Create an accession record for the digital material that you are working with, for now it will just be a brief record so that you have an accession number to use with the resulting digital package. This will be one accession for all of the media contained in an unprocessed portion of a collection or a new unaccessioned transfer. If it is part of an unaccessioned transfer with analog records, everything will be accessioned together.

  • Follow the steps in the Creating Accession Records in ArchivesSpace [link] document manual. This accession record will be updated as you go through this workflow, at this point it is important to have an accession number which you can use for folder naming purposes. 

  • Once you have your stub accession record, create a folder in the shared folder and title it with the accession number with an underscore instead of a dash and acc at the end, for instance: 2020_029acc. If accessible in BitCurator (sometimes won’t show up) or using Windows, the folder can be created either C:\ArchProcessing or on the FRED, C:\Users\DSLabAdmin\ArchProcessing. If not accessible on BitCurator, you can use an external hard drive.
