"Existing archive software systems are either expensive software-as-a-service tools or open-source projects that require a deep technical understanding to set up and maintain. ArchiveMaster is an open-source, web-based software system aimed at novice archivists who may not have the monetary resources or advanced technical knoweldge neededed to implement one of the existing archiving software systems. "
"ArchiveMaster can be automatically set up and configured with all the default settings a new archivist would need. This includes using the Dublin Core metadata standard, which is a simple but flexible standard in archiving. ArchiveMaster gives everyone, from the "loner arranger" archivist in a local historical society to an archivist in a large institution access to a professional tool that will help them to preserve their important history."
