Dear Colleagues,
Apologies if you have caught this already, but I thought I'd bring your
attention to the article on the Museums Association website about the
new Collections Link Standards wiki (
http://standards.collectionslink.org.uk) and the work the Collections
Trust is doing to update Benchmarks in Collections Care and SPECTRUM.
The article is up on the MA homepage and at
http://www.museumsassociation.org/news/23032011-collections-trust-update
s-benchmarks-spectrum
In the case of Benchmarks, we are working to integrate digital assets
and information management into the existing range statements about
physical Collections Care, and we would really welcome comments on these
elements from the MCG community.
If you are interested in the next stages of the development of SPECTRUM
(which include the integration of procedures for Digitisation and
Photography), we are holding a Roadmap meeting on this at the
OpenCulture 2011 conference - http://tiny.cc/oc2011programme.
With best regards,
Nick
