Oooooo. Good to know Mark. This is actually for our future planning after our 
migration and upgrade. I would be particularly helpful to link our containers 
in an EAD import.

Yep, you can certainly do this, but just be careful, since the following two 
containers will be imported as two different top containers (and there's no way 
to merge top containers in the staff interface):

<container type="box" label="mixed_materials (D0123456$)">1</container>
...
<container type="box" label="mixed_materials">1</container>

But as long as the barcodes are added to every instance of "box 1" in the EAD, 
you should be good to go.

Additionally, if you already have container profiles in ArchivesSpace, and you 
want/need to link or re-link those at the same time as an EAD import, you can 
add the container profile name to the altrender attribute on a container 
element like so:

<container type="box" label="mixed_materials (D0123456$)" altrender="flat box 
(16d 1h 20w)">1</container>

Hi Suzanne,

You can import barcodes from EAD by including the barcode value in parenthesis 
inside of the container/@label attribute.

For example:
<container type="box" label="mixed_materials (D0123456$)">1</container>

In the Preview of 1.5.0 webinar, someone mentioned being able to add the 
barcode field through EAD. They said you could put the barcode in parenthesis 
in the container label section. Can anyone show me a snippet of what this looks 
like?

Thank you,

Suzanne
