Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire Archives use the CALM 7.2 document management software for Archives.

Our online searchable database contains over 100,000 catalogue entries, including:

• all parish records held at Cambridgeshire Archives
• all parish records held at Huntingdonshire Archives
• many other lists of documents.

The online database is automatically updated each night with information from the staff database. This means that when a new catalogue is completed, the public can access it with the minimum of delay.

We are also using CALM to control our document management during preparation for the Big Move.

If you would like to know more about the Archives Service's CALM project, or would like to be kept up-to-date with progress, please contact Alan Akeroyd of the FSB Scanning Bureau, using the email link in the right-hand menu.

We occasionally ask for volunteers to help us edit records in the database. We have enough volunteers at present, but please look back at this page from time to time, to see whether new opportunities have arisen.

Browser compatibility issues

The online database works best with Internet Explorer, which is the browser used by Cambridgeshire County Council and its IT Department. There are some page layout problems in Firefox, but the actual information still appears, even if it is not immediately apparent.
