I got the following message from an email newsletter list I'm on called the Resource Shelf http://www.resourceshelf.com
"If you ever used the Access to Archival Databases (AAD) from the National Archives of the U.S. before you know that you had to search one database at a time. Well, that's changed. It's another example of meta or federated searching coming to life. The revamped Access to Archival Databases site http://aad.archives.gov/aad/ allows the public to search for free through 85 million documents in 475 files amassed by more than 30 federal agencies.It features global free-text searching across all series and files, in addition to the standard fielded search, and easier and faster ways to find the series and files you want."
