ICA-AtoM ships with default screen layouts ("templates") for viewing and editing archival descriptions, authority records and archival institutions. These layouts are based on the the following descriptive standards:
- archival descriptions: Dublin Core Metadata Element Set, Version 1.1, Metadata Object Description Schema (MODS) and Rules for Archival Description (RAD).
- Authority records: International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons, and Families (ISAAR), Second edition.
- archival institutions: International Standard for Describing Institutions with Archival Holdings (ISDIAH), First edition.
Viewing and changing default templates
1. Click the admin > settings tab.
2. Open the default template information area.
3. The name column shows the types of entities that are described in ICA-AtoM.
4. In the value column, select for each type of entity the descriptive standard you want to use to describe it.
- The drop-down menu shows only descriptive standards for which data entry / viewing templates are available.
5. Click the save button to save changes.
6. When you return to viewing / editing information, the records will display in the templates you selected.
Adding new templates
7. Developers can also create their own customized templates and add them to their ICA-AtoM application. This involves, however, dealing directly with the application code and should only be undertaken by programmers familiar with Symfony and PHP. See developer documentation at the Qubit-toolkit website for adding customized templates to the application.
