ISAD(G)

ISAD(G), which stands for the "General International Standard Archival Description," is a set of guidelines used by archivists to organize and describe archives and records consistently. It helps ensure that records from different sources are documented in a clear, structured way, making it easier for researchers and others to understand the context, content, and provenance of archival materials. Essentially, ISAD(G) creates a common framework for describing collections, promoting transparency, accessibility, and efficient management of archival information across institutions worldwide.
