Summary/Abstract: In order to enable objective and scientific research of the causes, course and consequences of the Croatian Homeland War it is necessary to provide the availability of archives. One way to do this is certainly through the digitization of the archives. For that purpose - to store and search unconventional archives (documents, newspapers, photographs, maps and posters) from the period of the war, Database InArchive was created by the Croatian Homeland War Memorial and Documentation Centre and Inpro Company from Cakovec. Emphasis in the text will be on photo database - entry, description, search and use of digital photographies in compliance with copyright. The existing system can be upgraded and expanded by new functions depending on the needs of users, but also according to the demands of the archival profession.
