摘要

In order to authenticate the meaning of collections and tornpreserve their evidentiary value, archivists createrndocuments (finding aids) that describe the provenance andrnoriginal order of the records (MacNeil, 1995). Metadatarnstandards such as Encoded Archival Description (EAD)rnenable finding aids to be encoded, searched, and displayedrnonline. However, recent research has begun to drawrnattention to problems with the quality of EAD finding aidrndata and metadata, and the encoding practices by whichrnfinding aids are created. Since the next frontier in archivalrndescription involves reusing finding aid data for advancedrninformation visualization techniques that support additionalrnways of engaging with collections, there is a pressing needrnfor further study of data quality and how it might impactrninformation visualization. This work analyzes a set of 8729rnfinding aids aggregated by the Texas Archival RepositoryrnOnline (TARO) using VADA, a visual analytic tool forrnfinding aids. The results show previously unidentifiedrnproblems that have significant impact on the ability tornvisualize this data. The paper explains how these problemsrnrelate to both EAD’s design and the actual encodingrnpractices of EAD, and provides recommendations forrnimproving the quality of finding aid data.
