- Motivation
The Social Networks Archival Context project comes out of the archival community. This project is an aggregator of biographical information about people who are documented in archival resources. Individuals are assigned unique IDs and then links to archival material across different institutions are presented for the individual. This could be a great complement to the number of external IDs we have for people who have published works because it focuses on people documented in archives.
