Basics of Archival Description

Workshop 1: Archival Description Standards
Workshop 2: Publishing Archival Finding Aids Using EAD

February 22 and March 15, 2010, at Hayden Library on the Arizona State University campus.

The first workshop provided participants with an overview of the accepted techniques and best practices of descriptive standards for archival collections, and described the basics of the hands-on work done by archivists.

The second workshop taught participants how to catalog a finding aid using Encoded Archival Description (EAD) and publish the finding aid online through Arizona Archives Online, a statewide consortium for archival finding aids.
