DIVA
The Digital Information Versatile Archive (DIVA) allows students and
researchers to search, browse, view and print digital images of books,
technical reports and archival documents. With specifications developed
by Carnegie Mellon librarians and archivists, DIVA provides conventional
access to library and archival materials, and adds powerful new functions
for searching and retrieving documents, supporting multimedia, and customizing
the structure and presentation of collections. At present, DIVA is used
for more than one million pages of archival materials.
DIVA extends the capabilities of the previous HELIOS system.
