At the London Transport Museum, we will shortly be putting more of our collections online, including a 6000 strong poster/artwork collection and a re-branded photographic collection consisting 15,000 images. Many existing Museum sites with online collections have a brochureware site and a link to one or more separate searchable collection resources - Many times the two are separate, often with different navigation. Has any out there successfully combined the two? Same navigation with deep access to collection materials. If so, how did you resolve potentially having two search boxes? Have Museums deliberately stayed away from this integration for technical reasons or usability reasons? I would be very interested if any one has any experience or evaluation to support integration of brochureware site & online collections or experience to support that the opposite is true.
