Dear MCN, I seem to recall that in the early 1990s a well-known art library began to collect information related to the history and practice of collections management and automation.
Does anyone on this list know of any such collection efforts? I would like to donate my accumulated materials rather than disposing of them. I have four or five boxes of such data including (among other works) Data Models Technical Reports (such as David Bearman's) Systems analyses and projects created for key museums Plans for image projects Advertisements and related ephemera Documentation of conferences and symposia Materials related to intellectual property issues. ...and much more. For those on this list who may not know me, I worked in this field for approximately fifteen years, until about the year 2000. If anyone thinks it useful, they are invited to consult my on-line CV, available <http://studiolo.org/cv.htm>HERE Feel free to send this notice to other workers in this field. /Robert A. Baron robert at studiolo.org
