ArchivesZ is a prototype for an information visualization tool designed to support search, understanding and exploration of archival and manuscript collections. It seeks to address one of the major challenges facing those who work with archival records - the need to understand the scope and quantity of available records. Since archival collections are unique, vary dramatically in record quantity and are organized based on the records creators it can be a great challenge for users to gain perspective concerning the available records across multiple collections.
