Hi all,
We’re beginning to encode collections with multiple
accessions (some “processed” and some “unprocessed”—we’ve
been a minimum processing institution for over 12 years so the line is a bit
blurry). In any case, we’ve routinely created separate finding aids for
each new accession that comes in, rather than amending the original finding
aid. I’m looking for examples from other institutions that are attempting
the same thing. My preference would be to amend the original EAD finding aid to
include all accessions, but this gets messy when linking to/from our OPAC. Does
anybody have any good examples to share? I’d be especially interested to
hear from any DLSX users.
Thanks,
Jacqie
