The contact area contains fields conveying information "on how to contact the institution with archival holdings" (ISDIAH 4.4).
1. Contact information
- This is a multi-value field for registering and displaying the institution's contact information.
- Enter the data (see steps 2-4 below); when you save the record the contact address will be registered and will now appear in the list above the data entry fields.
