HER databases provide a way of searching for sites by their location, period, type and other characteristics. HER record maps, both on paper and in GIS, are an excellent way of identifying sites and areas of interest. The databases provide an index to the files, books, reports, plans, sketches and photographs held by HERs. They also contain references to original archive material held in local record offices, information about sites held in other databases and sometimes references to objects held in local museums.

Many HERs have outreach programmes and take part each year in 'Heritage Open-Days' and the 'National Archaeology Days' organised by the Council for British Archaeology's (CBAs) [Young Archaeologists Club|http://www.britarch.ac.uk/yac/index.html] and other special events (see also [Archaeology Scotland|http://archaeologyscotland.org.uk/]). These days aim to promote public enjoyment of the historic environment. HER managers take part by preparing displays or giving presentations based on the information held in their databases and collections.
