Abstract
The goal of the project is to collect ethnological material and to evaluate and protect ethnological archives: unique written material (manuscripts, family archives, legacies of researchers and collectors), audiovisual material (drawings, architectural documentation, plans, photographs, slides, films, and video and audio recordings). The project was started by a unified organizing of old prints, photographs, and pictorial material collected in the course of current research. All institute employees are incorporated into the joint network featuring a table in Excel which is adapted so that each researcher is able to classify his or her material according to locality, region, and a detailed ethnological classification. The digitized collection in the Access data base will enable the user to look for material in different manners (ethnological classification, keywords, author, locality, region, temporal frame) and to preview the scanned material in one of the graphic programs (in Corel Photo Paint, for instance). Once all the units in the institute''s collections have been interconnected, institute employees as well as outside users will be able to review the whole of the institute''s material. The project will also include the making of photo compact discs and CDs.
