Speaking of open source tools for museum collections, have people seen
Recollection from the Library of Congress? It's "a web application
that enables librarians, archivists, curators, and historians to

There's a non-technical description of what it's designed to do at
'Recollection: A Collaborative Tool For Sharing And Visualizing
