This document shows how EAD tags are represented in the ArchivesSpace back end.

Interestingly, there are already "if" and "else" conditions written into the map. For example, if is found nested within tags, it corresponds to the "resource.title" element, but if it's nested within tags, it corresponds to "archival_object.title"

I've added the code for our EAD db converter to github at https://github.com/umd-lib/ead-db-convert . This is the program which we use to extract the data from the beast MS Access database and output the EAD.

@jennielevineknies, if you get a chance would you mind adding a README.md for the ead-db-converter code?
