Axiell (formerly DS), the market leader in UK public libraries and archives and part of the Axiell Library Group AB, announced that the City of Westminster (www.westminster.gov.uk) has moved to a fully managed service with its upgrade to Axiell’s fully web-based CalmView user interface to manage its archives collection. CalmView also offers internet access to its WestCat archives collection.

The archives collection’s extensive resources include books, pamphlets, directories, newspapers, journals, maps & plans, over 60,000 prints, drawings & photographs, local government records from 1460, electoral registers, census returns, parish registers, and business archives.

The City of Westminster is taking advantage of CalmView’s new easy-to-use configuration options to create their own image gallery which promotes access to their extensive image collection by pushing useful images directly to the public as they search.
