EAD best practices

The Best Practice Guidelines for the LSTA grant project were developed during the summer of 2007. The committee used the Northwest Digital Archives best practice guide as the foundation of its guidelines, reviewing them against other national and regional standards as well as local practice to determine what the requirements should be. The committee also developed a condensed version of the guidelines based on the University of Minnesota best practices guidelines.

Both copies of the best practice guidelines, as well as the subject browse lists, are available at the UMA EAD Validator site.
