Hi Molly,

You might consider reaching out to the Durham County Library's North Carolina Collection (ncc at dconc.gov<mailto:ncc at dconc.gov>). While I was working there we developed an in-house Access database to track circulation stats for our materials for the same reasons you've listed.

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] using barcodes to track usage

Hi all,

I work for a small archives that is part of a public library system. We want to create a simple way to track what boxes are pulled for the Reading Room using the barcodes that are part of the top container subrecord . We don't require people to register to use our archives so a product like Aeon is way too sophisticated for our needs. Additionally, for privacy reason we don't want to track specific user information. We just want to be able to pull basic information such as accession number, collection title and top container information into a database when the barcode is scanned. Before I talk to our IT department I wanted to check to see if anyone has already built at tool like this for their repository?

Thank you,
