We are excited to introduce ArchivesSpace to our students and researchers at the Franco-American Collection and Special Collections. This guide is currently in development.
Please contact Anna Faherty or Jill Piekut Roy for more information about using our archives and manuscript collections database.
Browse the collections using the links in the grey bar at the top of the page–you can use this functionality to explore collections, digital objects, subject terms, and people.
Using the “search the collections” keyword search box you can further explore using specific names, subjects, or topics. Limiting by record type will allow you to see which items are available digitally and which are not. You can also change the search field from “keyword” to other search terms such as “creator” and “title.” Searching using filters by year is also available. Once you enter a search term, you will see results on the left hand side of your screen, and further filters on the right hand side. You can use these filters to further limit your search by subject, language, people or type.
Thank you to the staff and students who have contributed to the database implementation!
