Dear All, (Apologies for duplication MCN/MCG subscribers) I am hoping you can help me find what I would in short describe as an inspirational (digital) archive. Models for us to follow. I am referring to the kind of resource that will facilitate both novice and expert users in discovering resources. Too often, I have seen archives rely on in-depth knowledge on the part of the user, to come up with precise terms that happen to coincide with keywords or descriptions. I understand taxonomy and tagging have roles to play that can help here, but what's being used to good effect now? Furthermore, the resource should allow browsing as a way of discovering/honing-in on areas of interest. Art world archives would be ideal, but any state-of-the-art resource will do. I checked back through the last few months of my mailings, and aside from conference invitations that sound pretty exciting, did not find what I'm looking for. Many thanks. -- - Ray Ray Shah think design, inc. retail museum education software development open source tel: 212.922.0952 x212 mobile: 917.476.0952 web: http://www.thinkdesign.com email: [log in to unmask] ************************************************** For mcg information and to manage your subscription to the list, visit the website at http://www.museumscomputergroup.org.uk **************************************************
