Topic: NARA Online
On December 27th the National Archives and Records Administration launched a new portal to make its growing online catalog of more than 13 million records more easily accessible. NARA's Online Public Access Web site http://www.archives.gov/research/search/ makes searching the Archives' holdings much easier and more straightforward because it brings together three disparate databases and returns results that include all relevant information.

NARA implemented a search engine to crawl the Archives.gov, Archival Research Catalog and Access to Archival Databases. The results include all the contextual information of the records including date, type of material (whether picture or document or movie) and the physical location of the material. Users can click on the picture or movie and view it right there on the screen.
