<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">We have an accession that was purchased, not donated. From the accession record, I want to link to the agent record using a role of "Source" and relator of "Seller."<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">"Seller" wasn't in the drop menu and "Donor" isn't appropriate. "Bookseller" was on the list, but these are papers, not books.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The hover text for the relator term says to see the MARC Code List for Relators. (<a href="http://www.loc.gov/marc/relators/relaterm.html">http://www.loc.gov/marc/relators/relaterm.html</a>)
"Seller" is on that list, so it is valid to add to the ArchivesSpace drop menu.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">I tried to add Seller to the controlled value list for Linked Agent Archival Record Relators. When I selected Create Value, it prompted me to input a value, but no translation.
I input the value "sll" from the MARC Code List. Now, however, both the value and translation are listed as "sll" with no apparent means to change the translation to "Seller."<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">I am tempted to delete that and add Seller as the value, so it will also be the translation that displays to staff and the public, but I know that is the wrong solution.
The existing values all use the MARC 3-letter codes, and the existing translations all use the natural language terms. I would think that I should be able to follow that established pattern.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
