Keith, while it's 18months old by now, I think the RLG DigiNews special issue on "Managing Digital Assets in US Museums" still has some quite valuable information on strategies at the National Gallery of Art, the Metropolitan Museum and the Center for Creative Photography at The University of Arizona in terms of DAMS. But of course I would think that since I edited it. :-)

We are planning to upgrade soon to TMS as our CMS. With this, we are also looking into a Digital Asset Management System (DAMS) that will speak with relative ease with TMS. I was curious as to what other Museums that are using TMS as their CMS use as their DAMS and what their experiences have been with whatever DAMS they currently use. Thank you, Keith Williams Information Systems Manager PHOENIX ART MUSEUM 1625 NORTH CENTRAL AVENUE / PHOENIX / AZ / 85004 TEL (602) 307-2056 / PHXART.ORG ______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l at mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l
