Share your ArchivesSpace Use Case

Based on community feedback, we’re working to add a new section to the ArchivesSpace Help Center featuring use cases from ArchivesSpace member organizations that highlight how those organizations use the functionality within the application to accomplish their work.  We know that community members are very eager for examples like this but in order to make this happen, we need your help! 

While the ArchivesSpace User Documentation Sub-team of the User Advisory Council works to ensure the ArchivesSpace user manual contains the documentation necessary to explain how the application works, we know that how individual organizations actually use the application depends on the specific context of your work. 

In an effort to build a more inclusive member community and to highlight the many ways an organization can use the application, we are soliciting community use cases to offer as supplements to our user manual. All use cases are wanted and welcome. We hope by providing a wide range use of cases and examples, we can highlight the many ways ArchivesSpace can be used to facilitate archival work.

We’ve created a form for those interested in submitting their use cases. If you'd like to share your use case(s) for more than one type of functionality, please complete the form again selecting the relevant functionality type.  Keep in mind, these use cases will be shared in the ArchivesSpace Help Center and viewable to all ArchivesSpace members.  Please don’t share any data or information you’d like to keep private. The submission form is now open and you can begin submitting use cases whenever you wish.  We will reach out to you directly before publishing your use case to the Help Center but if you have any questions in the meantime, please email ArchivesSpaceHome@lyrasis.org for more information. 

Initiatives like this are only possible with engaged community members willing to share and engage with one another. Thank you in advance for your participation.
