This Drupal 8 module creates vocabularies to represent common named entities in archival description (Corporate Bodies, Families, and Persons) as well as subject terms.
It is intended to be used in conjunction with both the ArchivesSpace/Drupal 8 Integration project and Islandora 8.
This module requires the following modules:
Download and install as with other Drupal modules.
For example, using composer from the Drupal site's web directory:
$ composer require drupal/controlled_access_terms
$ drush en -y controlled_access_terms
Enable controlled_access_terms_defaults to create the default vocabularies.
Provided vocabularies and fields may be configured in the same manner as other Drupal 8 vocabularies.
Below is a list of the vocabularies provided by controlled_access_terms_defaults. The fields with "EDTF" accept and display dates corresponding to the Library of Congress 2018 Extended Date/Time Format Specification (EDTF). See the section below for more information on EDTF.

The Library of Congress created the Extended Date/Time Format Specification which was subsequently incorporated with ISO 8601-2019. This modules provides a custom EDTF field type with a corresponding formatter (for display) and widget (for data entry).
Both the formatter and widget include settings for controlling how the EDTF is entered and displayed. For example, the widget allows EDTF values to use intervals; however, the widget settings (accessible through the bundle's form display page) can restrict the field to only accept single-dates.
Note: widget settings will not apply to data imported through other means (e.g.
the Migrate API or REST-based updates). To apply some basic EDTF validation
when using Migrate API, set validate: true in the migration's destination.
This is a coarser validation than the widgets provided but will rule out some
malformed date strings.
The formatter settings allow administrators to control how the date is displayed. The default setting is YYYY-MM-DD (e.g. 1900-01-31) but settings can change, for example, the separator and the date order to display dates in 'mm/dd/yyyy' format (e.g. 01/31/1900).
Further documentation for this module is available on the Islandora 8 documentation site.
