Archival institution in edit mode: all information areas collapsed

Archival institution descriptions are structured into information areas based on the ICA's International Standard for Describing Institutions with Archival Holdings (ISDIAH). This section describes how to add, edit, and delete archival institutions. The data entry pages listed below give detailed notes and explanations on every field included on the edit page; where there is a one-to-one correspondence between an ISDIAH data element and an ICA-AtoM field, the note typically just gives the ISDIAH rule verbatim.
