<p dir="ltr">I'm wary of making descriptive choices based on how they display, for a number of reasons based on principle and experience.</p>
<p dir="ltr">One feature of the PUI enhancements that I think is particularly great is the ability to display metadata inherited down through the descriptive hierarchy. This seems like it would be an ideal place for similar inheritance. I haven't personally worked with the new PUI enough to know if or how it's possible, though.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">We are struggling with the same issue. I’m thinking of putting a note in the digital object record that says, “see finding aid for full description.” You know
 how when you shop online and there is a checkbox to use the same address for billing and shipping? I wish we had that here to use the same description/title/etc. for the digital object and associated resource. To make matters worse, putting the objects in
 another system means we have to put the data in a third place. We’re using the Connecticut Digital Archives (CTDA) and I have tried exporting MODS from ArchivesSpace and importing it there, but it doesn’t work properly. I haven’t come up with a good solution,
 and I am very interested in hearing suggestions too. Thanks very much for bringing it up.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

 an instance, where do you tend to put the bulk of the descriptive metadata?  Or do you duplicate notes and/or children in both the DO and the resource record?  How about DO’s dates?  Do you tend to record only the date the digital object was created or the
 dates of the digitized materials within as well?<u></u><u></u></span></p>

 in both the finding aid and the digital object record.  Anyone care to share what you do in this area?<u></u><u></u></span></p>
