[Yale ArchivesSpace] extent/physical description question

[Caldera, Mary]

Colleagues,

I have an AS usage question. I am updating a legacy finding aid that has the extent (in pages) appended to the titles of archival  objects (usually letters). I want to move the extent out of the title. Since "pages" is not one of the preferred extent type values for the extent sub record, would the best way to enter this in AS be to create an extent sub record or create a physical description note? If the former, should the extent type be "See container summary" with the number of pages in the Container summary field?

I am leaning toward a note, since pages is not the type of data I see us needing to do anything with, but want to see what others think.

Thanks for your input. -- Mary
