  1. Click "Taxonomies" in the main menu to go to a list of taxonomies. ICA-AtoM takes you to the taxonomy terms list page showing all existing taxonomies.
  2. Click the taxonomy you want to edit to expand it and view the terms associated with it.
  3. Click on a term to go to the view page for the term.
  4. Click the "Delete" button in the button block (locked terms cannot be deleted).
  5. ICA-AtoM prompts you to confirm the delete request; click "OK".
  6. ICA-AtoM deletes the record and returns you to a page listing all remaining top-level terms in the taxonomy.


Deleting a term from a taxonomy will delete the term from associated archival descriptions, authority records, and archival institutions.
