'''CSV Import in AtoM'''
 +
 +
* Originally presented by Dan Gillean as part of the [[Community/Camps/London2019|2019 AtoM Camp]], held at the University of Westminster in London, UK, July 15-17, 2019
 +
* These slides provide users with guidance on how to prepare archival descriptions for import into Access to Memory (AtoM) via CSV import. These slides were prepared against AtoM 2.5, and are accurate for versions 2.3-2.5. Earlier versions may require some minor changes; later releases may introduce changes to the CSV templates not covered here.

'''Things I wish I'd known - AtoM tips, tricks, and gotchas'''
 +
 +
* Originally presented by Dan Gillean as part of the [[Community/Camps/London2019|2019 AtoM Camp]], held at the University of Westminster in London, UK, July 15-17, 2019
 +
* The slides include tips, tricks, workarounds, warnings, and gotchas about AtoM that can help orient new users - and hopefully even teach experienced users a couple new things!

'''2-site replication with AtoM'''
 +
 +
* Originally presented by Dan Gillean as part of the [[Community/Camps/London2019|2019 AtoM Camp]], held at the University of Westminster in London, UK, July 15-17, 2019
 +
* The slides explain how an Ansible script created and publicly shared by Artefactual Systems can be used to manage a 2-site AtoM deployment - one public-facing read only site for public users, with content replicated from an internal read/write edit site for staff, which can be kept behind a firewall. Public login can also be fully disabled in the public site. In addition to enhancing security, this 2-site deployment model can also increase performance and scalability, as well as give archivists more control over when new records without a publication status (such as authority records) are made publicly discoverable.

* In this session, we took a quick tour of some examples of how AtoM is being implemented by our global community of users. We looked specifically at interesting themes, customizations, or the creative use of existing features such as static pages or repository theming as a way of exploring some of the different ways AtoM can be used. Participants were then invited to come up and show off their AtoM site to the attendees as well.

* In this session, we looked at the history of the AtoM project, the current governance and maintenance model for AtoM that Artefactual Systems maintains, as well as several other open source business models and stakeholders as we consider ways in which governance and maintenance might look different in the future. Finally, we looked at the state of the application at present with an eye to the future - exploring how changes in international standards and web technologies provide an opportunity to consider what AtoM 3 might look like. The session was followed by open discussion.

Aspects of ISO 16363:2012, the Audit and Certification of Trustworthy Digital Repositories standard, are used to evaluate how AtoM can support description, management, administration, and access functions when used to maintain a chain of custody in a trustworthy digital repository ecosystem.

2019

CSV Import in AtoM

  • Originally presented by Dan Gillean as part of the 2019 AtoM Camp, held at the University of Westminster in London, UK, July 15-17, 2019
  • These slides provide users with guidance on how to prepare archival descriptions for import into Access to Memory (AtoM) via CSV import. These slides were prepared against AtoM 2.5, and are accurate for versions 2.3-2.5. Earlier versions may require some minor changes; later releases may introduce changes to the CSV templates not covered here.
  • Relevant as of AtoM release 2.5. Expect changes in later and earlier versions of AtoM

Things I wish I'd known - AtoM tips, tricks, and gotchas

  • Originally presented by Dan Gillean as part of the 2019 AtoM Camp, held at the University of Westminster in London, UK, July 15-17, 2019
  • The slides include tips, tricks, workarounds, warnings, and gotchas about AtoM that can help orient new users - and hopefully even teach experienced users a couple new things!

2-site replication with AtoM

  • Originally presented by Dan Gillean as part of the 2019 AtoM Camp, held at the University of Westminster in London, UK, July 15-17, 2019
  • The slides explain how an Ansible script created and publicly shared by Artefactual Systems can be used to manage a 2-site AtoM deployment - one public-facing read only site for public users, with content replicated from an internal read/write edit site for staff, which can be kept behind a firewall. Public login can also be fully disabled in the public site. In addition to enhancing security, this 2-site deployment model can also increase performance and scalability, as well as give archivists more control over when new records without a publication status (such as authority records) are made publicly discoverable.

Creating your own AtoM demo data set for re-use with Vagrant

  • Presentation by Dan Gillean, for use in a series of training workshops delivered July 9-13, 2018 at the University of the Witswatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa

AtoM Implementations

  • First presented by Dan Gillean as part of AtoM Camp Cambridge, a three-day boot camp held at St John's College, Cambridge University, May 9-11, 2017
  • In this session, we took a quick tour of some examples of how AtoM is being implemented by our global community of users. We looked specifically at interesting themes, customizations, or the creative use of existing features such as static pages or repository theming as a way of exploring some of the different ways AtoM can be used. Participants were then invited to come up and show off their AtoM site to the attendees as well.

Looking Ahead: AtoM's governance, development, and future

  • First presented by Dan Gillean as part of AtoM Camp Cambridge, a three-day boot camp held at St John's College, Cambridge University, May 9-11, 2017
  • In this session, we looked at the history of the AtoM project, the current governance and maintenance model for AtoM that Artefactual Systems maintains, as well as several other open source business models and stakeholders as we consider ways in which governance and maintenance might look different in the future. Finally, we looked at the state of the application at present with an eye to the future - exploring how changes in international standards and web technologies provide an opportunity to consider what AtoM 3 might look like. The session was followed by open discussion.

Warning

These slides were last updated in May 2017, using the AtoM 2.4 Vagrant box, which is installed using Ubuntu 16.04. and PHP 7.0. Future versions of AtoM may use a different version of Ubuntu and PHP, which might change some of the command-line tasks used to update the box in Part 2. Be sure to check the AtoM documentation for the most up-to-date information:

The AtoM Vagrant box is designed for local testing and development - it is NOT PRODUCTION READY and should not be used for long-term data storage. Please see the AtoM documentation for instructions on how to install AtoM on a server for use in your institution.
