Welcome to Archival Software

 

This wiki contains information about archival management and description tools.  It emerges out of a January 2009 report on archival management tools written by Lisa Spiro for the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR), but we hope that archivists and software developers will contribute new information to keep it a fresh, valuable resource. Note that inclusion of software in this wiki does not indicate an endorsement, nor does an application's absence suggest dissatisfaction. Please contact Lisa at lspiro@rice.edu if you would like to contribute information to the wiki.  For example, you could add another tool, update information about a tool already described, make a comment, and so forth. See Contributing to this wiki for more information.
