CuadraSTAR

What CuadraSTAR is

CuadraSTAR is the core technology behind information-management solutions for libraries, information centers, archives, museums, records centers, and publishing organizations. It handles structured and unstructured information through input, indexing, retrieval, output, and security functions. New or changed records are indexed automatically and become searchable immediately. Users can search full text or specific fields, view results in multiple formats, choose from hundreds of predefined reports, or build their own. Programming interfaces connect CuadraSTAR data with multi-application and multi-platform environments. Its specialized products include STAR Knowledge Center for Archives, which supports expandable collection hierarchies, EAD finding aids, secure public access, statistics, and image, audio, video, PDF, and Word materials. STAR/Museums covers accessioning through deaccessioning, while STAR/RIMS manages records inventories, retention, requests, circulation, workflows, and permissions. The web-based library edition includes an OPAC, MARC cataloging, workflows, and CSV, MARC, text, and PDF exports. Lucidea describes daily backups, monitoring, authentication controls, single sign-on support, and 99.5% quarterly uptime.
