Digital Collections



DescriptionDigital Collections

Our digital collection organizes individual digital files into a virtual filing cabinet.  These files may be documents, images, audio clips, videos or other types of digital files.

Each digital collection provides a powerful customized search engine, which can instantly locate and retrieve individual files based on selected search criteria or a full text search.  This Search and Retrieval Tool is custom developed for each digital collection.

Consider this example.  A Digital Collection contains hundreds of technical abstracts.  Each technical abstract is classified by its title, author(s), author(s) institution, date, subject(s) and numerous keywords.  Once the collection is assembled and the Search and Retrieval Tool is created, abstracts of interest can quickly be located by selecting search criteria and running the search.
