Webinar description:
Do you find the data model of ArchivesSpace different than how you're used to 
thinking of finding aids, and you can't quite put your finger on why? Have you 
heard words like "normalized" and "atomized" and wondered how and why they 
apply to archival data? Do concepts built into ASpace, like archival objects 
and top containers, seem a bit too unfamiliar to build confidence in your 
understanding of them? These are some of the areas that will be explored as we 
trace the evolution of the finding aid from a static, singular document into a 
collection of linked data points.

In this webinar, Valerie Addonizio will explain the ways that description, both 
legacy and new, has evolved, especially as it relates to the way information is 
stored and displayed in ArchivesSpace. A particular focus will be placed on the 
concepts underlying some of the less intuitive features of ASpace, such as 
archival objects and container modeling.

Presenters:
Valerie Addonizio (Description Management Archivist, Johns Hopkins University) 
is an archivist at Johns Hopkins University whose primary responsibility is 
managing and correcting legacy data and maintaining physical control for all 
archival holdings. She was tasked with migrating from Archivists' Toolkit to 
ArchivesSpace from 2015 to 2016. Prior experience at Princeton University 
Libraries introduced her to the atomization of EAD, and further eye-opening 
experiences with the ASpace API led her to develop an API training workshop 
with Lora Woodford. Valerie hopes to leverage her experience learning these 
concepts to help narrow the sometimes scary gap between archivists and the 
technologies they rely on.

Who should attend:
Everyone interested in learning how collection management and description has 
evolved throughout the profession and how the core features and functionalities 
in ArchivesSpace relate to that evolution. This webinar will be specifically 
geared to individuals navigating the change between legacy practices and 
evolving data models.
