Dear David, Many thanks for this. Let's hope it becomes a de facto standard. I'm going to ask the museums of Surrey if they're happy to go this way. Some people are going to be confused by the presence of methodology-defined terms (archaeology), materials terms (costume and textiles), functional terms (health) and period terms (past societies), not realising that an excavated Viking bandage can and should appear under all those headings. Does cornocopia have plans to develop image links to the top levels? Best wishes, Pat David Dawson <[log in to unmask]>@JISCMAIL.AC.UK> on 17/04/2002 14:27:27 Please respond to Museums Computer Group <[log in to unmask]> Sent by: Museums Computer Group <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] cc: Subject: re Collections level Description Pat Try looking at the 'background' section of Cornucopia www.cornucopia.org.uk This is based on a lot of existing work and has been 'road-tested'! We are planning to extend this to cover museums across the country - so are currenty starting on the designated museums that aren't in the pilot areas of the SW and W Midlands.
