The plugin adds an "Onsite?" checkbox to every location, with the default value being set to True. And once you start flipping some locations to Onsite = False, then information is stored in the index to indicate whether the Resource and Archival Object and Top Container records are stored onsite or offsite. And since Resource and Archival Objects can be linked to multiple top containers, those records can have a hybrid status. So, that's why we now have a facet for "Storage Location", as seen in the attached image. We haven't really highlighted this new feature to users yet, but I am very interested in seeing how it gets used over time. <o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">We also talked about adding a feature in the staff interface to calculate a note for the collection to indicate which boxes were onsite vs. offsite based on this information, like the "Calculate Date / Extent" function, but didn't wind up adding that to the plugin, although I still like the idea. <o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">And Olivia, since I was still interested in adding such a note to our EAD, even after all these years (has it been over three years?<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Segoe UI Emoji", sans-serif;">🙂</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">), I did update our EAD3 export option to include the location information in our EAD files. I did not go with a physloc note, since I agree with you that it would look horrible having that information repeat everywhere if it were to display in the finding aid, so I went with an option of adding the location URI fragment into an attribute on each container element that is associated with an ASpace location record. Then, since we know which locations that we consider to be onsite vs. offsite, our nightly export process will add a note to each finding aid in the EAD3 control section. Here's an example: <a href="https://github.com/YaleArchivesSpace/Archives-at-Yale-EAD3/blob/5734391e95a954a99cb03ee54282fd14d028c8e3/brbl-ead/10764.xml#L34-L41" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">https://github.com/YaleArchivesSpace/Archives-at-Yale-EAD3/blob/5734391e95a954a99cb03ee54282fd14d028c8e3/brbl-ead/10764.xml#L34-L41</a> We aren't using that note for anything right now, but I think that it could be useful for creating our MARC holdings records, as well as for adding to our PDF finding aids, etc. But right now, it's just there so that staff could potentially use it to review and see if it looks like things are assigned as expected.<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Mark<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><hr size="2" width="98%" align="center"></div><div id="divRplyFwdMsg"><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><b><span style="">From:</span></b><span style=""><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces@lyralists.lyrasis.org" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">archivesspace_users_group-bounces@lyralists.lyrasis.org</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><<a href="mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces@lyralists.lyrasis.org" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">archivesspace_users_group-bounces@lyralists.lyrasis.org</a>> on behalf of Pruitt, Adrienne <<a href="mailto:Adrienne.Pruitt@tufts.edu" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">Adrienne.Pruitt@tufts.edu</a>><br><b>Sent:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Tuesday, January 26, 2021 3:52 PM<br><b>To:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Archivesspace Users Group <<a href="mailto:archivesspace_users_group@lyralists.lyrasis.org" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">archivesspace_users_group@lyralists.lyrasis.org</a>><br><b>Subject:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Offsite boxes and ASpace</span><o:p></o:p></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></div></div></div><div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hello, all,<o:p></o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></div></div><div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This question - of making onsite/offsite locations visible to users - has come up at Tufts, and it looks like Yale, at least, has solved it.

I don’t think that there’s a good EAD solution, unless you implement a specific way to use the physloc note, as you mentioned, but even then you’ve got to do some grouping since those boxes are often repeated in a finding aid, and any top-level, auto-generated note should be easy to read.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Here’s what I’d like our ASpace PUI site to have (eventually):<o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><ul type="disc" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in;"><li class="xxmsolistparagraph" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">We could configure which locations are offsite (for us, we’d just need to add 3 location IDs to an array of offsite locations). In the future, though, it would be nice if you could use the Location module in ASpace to designate this rather than doing it in a configuration file; and anything that’s not tagged as being offsite would then be inferred to be on site.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsolistparagraph" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Each top-container landing page would have an automatically generated note indicating that the materials were stored offsite and requires X amount of time to retrieve (and, of course, the part about how long it would take would need to be configurable, as well)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsolistparagraph" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Each archival object, accession, and resource associated via an instance with one of those top containers would have the same message.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsolistparagraph" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">We’d also have 2 facets to indicate onsite vs. offsite (or, available today vs. needs X amount of lead time, whatever would make the most sense). How handy would that be to exclude “offsite” archival components if you’re only going to be in town for a day or two?<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xxmsolistparagraph" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">If a resource or accession had any offsite material attached to it, then an auto-generated note would display at the top level description, indicating as much (e.g. Boxes 1-3 and 5 in this collection require five business days to retrieve, upon receipt of request)<o:p></o:p></li></ul><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">All that said, it would be great to have the same info available in the staff interface, too.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Have any other institutions tackled this problem already? For now, we really only indicate this by manually adding notes to our MARC Holdings records, and I’d love not to repeat that practice in our finding aids for the reasons you mentioned, Olivia.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Mark<o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><b>From:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces@lyralists.lyrasis.org" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">archivesspace_users_group-bounces@lyralists.lyrasis.org</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>[<a href="mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces@lyralists.lyrasis.org" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">mailto:archivesspace_users_group-bounces@lyralists.lyrasis.org</a>]<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><b>On Behalf Of<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>Olivia S Solis<br><b>Sent:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Friday, 17 November, 2017 12:39 PM<br><b>To:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Archivesspace Users Group <<a href="mailto:archivesspace_users_group@lyralists.lyrasis.org" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;">archivesspace_users_group@lyralists.lyrasis.org</a>><br><b>Subject:</b><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Offsite boxes and ASpace<o:p></o:p></p><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="xxmsonormal" style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">We're trying to figure out a situation that can't be uncommon. We've got a lot of onsite boxes. We've got a lot of offsite boxes. Researchers need to request offsite boxes a week in advance. Many of our collections have nebulous access restrictions like, "Portions of this collection are stored offsite".
