title: ArchivesSpace-Archivematica-DSpace Workflow Integration
creators: Michael Shallcross Max Eckard
abstract: In recent years, ArchivesSpace and Archivematica have emerged as two of the most exciting open source platforms for working with digital archives. The former manages accessions and collections and provides a framework for entering descriptive, administrative, rights, and other metadata. The latter ingests digital content and prepares information packages for long-term preservation and access. In April 2014, the Bentley Historical Library received a $355,000 grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to partner with the University of Michigan Library on the integration of these two systems in an end-to-end workflow that will include the automated deposit of content into a DSpace repository. This poster will introduce the “ArchivesSpace-Archivematica-DSpace Workflow Integration” project and its goals, strategies, and development roadmap.
