This workflow involves creating resource components in Archivists' Toolkit; preserving digital objects and generating access copies (as DIPs) in Archivematica; sending DIP metadata, including digital object UUIDs, to AT; copying access copies to a web-server; and generating EAD files from AT and uploading them to XTF. XTF is used to display the EAD files and access copies on a publicly available website. The diagram below depicts the overall workflow:

Administrative settings

Before ingesting digital objects destined for Archivists' Toolkit and XTF, ensure that the Achivists' Toolkit DIP upload settings in the administration tab of the dashboard have been set.

  • Include the IP address of the host database (db host), the database port (db port), the database name (db name), the database user (db user), and the Archivists' Toolkit user name (at username).
  • Should you wish to enable the PREMIS-based restrictions functionality, choose "base on PREMIS" under "Restrictions Apply".

Workflow

  1. Create resource components in Archivists Toolkit: Create a collection-level resource component and sub-components as desired. Note that “level of description” of the top-level component must be “collection”.
  2. Digital objects can be ingested in zipped or unzipped bags or in unbagged directories as standard transfers. If the objects are in a bag, do not insert a directory between the top-level directory and the bag’s /data directory.

Thus:

/bag
/data
file1.tif
file2.tif
file3.tif

Not:

/bag
/directory
/data
file1.tif
file2.tif
file3.tif

The directory structure above assumes that Archivematica will be generating access copies during processing (i.e. user selects “Normalize for access” or “Normalize for preservation and access” at the normalization step). If you wish to include access derivatives in the transfer instead, the derivatives must be placed in an /access directory, and must have the same filename as the original so that Archivematica can recognize the link between the two.

Thus:

file1.tif
file2.tif
file3.tif
/access
file2.jp2
file3.jp2


For transfers with multiple images which are combined into multi-page access copies, the directory structure should look like this:

file1.tif
file2.tif
file3.tif
multi.pdf
/access
multi.pdf

Note that this structure can also accommodate directory hierarchies:

/access
/JPG_PDF
/FCD001_024_008800
FCD001_024_008800.pdf
/FCD001_025_00577
FCD001_025_00577.pdf
/JPG_PDF
/FCD001_024_008800
FCD001_024_008800_001_se.jpg
FCD001_024_008800_002_se.jpg
/FCD001_025_00577
FCD001_02500577001_se.jpg
/tiffs
/FCD001_024_008800
FCD001_024_008800_001_m.tiff
FCD001_024_008800_002_m.tiff
/FCD001_025_00577
FCD001_02500577001_m.tiff

When processing transfers containing access derivatives, select either “Normalize for preservation” or “No normalization” at the normalization step.
