Dear Lisa :
      En Europe we work with many photos/images in archives the 90 of the XX century. We have a big experience with the successives updates of ARCHIDOC of IECISA ,software developped specially to the Archivo General de Indias (you can see a report in the last publications of Council and Preservation and Access, signed by P. Gonzalez).
      In the other hand the most recients programs have an interenting module of image or compatibility with other programs of a un common suite of products ( the soft CLARA and TAURUS+, of EVER).
      Both products have customers of luxe like the Europe´s Parliament, the Komintern Archives ( international project of I.C.A. where i work like delegate from Spain).
      If you need more information contact me off the list and i will send you the commercial address 

With my best wishes

Desperately seeking software suggestions --

Here at Maryknoll we have a separate Photo Library. There are ca. 300,000 to 3 million images, depending whom you ask. It is heavily used both internally and externally, and archival items have never been identified for transfer to the archives. That aside, the Photo Lib is planning to enter the last century and get a computer, as well as automating their many functions and cataloging the images at the item level. Database software suggested to them by our I/S Dept include Museum and Galleries. My concern is that these products really seem geared to dealing with 3D items, and that a lot of the Photo Lib's functions will have to be built in.

1) Is my concern unfounded?
2) Can you offer some brand names of software that I can suggest they check out?
3) Is there a different listserv I should query about this?
4) Are there any websites for librarians and/or archivists that list collections management software?

Thanks for any input,
Lisa
