Acknowledging that existing collection management practices and policies are no longer adequate takes courage. Acting on this takes time and patience. This can be especially true when tradition and inertia maintain a status quo that does not serve the interests of the collections or users. The presenters discuss their approach to unifying University of Kentucky School of Music concert recordings and programs housed in the University Archives and the Fine Arts Library. They will cover collection acquisition and description decisions, including their decision to create an archival collection guide in ArchivesSpace and a collection-level MARC record providing two access pathways to this dispersed collection. They also will outline how to use Aeon to manage two request queues. Session attendees will leave with practical approaches to description and access for physically and/or administratively siloed portions of intellectually similar collections, as well as an understanding of how archival description can be used to bridge those silos in varying management contexts.
