AIM25:
Archives in London and the M25 Area
http://www.aim25.ac.uk/
The AIM25 project intends to provide electronic
access to details of archives held by over fifty institutions (higher
education and learned societies) in the greater London area. AIM25
will provide collection level descriptions for the entire archival
holdings of the participating institutions. These descriptions will
be provided for each collection or sub-grouping of larger collections,
and might extend to series level in the case of institutional records.
Currently, detailed catalogues of archives will only be provided
where they already exist in electronic format. In order to facilitate
searching AIM25 will be indexing their descriptions, which will
enable searching via free text keywords, personal, corporate and
place names and subject index. As well as searching it is possible
to browse the records by repository. The AIM25 site has a useful
list of links. The site is clearly structured and the project will,
on completion, provide an extremely valuable resource.
