Archives Florida is a growing database of finding aids (guides and inventories) to collections held by archives in Florida. Any archive, library, historical society, museum or similar agency in Florida with archival collections is eligible to contribute finding aids to Archives Florida if the finding aids adhere to the EAD standard and follow the Statewide EAD Best Practice Guidelines. Archives Florida grew from a grant-funded initiative named Opening Archives: Improving Access to Primary Sources in Florida. In 2006, a grant from the State Library and Archives of Florida supported four regional workshops that trained more than 80 people from 40 organizations.
