The "Collection Contents" component list in the finding aid view may take up to 24 hours to display in the OAC website. If you experience extended delays, please contact us. Please note that you may need to refresh your browser to verify immediate updates, by using the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + F5" (Windows/Linux) or "Command + Shift + R" (Mac) for a hard refresh. Alternatively, please access your browser's settings to clear cached files.

Issue
Revisions to published finding aids do not display in the OAC site.

Our AWS Cloudfront implementation caches OAC pages, including finding aid views, in order to quickly display site pages and improve the site performance. However, if updates/edits are made to a finding aid, users may still see older cached versions of the finding aid in their web browsers.

We have made updates to our indexing process, to force clear the AWS Cloudfront cache when any updates/edits are made to finding aids; web browsers should automatically detect the change, and display the latest version of the finding aid.


Curious about our progress? Take a look at our work-in-progress overview page to check the status.
