Archival Finding Aids (EADs)

Printer-friendly version

For help with anything related to EADs, including Archives Florida and Archon, use the Archon queue in RT (archon@prb.fcla.edu).

Archives Florida
Archives Florida is a statewide shared database of EAD-encoded archival finding aids. Any Florida institution with archival holdings can participate.

Opening Archives
Opening Archives is the program that supports Archives Florida with tools and training. FCLA supports Archon for creating EAD finding aids and DigiTool for displaying them.

Archon
Archon is a software tool for curators of archives and manuscript collections to create EAD finding aids, linked authority records for creators and subject headings, and other information. EADs created in Archon can be displayed in Archon and/or exported for import into Archives Florida. FCLA hosts and maintains Archon installations for libraries on request.
