Computer Assisted Systems: One area of significant potential for resolving the need for more sophisticated information management tools is the computer assisted data storage and retrieval technologies. Past archaeological and historical studies have developed a substantial body of data about the nation's past. Unfortunately, this data is largely unusable or inaccessible because of cumbersome and inadequate record keeping techniques. Efforts directed towards computer technology transfer, adapting integrated and cost effective computer hardware and software systems to resolve logistical data management problems and facilitate information accessibility, will have immediate and substantial benefits for the preservation community.
