 most complex work relates to new functionality using the previously unused Make Representative button. Based on a<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-fi-1jpE7GqWc0zWxWsRO9zgRmR1vFFygp6jGnKh23k/edit?usp=sharing"><span style="color:black;text-decoration:none">

 section added to the "pill" for resource records in the public interface when there is digital content within the resource; breadcrumbs that make the context for linked digital objects easier to see in result displays; and a more recognizable generic button

 URIs in EAD exports; more attractive print displays for records, including accessions; a new CSV import for standalone subjects; internal note fields for top containers and container profiles; and the elimination of a bug that caused hover text for the Help
