<b>Subject:</b> [Archivesspace_member_reps] Migrating Data from Eloquent Systems to ArchivesSpace<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am under significant time constraints to move my data from Eloquent Systems to ArchivesSpace as my contract with Eloquent is over effective April 30. I was led to believe that my data could be exported in EAD format. Unfortunately, that
is not true. I can only export my data into ASCII delimited text format. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am flying blind here and I know there is not an easy "fix." If I need to manually input my records, then I need to start doing that right away. If there is a way to convert ASCII into a workable migration format, then I need advise on
how to accomplish that conversion. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some background: earlier in the year, my IT Director told me he had figured out how to do this migration. He has resigned taking that information with him although I am not sure that he actually
<u>had</u> figured it out.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am willing to do the work. I just need a process.<u></u><u></u></p>
