New AtoM release today - 2.7 is here

[Jennifer Roberts]

Dear AtoM community members,

On the dark day of northern hemisphere winter solstice, we have a bright announcement for you: AtoM 2.7 is now available!

Release 2.7 is the first major AtoM release since July 2020, and includes new features, some dependency upgrades, accessibility improvements, as well as bug fixes. Some highlights include:

• An updated version of Bootstrap - both BS5 and BS2 are supported in 2.7
• The ability to use Central Authentication Service (CAS) for single sign on
• Enhanced Archivematica integration with the ability to download AIP and preservation files directly from AtoM
• Improved digital object metadata display area
• Introduction of a validation tool for CSV imports via the user interface
• New command line tasks to help verify imports and resolve issues

Visit the AtoM Downloads page to download the most recent release, and consult the 2.7 Upgrading guide in our documentation for further information.

As always, we thank our clients, code contributors, translators, and community members who helped make this release happen!
