Last year, Pennsylvania State University opened a new off-site storage facility and moved approximately 13,000 containers of archival material into the new annex over the course of three weeks. The move resulted in thousands of rows of recently re-visited collections data. Historically, Pennsylvania State University’s archival location information resided in the local MARC record; however, during the move, location information for each container was exported from the Library’s catalog for batch updates. Following the successful completion of the move, the Head of Collections Management suddenly became the owner of a series of rows of recently corrected and newly re-usable data. Working with the help of the Cataloging Systems & Linked Data Strategist, the Special Collections staff is currently working to recycle thousands of rows of data to gain a new sense of control over local container management practices in ArchivesSpace. This presentation will detail how Penn State moved up from existing practices and is working to move in thousands of locations for top containers via the ArchivesSpace API.
