| Reports | Nancy Enneking | The group discussed the need to send the ArchivesSpace Reports Specification to developers, including Hudson Mlonglo Molonglo and Atlas Systems. To help the developers, we will redesign a handful of basic and complex reports to demonstrate the range of complexity. We established subgroups and a timeline for completing the following by the end of October: - review the executive summary, goals, and requirements of the draft ArchivesSpace Reports Specifications documents to ensure clarity (Brad and Alston);
- review and develop new report approximately 6 final drafts of definitions for a variety of reports (including shelf list, accession receipt, and subject list reports) varying in complexity (Nancy and Carolyn);
- and assemble a corpus of targeted canned reports including titles and single sentence descriptive summaries (Nikki, Brenda, Jasmine).
