Good ArchivesSpace experiences

  • No entries yetThe ability to "not" public things to the PUI at a very granular level

Poor ArchivesSpace experiences

  • No entries yetJargon such as "Digital Objects", "Accessions", "Classifications".  I don't think folks outside of the archives/ library professional sphere know what this means.  For example in the military, "Classification" means something entirely different.

Desirable user experience examples

  • No entries  yetLibrarything shows a great example of discovery of materials (in this case books) through authors. The authors names are not regularized which bothers me but I think ASpace could leverage this functionality with the "names". https://www.librarything.com/author/rowlingjk
  • BBC programmes uses linked data and has a slick search interface. I like the use of the word "categories"  instead of "classification" in other words they limit the jargon.  It's very visual to the point of being a bit busy but I think some degree of using images is important with so much visual media in archives. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes Look at the examples below the search bar to get a full idea of the capability for showing dates, etc.
