ArchivEra
ArchivEra is Lucidea’s feature-rich Collections Management Solution, developed to make archives accessible in ways that go far beyond traditional methods. It embodies best-practice collections management gained over 20 years of supporting archives clients, and is purpose-built for archivists tackling today’s collections management challenges and preparing for tomorrow.
