We need to add an about page similar to the one for Aeon.

Please work with Lyrasis to determine whether this page can live within the ArchivesSpace webpages with a header/footer that matches other pages on the site.

The text on the page should be as follows:

About ArchivesSpace ArchivesSpace is an open source archives information management application designed to manage information about special collections material such as archives, manuscripts and digital objects.

ArchivesSpace provides centralized access to detailed descriptions of archival and manuscript collections held in various repositories at Emory. Finding aids describe our unique primary resources and help researchers determine if collections contain material of interest to them and exactly where that material is located. ArchivesSpace includes finding aids for both processed and unprocessed collections at the Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library, the Emory University Archives, Oxford College Archives, Woodruff Health Sciences Center Library Historical Collections, Pitts Theology Library Special Collections and Archives and the Emory Law School Archives.

Accessibility

Emory Libraries is committed to the principles of universal design and strives to provide equitable services online and in our spaces. We assess and enhance the usability and accessibility of our digital interfaces on an ongoing basis, and use Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act and current WCAG AA standards as benchmarks. For further information, please use our feedback form or consult Emory’s Department of Accessibility Services.

Questions, Help, and Feedback

Please visit our Help & Contacts page for more information about Emory Libraries collections and access.

@CB987 I see two issues in the above: In the second paragraph there is a stray \ in the second sentence: "Finding\aids describe". There's also an underline under Stuart A. Rose Manuscript (the link in the same paragraph). Not sure if this is due to the screenshot or if it's an error. The rest looks great for basic text; styling to follow https://app.zenhub.com/workspaces/archivesspace-63122393d517dc001c3ceb07/issues/gh/emory-libraries/aspace/18 I assume.

Got it! Will fix those and yes, styling incoming. Thanks!

Fixed the stray . You are right about the underlining; it was just bc of the screenshot. Those links will each underline on hover, but none of them are underlined if not.
