Does anyone use AS for library collections?  I’m trying to find a way to include our library books so they can be included in search results.  I don’t really want to have a separate database for books, having researchers needing to search multiple resources.

I do include the small collection of books in our ArchivesSpace.  I enter each one as an item, and they have their own series within a record group called Special Collections.

 

Here is a screenshot of one such record, if it helps.

I do it, too. But more like a research guide.

Hi!

 

I just completed a project cataloguing our reference library into ASpace. I posted a couple of questions in this list, you can look for them and see what responses I got.

 

I created a single resource record for our library and a child record per book as an item.

 

I utilized sub-records for the bibliographic data, i.e. publication and date, authors and Notes.

 

As an example of notes I used: The data comes from a legacy database and required a lot of cleanup to get to this point. The abstract currently reflects subject heading and agents as subjects.  A later project will be to utilize actual subject and agent links. Whereas, currently, Agent links only reflect authors and editors (creators).

If you want more details, feel free to reach out.

 

Cheers,
