About:
A lot has changed in the field of digital archives since this website (it's in HTML!) was created back in 2006. It was originally developed to satisfy a grad school project requirement, but has since helped many aspiring professionals learn more about the profession. Even today, it's hard to find a concise definition of what a Digital Archivist is. So, this site remains. Although some of the information is outdated, the bulk of it (with a few minor tweaks here and there) is still very useful. For information about the author please visit the contact page.

The New Church of St. Peter (with dome still under construction). The greatest Roman building project was, of course, the new church of Saint Peter, the great dome of which symbolizes the papacy to this day.
