<a href="https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases/tag/v1.4.0" target="_blank" id="LPlnk624574">
version 1.4.0.</a><br>
<br>
This release includes solutions to the rendering (<a href="https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1183">AR-1311</a>) and<br>
re-ordering (<a href="https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1183">AR-1183</a>) performance problems that many users reported.<br>
These solutions were distributed in two release candidates in late<br>
August, and received approval from several users.<br>
<br>
This release also includes several new features: an enhanced interface<br>
to the LCNAF plugin that makes it easier to scan and identify<br>
authority records for import; ability to see how many times and where<br>
a controlled value term has been applied; ability to set a default<br>
order for notes in the resource and digital object modules; and the<br>
ability to record extent statements in the Rapid Date Entry template<br>
in the resource module.<br>
<br>
Please see the <a href="http://archivesspace.github.io/archivesspace/">technical documentation

Please see the <a href="https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/releases">

bug fixes included in this release.<br>
