Web-enabling Archive Digital Content
Archivists are focused on the content of our collections on a very
fundamental level—they actually get to touch and feel the physical
objects in our collections (with gloves as appropriate of course!). They
are trained on organization, appraisal, description, conservation,
recovery, and storage, and they provide reference support, answering
questions for those doing research within the Archives’ collections.
Whether the items our archivists work with are physical documents, or
“born digital” objects, such as word processing documents or digital
photographs, the same issues come up. The only difference is how these
items are stored and handled.
