TypeUniversity special collection

The Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana's Cuajimalpa unit operates a populated AtoM catalogue for the personal archive of journalist Miguel Ángel Granados Chapa. The family placed the collection with the university in 2023, after which staff began review, classification, cataloguing and digitisation. Although the AtoM service still displays the software's default welcome text, its underlying catalogue contains many thousands of hierarchical descriptions and digital access copies, with records documenting digitisation dates, archival classification, descriptive status and downloadable PDF and image files. The live records establish a substantive operational adoption rather than an empty installation. Available sources do not identify a predecessor database, the initial AtoM launch date or a formal migration process, so no such claims are made.
