<br>
This minor release fixes a bug introduced in 2.4.0 that affected searching by date in the public user interface. Thank you to Mark Custer for identifying the issue so that our developers could quickly address it. The release also contains two community contributions
 related to the backend, for which we thank James Bullen and Chris Fitzpatrick.<br>

Information on upgrading to a new version of ArchivesSpace is available at </span>

 . If you have not yet upgraded to 2.4.0, we recommend going directly to 2.4.1. Also, if you are not currently using the public user interface, you may want to skip this release and wait for our next, larger release, which we expect to come in late July. The
 fixes in this release will also be included in that one.<br>
<br>
The deadline to submit community pull requests for consideration for the July 2018 release is July 20. Pull requests submitted after July 20 will be considered for a future release.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
