Archivematica 0.9 allows the ingest of the Library of Congress Bagit format. Users can ingest both zipped and unzipped bags. Bags must be packaged in accordance with the Bagit specification.


See the screencast here:

  • To ingest a zipped bag, user selects transfer type "Zipped bag" from the dropdown menu in the transfer tab of the Dashboard. Note that you cannot add a new title to the zipped bag transfer. (See options in Figure 1)
  • To ingest an unzipped bag, user selects transfer type "Unzipped bag" from the dropdown menu in the transfer tab of the Dashboard. (See options in Figure 1)
