Abstract
For years archivists and manuscript curators have heard their librarian colleagues sing the praises of automation. Online catalogs, bibliographic databases, sophisticated computer searches, and all the other touted benefits of automation seemed to have exciting implications for the archival world. The reality of library automation, though, often fell far short of the promise, as library online catalogs frequently have proven too limited in both record length and search and management capabilities to give archivists the control they need over their unique collections.
