Concordance (archiving)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In archives, concordance is a sorted list of (mostly technical, not content-related) references as an aid to locating archive material , usually in the appendix to a repertory .

As a rule, concordances are structured in two columns and - in contrast to an index - refer, for example, from the signature to the serial number (position in the repertory) or from an obsolete to the current signature.
