[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Webinar Tomorrow: Is It Roy E. Harrington or Roy S. Harrington?: How to Make Technology Work for You In an ArchivesSpace Data Cleanup Project

[Jessica Crouch]

Dear ArchivesSpace Users,

ArchivesSpace will be offering another webinar focusing on ArchivesSpace data cleanup projects that can be accomplished in a work from home environment tomorrow, July 8, at 2pm ET. Most of us are doing our jobs under much different conditions than usual. As a browser-based system you can access from anywhere, ArchivesSpace is a tool that can be used when working remotely and many ArchivesSpace users are finding themselves executing large scale data cleanup projects that have only recently been prioritized.

Title:  Is It Roy E. Harrington or Roy S. Harrington?: How to Make Technology Work for You In an ArchivesSpace Data Cleanup Project
When: July 8, 2020
Time: 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. ET (11:00 a.m. – 12:00pm PT)
Where: Zoom

Webinar description:
This webinar will be recorded and made available on the ArchivesSpace YouTube channel.
Three processing archivists from the Rockefeller Archive Center will discuss collaborative approaches to mass data cleanup in ArchivesSpace. Presenters will share how they planned, reassessed, and executed various automated and manual processes for enhancing the quality of their institution’s descriptive data. This data includes agent records, dates, and access restriction notes. This discussion is based off of the RAC ArchivesSpace Cleanup blog series<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__blog.rockarch.org_archivesspace-2Dclean-2Dup-2Dan-2Doutline&d=DwMGaQ&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=_iPtfI-oh6gC_Z6tmJI1y6Av--PwfhAF74rQK6DKyO4&m=rkbdEOey751wPdeeiUaVeHfOfTPgjCT1n8tjVawFJks&s=JIymM-sIL0iKj421Nbo-4zA_l-JTWQUbMHdmXt-vxvc&e=>.
