<p class="MsoNormal">Hi, <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m in the process of retrospectively adding top containers to all of our 800,000+ archival objects. A large number of our collections are in volume format, housed on shelves as is, not in boxes. I’m wondering how folks are handling these
types of “containers” in AS. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just for an example, the Jared Sparks papers consists of 10 individual volumes, which if these were boxes, of course would be Boxes 1-10. However, the material is a two part series, each consisting of 5 volumes each and referred to on spines
as volumes 1-5 (1<sup>st</sup> series) and another volumes 1-5 (2<sup>nd</sup> series). I’m disinclined to give them top containers Volumes 1-10 and I don’t want to have two Volume 1 Top Containers in the same collection. Any advise on how to make this clear
to users and manageable on the back end?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance, <u></u><u></u></p>
