[Archivesspace_Users_Group] [External] Folder labels from ArchivesSpace collections

Tue May 16 13:38:41 EDT 2023

Hi Miloche,

Thank you, that software is very versatile.

I've also learned, thanks to a colleague pointing it out in the
documentation, that the container label plugin can do subcontainer levels,
requiring top containers to be associated with these subcontainers.

Are there other tools people are using for theirs labels?

Best,
Paul
