Peru's Archivo General de la Nación announced in June 2022 that it was preparing the installation of AtoM and intended to migrate documentary fonds managed in Archidoc, beginning with the Colección Santa María. The institution described a phased process involving bulk transfer of archival descriptions and incorporation of the collection's digital objects. It selected AtoM to publish fonds online, work with the International Council on Archives' descriptive standards and avoid annual licence costs. The AGN also planned to distribute a preconfigured virtual-machine installer to institutions needing help adopting the software. Its populated Repositorio Histórico Digital now demonstrates operational use. The available evidence establishes implementation and an announced Archidoc migration path, but it does not prove that Archidoc was completely replaced or that every AGN holding was transferred.
