[Archivesspace_Users_Group] ArchivesSpace Resources for Researchers

[Newhouse, Sarah]

Hi Gwenlyn,

At my previous institution, we migrated to the ASpace PUI during the pandemic shut down, and so made a tutorial video/webinar about the new interface (instead of doing in person training sessions and other outreach). There's stuff I would definitely change about it, but for a semi-hastily put together 20 minute overview of "what is a finding aid?" + "how do I find the stuff?" I think it's okay.

(I am very nervous about posting that link to this group, but I hope it's helpful!)

Hello,

My name is Gwen Coddington and I am the archivist at McDaniel College.

I was wondering if anyone had any good resources or tutorials they've used with researchers to explain how to navigate ArchivesSpace? I'm finding a lot of researchers, particularly those who don't spend time online, are overwhelmed by the system. Any advice in this area would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Gwen Coddington
