   - After communicating with PRMS and other teams working on systems using this metadata I finally updated them in CGSpace
 - Export CGSpace to check for missing Initiative collection mappings
 - Start a harvest on AReS
+- I fixed ~200 titles with new lines, excessive whitespace, and Unicode FFFD characters
+  - There are many more with 00A0, 200B, etc, but those need more careful inspection

+- Oh this is a game changer, I just realized that we can use Solr query syntax in the DSpace 7 REST API, so we can do this for example:
+
+```
+https://dspace7test.ilri.org/server/api/discover/search/objects?query=lastModified%3A%5B2023-08-01T00%3A00%3A00Z%20TO%20%2A%5D
+```
+
+- Which is this query: `lastModified:[2023-08-01T00:00:00Z TO *]`
+  - The queries need to be URL encoded of course
+- Oh nice, and we can do the same for accession date:
+
+```
+https://dspace7test.ilri.org/server/api/discover/search/objects?query=dc.date.accessioned_dt%3A%5B2023-08-01T00%3A00%3A00Z%20TO%20%2A%5D'
+```
+
+- That is this query: `dc.date.accessioned_dt:[2023-08-01T00:00:00Z TO *]`
+  - We need to use the dt version of the accession date because that is the one that has a date type
+  - This query give 290 results, which should be the items submitted in August!
