Application Overview
• Open source, relational database application to support archival processing and production of access instruments
• Promote data standardization– Based on DACS, ISARR (CPF)– Exports EAD, MARCXML, METS (containing MODS or DC)
• Promote efficiency– Integrate range of archival functions– Repurpose data—multiple outputs from data recorded– Automate encoding and reporting
• Lower training costs

Phase 1 Summary
• Started June 15, 2004 & concluded 31 January 2007
• Key objectives targeted were:
– Recording accession, description, and location information for resources, as well as name and subject authorities, and
– Exporting EAD 2002, MARCXML, METS (MODS / DC), and 30 different administrative and descriptive reports, such as acquisition statistics, accession records, shelf lists, subject guides, etc.;
– With support for importing legacy data in EAD, MARCXML, and, for accessions, tab-delimited formats; customizing the interface; managing a broad range of user types; and
– implementation as a stand-alone or networked application.

Implementation
• 36 respondents to a survey conducted Feb. 19-March 9, 2007 among ATUG-l members
• 60% installed AT as a network app, while 48% installed as a stand alone
• 80% installed the AT as a test app, while 35% installed as production app
• 32 respondents reported using MySQL as a backend, while one brave soul reported using MS SQLServer
• 94 % installed the client on a Windows machine, 14% on a Linux machine, and 11% on a MAC machine
• For network installations, 60% installed on a Windows server, 30% on a Linux server, 5% on a MAC server, a small percentage on other servers.

AT Working Group
1. with library IT, to test installation and scalability of AT
2. further investigate AT functionality and develop recommendations for Harvard-specific development
3. recommend administrative rights (security) and functionality to be centrally controlled

AT Working Group
4. investigate issues of importing legacy data (collection management as well as descriptive data)
5. investigate the diversity of workflows, processes, and procedures in Harvard archival repositories and determine how well the AT accommodates them

AT Working Group
1. with library IT, to test installation and scalability of AT• Oracle installation up and running• 12 repositories / 25-ish total at Harvard• 75 user accounts, about 40 people• Want to ingest about 75-100K MARC records
and 2000+ EAD finding aids
![Page 48: Here Is View Using The Search Query Function To Find All Collections That Deal With Textile](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052600/5579a95fd8b42ac1148b4cef/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Working closely with colleagues...

AT Working Group
2. further investigate AT functionality and develop recommendations for Harvard-specific development• Interface with Harvard library catalogs (ILS,
archival inventories, images)• Add functionality for ease-of-use (to be fully
identified in wide-scale testing)
![Page 50: Here Is View Using The Search Query Function To Find All Collections That Deal With Textile](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052600/5579a95fd8b42ac1148b4cef/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

AT Working Group
3. recommend administrative rights (security) and functionality to be centrally controlled• Central AT administration will be level 5• Each repository will have a level 4 liaison• Below that, details to be worked out in wide-
scale end-user testing• Are the remaining 4 levels enough?
![Page 52: Here Is View Using The Search Query Function To Find All Collections That Deal With Textile](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052600/5579a95fd8b42ac1148b4cef/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Pull in legacy data...

AT Working Group
4. investigate issues of ingesting legacy data (collection management as well as descriptive data)• Have not successfully sent a finding aid on a
round-trip from, and back to, our local system• We know we will want central support for
ingest of accession data
![Page 54: Here Is View Using The Search Query Function To Find All Collections That Deal With Textile](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052600/5579a95fd8b42ac1148b4cef/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

5. investigate the diversity of workflows, processes, & procedures in Harvard archival repositories and determine how well the AT accommodates them• Needs wide-scale end-user testing• Working Group members have already
identified some issues in their own repositories

Division of labor (not final!)
Consortium Responsibilities : Central• Create and manage the database (.25 FTE “IT”
guy)• Create central "Super user" with highest security
level• Create “stub” records for repositories
![Page 58: Here Is View Using The Search Query Function To Find All Collections That Deal With Textile](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052600/5579a95fd8b42ac1148b4cef/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Consortium Responsibilities : Central• Identify and train liaison for each repository• Create user accounts for these liaisons: second-highest security level
• Create a “pseudo user” for each repository, thus central administration can act as if it were a staffer in the repository
