  "RLG Archival Resources is now the largest database of archival information in the United States outside the federal government. There is now an increasing interest in finding the best means for supporting more global research. RLG is eager to foster continuing development of worldwide access systems and in making sure that enhancements to Archival Resources allow for interoperability with other archival access systems."

  • Many of the presentations emphasized the need for tools that streamline the encoding and presentation of EAD. Several have already been developed and participants will be asked to contribute information about those tools to the current survey being conducted by the EAD Working Group of the Society of American Archivists. Some of these tools, such as PLEADE, are also available as open source.
