Even so, implementing new practices can take time and effort. With the adoption of ArchivesSpace in 2016, the University found itself being fast-tracked to even more efficient methods for establishing physical and intellectual control over collections. This article will examine the case studies of two large collections that were in the midst of being processed when ArchivesSpace was implemented at the University of Minnesota. How did the switch to ArchivesSpace impact the processing of these collections, and how will these experiences impact the future of archival processing at the University?","PeriodicalId":35382,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Archival Organization","volume":"13 1","pages":"100 - 113"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15332748.2018.1443549","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59880348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Noonan","doi":"10.1080/15332748.2018.1445607","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/15332748.2018.1445607","url":null,"abstract":"For nearly a half-century, we in the archives, records, and information management professions have either taught our institutions and organizations, or been taught, that a record is a record, no matter the media or manner in which it is created. It is the informational value contained within the item that determines whether it is a record. If it is a record, we then need to identify the temporal value of that information to determine its lifecycle, that is how long it should be maintained and its final disposition, either destruction or accessioning to an archive. However, there still is significant pushback from our institutions’ desires to treat electronic or born digital records as something different from those that are paper-based and/or analog-born, and subsequently want to monolithically manage electronic/digital records’ lifecycles as a single record type. Fueled by the proliferation of desktop computing and subsequent loss of administrative assistants and in-the-trenches records professionals, consistent and effective records management processes have, to a significant extent, been lost in many organizations. This is exacerbated by low-cost and/or Internet cloud-based storage that creates the perception that we can keep all of our electronic/digital data, documents, records and information, and therefore lifecyclemanagement is not required. Alternatively, an organization may be in the opposite situation, in which the information technology infrastructure group begins to run out of space and wants to summarily delete the oldest things in the system. Neither situation is a sound data, documents, records, and information management strategy, nor does it address the potential archival value, or lack thereof, of the items. This problem exists throughout our organizations from our enterprise systems that manage human resources and financial data, to our shared drives, to the darkest and dankest quagmire of all, our email systems. Had Dante Alighieri been a records or informationmanagement professional in the twenty-first century, he may have assigned one level of his hell solely to email.","PeriodicalId":35382,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Archival Organization","volume":"13 1","pages":"146 - 151"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15332748.2018.1445607","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59880279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Rights In The Digital Era, Menzi L. Behrnd-Klodt and Christopher J. Prom (Eds.), with an introduction by Peter B. Hirtle, featuring modules by Heather Briston, Menzi L. Behrnd-Klodt, and Aprille C. McKay","authors":"M. O. Adams","doi":"10.1080/15332748.2018.1443559","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/15332748.2018.1443559","url":null,"abstract":"Rights in the Digital Era is the second volume in the Society of American Archivists’ (SAA) Trends in Archives Practices series. The series, a major initiative of SAA’s Publication Board, “complements and extends the core archival knowledge and practice” that SAA has traditionally provided to archivists and related professionals. Each module covers a topic related to the practical management of archives and manuscript collections in the digital era. The Rights cluster consists of Modules 4 through 7 in the series. They address copyright, balancing access, and the right of privacy in manuscript collections and in the records of organizations, as well as managing rights and permissions. All the authors have archival and legal backgrounds and actively participate in SAA’s Intellectual PropertyWorkingGroup. Overall, the volume is impressive, well written and professionally presented—a must for archivists. The volume opens with an introduction by Peter B. Hirtle, senior policy advisor to the Cornell University Library and a Fellow at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University. Hirtle identifies three general themes in the volume: that the law is often unclear and imprecise and many of the rights issues archivists face are not matters of law but of professional ethics; interpretation of the law is constantly changing; and, archivists can (should?) embrace this ambivalence and learn to live with risk. His commentary serves as a good prelude to discussions of risk assessment. Modules offer practice-based commentary and recommendations and include appendices with further readings: case studies; selected sample documents, policies, forms or templates; and a glossary of terms. Each module stands alone but these four are so interrelated that they warrant treatment as a single work. Module 4, “Understanding Copyright Law,” was written by Heather Briston, currently the UCLAUniversity Archivist. Briston reviews the law’s history, basic principles, and scope from an archival perspective. She notes that contemporary archivists need to understand both U.S. and international copyright law, and their potential for revision. Briston addresses the challenges facing those with responsibility for digital materials who seek tomanage their holdings responsibly but who must adhere to law conceptualized for analog materials. She recognizes that this dilemma reflects societal blind spots about archives as well as the impact of technology on the information landscape. She urges archives to formulate clear policies on copyright, including, as relevant, having a fully formed take-down policy for any archival online resource, given the possibility of unanticipated issues arising once accessible online. In modules 5 and 6, Menzi L. Behrnd-Klodt covers “Balancing Access and Privacy in Manuscript Collections” and “Balancing Access and Privacy in the Records of Organizations.” The author is a well-known and respected authority on legal issues for archivist","PeriodicalId":35382,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Archival Organization","volume":"35 1","pages":"127 - 129"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15332748.2018.1443559","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59880361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
