Help & Community

For system technical support

Library Technology Services provides technical support for OASIS and Archivists' Toolkit operations. To ask a question or report a problem, send a comment to OIS:

If you are reporting a problem, please include as much detail as possible in your report. Include the EADID of the finding aid if this is relevant.

For help with archival practices; finding aid encoding

For questions about archival practices, including finding aid encoding, please consult the manuscripts and archives community at Harvard. There are several options:

  • Consult resources offered by the MAT Affinity group. Their isite is a place for the archives and manuscript community to share resources, templates, and tools for describing archival and manuscript collections at Harvard.
  • Ask your question on MADL (Manuscripts and Archives Discussion List). See the Harvard Library Lists page for a description of this list and subscription form.
  • Contact your local liaison for OASIS or Archivists' Toolkit about how EAD has been implemented at your repository.
