  • Online Archive. I am in the middle of installing Archon, an "Online Archival Information System," on this server. Once it's up and running, I will load the catalog information for collections of papers currently in the Pocahontas County Historical Society's archive. The next steps will be digitizing those materials, uploading them to the Web, and linking them to the catalog entries. In the meantime, if you'd like to see another collection using Archon, check out The Sousa Archives and Center for American Music at the University of Illinois Archives.
  • Content Management System for Pocahontas County History. Once this is in place, site visitors will be able to become active participants by registering as users. "Users" will be able to post comments, contribute to forums, and upload text and images. You'll be able to show us your pictures and tell us your stories, as well as viewing and reading ours.
