All logged-in and public users should be able browse: information objects (e.g. archival descriptions), actors, repositories (e.g. archival institutions), functions, subjects, places and digital objects.

NOTE: There are other settings that a user can put in place via the user interface that may prevent this - for example, an administrator could remove all menu links to certain entities if not in use, and/or restrict permissions to view certain entities, etc. Please ensure that user-created factors are not confused with a bug when testing!
