Summary/Abstract: For some archivists even nowadays, the subject of archival information system or database can be too abstract. In simpler words, this paper advocates use of such system or software – one that acts as a virtual Guide to archival fonds and collections, including all archives (archival institutions) in Bosnia and Herzegovina. By using (ICA) AtoM software, we will be able to, instead of using paper informational aids, get the information we seek with simple online search: names of fonds, their location, history of fond, institution details, etc. along with approprate links between them.This is a neccessity in modern archival science. Today's user is entitled to use such databases, and he expects to have this information easily available. By using open source software and putting some extra effort, we can respond adequately to challenges that we face in providing neccessary information to our users.
