<p class="MsoNormal">Ah, I see. We use METS to make page-turned digital objects for folders or boxes (thus our digital objects usually correspond to our physical units and our unit of description). If we digitize (rarely) one item out of a folder, we will
create a child archival object and so the digital object is a digital instance of that child archival object. We do not have to attach tens, hundreds, or thousands of digital files to an archival object.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We basically do the same at Kate, but we’ve also unpublished all our DAOs at the moment while we revisit how best to provide a linkage. The item-level records in the digital repository vs the folder-level info in ASpace meant that ASpace
object page/display for that folder would potentially have tens of digital objects (or more than 100, for some photo albums), which would list in a loooong column that users had to scroll and scroll and scroll to view.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our digital repository UI developer had a heart attack looking at it and agreed to work with me to revise how the systems interact.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We don’t use AS for doing much with digital objects except to provide links to access objects in our digital repository and sometimes provide thumbnails. Our METS and MODS are all made elsewhere and stored in our digital repository along
with the objects, so AS is not our tool for these functions.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">New ArchivesSpace user here. I've inherited a nicely populated AS with plenty of digital objects, but wanted to send out some feelers to get an idea of how others are using digital objects in AS. We have a separate digital repository, so
there is redundancy, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to move forward. <o:p></o:p></p>
