[Archivesspace_Users_Group] FW: normalization in ArchivesSpace

[Hoffner, Bailey E.]

Hello All,

One of our catalogers noticed an issue with search functionality and normalization (see below). Has anyone dealt with this issue before, or know of a workaround?

Thanks!

Subject: normalization in ArchiveSpace

Searching for a term such as “Governors’” yields no hits if you spell it as “Governor’s”.  both terms should normalize to “Governors”, but it’s possible the latter is normalizing to “Governor s”

"Books constitute capital. A library book lasts as long as a house, for hundreds of years. It is not, then, an article of mere consumption but fairly of capital, and often in the case of professional men, setting out in life, it is their only capital." -- Thomas Jefferson
