project: Make Encoded Archival Description (proMEAD)
Waar in het archiefbeheersysteem voornamelijk administratieve gegevens van het archief geregistreerd worden, is in de EAD ruimte om contextuele informatie op te nemen, inclusief uitgebreide bibliografische gegevens van de vormers en een getrapte indeling in rubrieken. Naast de klassieke verschijningsvorm van toegangen in boekvorm kan de EAD gebruikt worden om zoekmogelijkheden op een website te realiseren en archiefstukken kunnen online geraadpleegd en eventueel aangevraagd worden.

RLG's EAD Report Card
This Web application is the first automated program for checking the quality of your EAD encoding. Created by popular demand, the tool supplements RLG's award-winning RLG Best Practice Guidelines for Encoded Archival Description. Simply upload one of your finding aids for a quick checkup. The program will flag any discrepancies and cite the relevant guideline, so you can fix what you have wrong on the spot.
About Five College Archives & Manuscript Collections
The finding aids included in this site are marked up in XML according to the Encoded Archival Description (EAD) standard. The site runs Cocoon publishing software that applies XSL stylesheets for displaying the finding aids as HTML in any standard web browser. Lucene is the site's search engine. Both Cocoon and Lucene are open source software projects of The Apache Software Foundation.
Opening Archives
Archives Florida is a growing database of finding aids (guides and inventories) to collections held by archives in Florida. Any archive, library, historical society, museum or similar agency in Florida with archival collections is eligible to contribute finding aids to the Archives Florida database if the finding aids adhere to the Encoded Archival Description (EAD) standard and follow the Statewide EAD Best Practice Guidelines.
