OAC website: Generating “printable guide [HTML]” pages for extensive finding aids

Our team discovered that serving up printable HTML guides for very  large, nested files at the traffic rate generated by the AI bots was the  primary source of the site performance issues experienced at launch, so  we are temporarily linking to stored static HTML pages from the legacy  OAC site for those specific finding aids. As of 8/8, this applies to  HTML guides for finding aids with over 300 <c0#> components. These static HTML pages served by the legacy OAC site will not include any  new data submitted after June 30th, as they are limited to displaying  finding aid data submitted through the legacy OAC system. In the next  few months, we will investigate new strategies to ensure that all  finding aids in the new OAC system, regardless of size, feature  up-to-date, single-page printable guides. We will also be engaging with  the ArcLight development community to address this issue, which other  institutions have also found to be very challenging.
