We're using ArchivesSpace hosted by Library Host. It's not quite fully implemented for unprocessed collections but so far, we're happy with it.

We had already decided to try for ArchivesSpace and were able to eventually find funding. We hadn't planned to pull our OhioLINK FAs from that repository, but were especially in need of the collections management side of ASpace.

(Our longtime dept head George Bain, really wanted our finding aids to be out there, including making them accessible via Gopher about the same time that the Berkeley Finding Aid project<https://www.loc.gov/ead/eaddev.html> was announced in 1993.)

Good luck!

Use caution with links and attachments.
With the news of the OhioLINK EAD Finding Aid Creation Tool and Online Repository (EAD FACTORy) being shut down in July 2024, we are exploring our options. What are you all doing/using to create and share your finding aids?

Thank you,
Marsha
