Cataloguing and Scanning

Following initial appraisal and preservation of acquired deposits, we undertake an immediate process of archival accessioning, followed by cataloguing on to our archival catalogue database and scanning using professional scanning equipment.

The scanned images are then transferred to the searchable database¹, allowing for world-wide access to our collections.
