Summary/Abstract: Possession of adequate IT equipment and systems in archives, which are used for digitization and long-term preservation of archival material, is a basic assumption for the computerization of the archives. Archives must have prescribed archival standards and standards and appropriate professional staff that will handle IT equipment and systems. Under IT equipment, we mean hardware and software equipment and servers on which records are stored and protected in the long-term and enables its easier use. The use of IT equipment and systems begins with acquirement of archival material in the archive, its processing, then scanning and transferring to electronic form, then digitizing it, microfilming and placing them on appropriate IT equipment and systems for long-term storage. By developing a system for the digitization of archival material, technical preconditions for more economical and secure storage and use of archival material have been created. The ultimate goal of the archive on the path of informatization is to have the appropriate IT equipment and systems and their connection with the ICA-AToM server and the construction of the archive information system. In this regard, the authors are trying to present the information technology and systems that the archives in Bosnia and Herzegovina have with the accent on the Archive of the Tuzla Canton. Also, on the example of the Tuzla Canton Archives will be presented a module that can be used to establish computerization in archives in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
