For us, we want to be able to:
* create holdings and items in Alma, from ArchivesSpace, using existing Top Container metadata; * compare MARC records for a Resource between the two systems, and push to/pull from Alma as needed to keep metadata in sync; and * compare item-level metadata between the two systems, and eventually to push to/pull from Alma as needed to keep inventory records in sync In general we want to keep archival description work in ArchivesSpace and use the APIs to update Alma, instead of having to train archivists on metadata management in two different systems. This way only the folks who do manuscripts and special collections cataloging need to work with the Alma metadata editor directly. I'd be interested to hear others' ideas! -k ________________________________ From: archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org <archivesspace_users_group-boun...@lyralists.lyrasis.org> on behalf of Megan Firestone <mbla...@stedwards.edu> Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2018 9:27:21 AM To: Archivesspace Users Group Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Alma Integration Hi, It's exciting to see so many interested. To help develop the conversation, what type of functionality would you like to see in an integration between Alma and ArchivesSpace?

At Rutgers earlier this year we developed a reference architecture for our Special Collections. We tested the reference architecture by creating an implementation architecture using Alma, Primo, ArchiveSpace and a generic repository framework. In June we migrated to Alma so we will be looking to integrate ArchiveSpace with Alma in the near future using our the reference architecture as a blue print. I’ll see if I can share that reference architecture with the group.
