<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; ">I am working on preparing our content in Archon for migration to ArchivesSpace. Let me preface my question by saying that I’m stepping in because we are between Archon managers, and I am quite
rusty on a lot of this. It has also been many years since I worked with EAD, and we don’t ever export our Archon finding aids to EAD, so there may be some things that need standardization.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; ">I’m on step 4 – Level/Container Manager. We have about 30 different Level/Container types, and it doesn’t seem to be consistent as to whether they were marked as Intellectual Level or Physical
Container when they were created.<span> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span>Other than the default types.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; ">1. Can I assume that most created Level/Container types should probably just be checked off as Physical Containers because they’re not part of the intellectual hierarchical structure of a finding

<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; ">2. There are a number of Level/Container types where I’m not sure what they were created for (Room? Track?) I wanted to search Archon for the actual content that was described by these mysterious Level/Container
types, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to do that. Should I just assume that these are Physical Containers?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
