<p class="MsoPlainText">Hi, Sibyl,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">I will need to discuss with the User Advisory Council and Chris F., but if we hold to our plan to address import / exports and reporting systematically, then we will not be able to address location revisions before early in the Fall.
Of course, we, and particularly some of the persons on this thread, could start drafting and refining a specification, much as Ben suggested, I believe.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Archivists' Toolkit and ArchivesSpace both share a similar model:
<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">

<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo2">
<![if !supportLists]><span style="font-family:Symbol"><span style="mso-list:Ignore">·<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">
</span></span></span><![endif]>The container record can then be linked to a location record.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The bit difference between AT and ArchivesSpace currently is how the container is linked to a location. In AT it is done using the Location Management function in which only the primary container is linked to a location:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><img width="490" height="617" id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.jpg@01CF8BCE.06907CD0"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Whereas in ArchivesSpace there is not a similar location management function and, thus, each container record is assigned a location:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><img width="540" height="536" id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.jpg@01CF8BCE.06907CD0"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Adding to ArchivesSpace a location management function like that in the AT would likely make location management much more efficient in ArchivesSpace. But what else is needed or wanted? Are the “group” boxes Kate describes accommodated?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">BTW, both the AT and ArchivesSpace model support barcodes for containers and barcodes for locations, and ArchivesSpace supports distinguishing current and previous location assignments.
