Navigating our Archive:
The boxes below named things like "Government" Research, Events, etc" are our Root Collections! They are the overall largest topic that encompass everything within them. Clicking on a collection will bring you to the next page, and you will see some words near the top of the page under "Sub-Collections", these are just further refinements of topics and classification. Clicking on any of them will bring you within that sub-collection and you may start to see some images on the screen labelled "Items". Items are where the "Meat and Potatoes" are for the archive. Clicking on an item will show you all the "media" that is contained within it. Media can range from things like videos, all the way to spreadsheets. It's the database's word for "files" basically. Some "items" may have one or 2 "media" inside, some much more, but you can click and scroll through them, and open them up to get the full view with just a click.
