Accession Inventory

Processing Information

An accession inventory is a basic description of an archival collection for which a detailed finding aid has yet to be created. No attempt at intellectual arrangement has been made. The depth of description varies depending on the format of the materials and the amount of pre-existing description received when the materials were acquired. A collection might also be labeled an "Accession Inventory" if it is fully digital and the digital files have yet to be processed.
