EAD from AT and/or AS? #55

Open MicheleCombs opened 8 years ago

MicheleCombs commented 8 years ago

Just out of curiosity, have we tested the migration style sheets on EAD that comes out of Archivists Toolkit or ArchiveSpace? Until AT (or AS) natively outputs EAD3, people may want to output them and convert them.

Apologies if this has already been discussed.

Michele,

I've been testing the stylesheets against random samples from the ArchiveGrid dataset. I'm assuming that at least some of those (if not many of the XSD valid ones) were produced by AT/ASpace. Related, it's been on my agenda to do a more focussed testing of ASpace generated EAD2002 instances for the ASpace Technical Advisory Committee with an eye towards figuring out what to do get ASpace to output EAD3 natively. The first sub-task on that agenda is to accumulate some EAD2002 from AT and ASpace. Would you have any to share?

Our University Archives uses AT. I can ask them to export a bunch of EAD files and send them to you. How many would you like? And are there any options for the AT export that they should set or not set?

@MicheleCombs FWIW we have been testing the migration style sheet on Yale coming out of ASpace and it's been fine. I'd be surprised if there were major issues with finding aids coming out of either ASpace or AT.
