The Jefferson Institute brings a wealth of experience and technological capacity to this essential task for the conscientious and forward-thinking archivist.
Since 2006, we have digitized an average of 100,000 pages of archival material each month. This effort has converted materials spanning more than three centuries into a web-ready and easily-searchable form.

SoftwareArchive Digitization Application (ADA) is a management system tool which integrates digitization and research processes for small and medium archives.
The tool is designed to integrate both the production and research level, so archives can model, control and monitor their digitization projects and research.

Tag and annotate documents
That data (with archivists authorization) is fed back to the central repository of metadata that all users search against.
Annotation is a tradition among users of archives – they write notes on the folders for the next researchers to come – and ADA seamlessly pulls that tradition into the digital age.
As a researcher you can ALSO:
Date is wrong here!
