ABSTRACT
The Archives Départementales de la Côte-d’Or chose as a priority for its automation plan the acquisition of a search engine, to publish online archival descriptions and the library catalogue. The Archives deliberately opted for a practical approach, using for the encoding of the finding aids an automatic data export from an archival 172management system and for their publishing commercial software, selected on the basis of simplicity of use and efficiency rather than flexibility.
