Hello, all, This message may be of interest to those who use, or are considering, the aspace-import-excel plugin (https://github.com/harvard-library/aspace-import-excel).
Tufts University Digital Collections and Archives is pleased to announce the release of a new version of the aspace-import-excel plugin, with the enhancements listed below. This work was funded by Tufts Digital Collections and Archives, with specifications and testing coordinated by Tufts Collection Management Archivist Adrienne Pruitt and all development work performed by Bobbi Fox. Enhancements: * Ability to turn 'publish' off/on individually for all notes (if not filled in: default to resource's publish switch) * Ability to import agents in as creator, source, and subject, with all available relators, and not just as creators. (If empty/missing, default is 'creator', as it is now) * Ability to add more agents per object by extending the spreadsheet * Ability to import more than one date per object * Ability for an archival object to have multiple physical instances * Ability for an archival object to have multiple extents To take advantage of these features, you must use an extended version of the Excel Spreadsheet template. There is extensive User Documentation describing use of the template and the new features. This version is backward compatible; you may continue to use the original spreadsheet template for those occasions where your workflow doesn't need these enhancements. The release can found at https://github.com/tufts-digital-collections-archives/aspace-import-excel/releases/tag/v3.0.1 In GitHub speak, this is a "fork" (deviation) from the original aspace-import-excel plugin maintained by the Harvard Library. We have issued a GitHub "pull request" -- a request that these changes be integrated into the Harvard Library repository -- so that any further work be concentrated in one repository. If that request is successful, another message will be sent. In the meantime, if you need technical help or notice a problem, please email [email protected]. Cheers, Adrienne Pruitt, Tufts University Digital Collections and Archives Bobbi Fox, maintainer of aspace-import-excel Adrienne Pruitt | Collections Management Archivist Digital Collections and Archives Tufts University [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> |617-627-0957
