I found these resources to be for the serious researcher. The ArchiveGrid gives information about collections and where they are housed. I found this to be quite interesting, finding collections at various Universities. I also found information about archives--how to handle the archives, how they are arranged. For example the Hemingway collection at Princeton University has an index of items and is arranged by box and folder. For the serious researcher this database would provide very helpful information from what is available to where a researcher would have to travel to find it.
CAMIO looks like it would be awesome but unfortunately I was unable to access it from our school. I will have to look into how this is accessed to further complete this challenge.

Bingo, Marian the Librarian! ArchiveGrid is indeed for serious researchers willing to make field trips. This resource tells them what institution holds what. I am reporting your CAMIO woes, and we will try to get that fixed for you!
