Please note that ICA-AtoM is no longer actively supported by Artefactual Systems.
Visit https://www.accesstomemory.org for information about AtoM, the currently supported version.
Main Page > User manual > UM-7 Administer > UM-7.4 Settings > UM-7.4.4 User interface labels
Users of ICA-AtoM interact with four main entities: archival descriptions, authority records, archival institutions, and terms.
For more on entities, see entity types.
ICA-AtoM, however, is built on underlying software (Qubit) that is designed to be flexible enough to support descriptions of other types of cultural materials in addition to library holdings (such as archival, museum, and art gallery materials). The code, therefore, uses generic terms for entities. Administrators can specify how they want these terms to appear in the user interface labels. The default labels that ship with ICA-AtoM represent a library-specific "theming" of the labels.
-
Click "Admin > Settings".
-
Open the "User interface label" information area.
-
The "Name" column shows the generic Qubit entity name and the "Value" column shows ICA-AtoM's default user interface labels. The following is a list of the generic Qubit terms and their ICA-AtoM user interface labels. Click on each label to see glossary definitions and descriptions of how the terms are used in ICA-AtoM.
- informationobject: archival descriptions
- actor: Authority record
- creator: Creator
- repository: Archival institution
- term: Term
- subject: Subject
- collection: Fonds
- holdings: Holdings
- place: Place
- name: Name
- digitalobject: Digital object
- physicalobject: Physical storage
- mediatype: Media type
- materialtype: Material type (general material designations used in the Canadian Rules for Archival Description)
-
To change user interface labels, enter the new label(s) into the field(s) in the "Value" column.
-
Click the "Save" button to commit changes.
