The Calames public catalogue

The catalogue Calames - Catalogue des Archives et Manuscrits de l'Enseignement Supérieur - provides access to the wealth of archives and manuscripts held in the sixty or so member institutions of the network Calames.

Développé par l’Abes en relation étroite avec un groupe de travail composé d’experts du domaine et membres du « premier cercle » des établissements documentaires déployés, le catalogue Calames public met à disposition des utilisateurs les fonctionnalités  suivantes :

• locating a document in a network library Calames
• identification of a document within a corpus, a fonds, a collection
• consultation of a document on site or online if it has been digitised
• gestion des résultats  à partir d’une boîte à outil permettant l’impression, la citation d’une notice par son URL pérenne …

 

Customized interfaces: one Calames per establishment

---

Libraries in the Calames network can have a personalised interface to the Calamescatalogue, created in accordance with their own graphic design and giving access only to the data of the collections reported for their institution.

In May 2024, 19 plants will benefit from this value-added service (see list below).

Note: the Calames interfaces are hosted and maintained byAbes. However, each institution is responsible for adapting the style sheet (CSS) of its custom interface.
