Colleagues,
Apologies for any cross-postings. Here at UConn we are currently in the process of reviewing the current landscape with regard to overall DAM system offerings, the services that they provide vs. perceived local needs, expectations with regard to their implementation, etc . As part of this local review, we are also interested in getting feedback from people in the larger cultural heritage community who have perhaps either travelled this road before us and already have a system in place or who are similarly in our shoes and have just begun to strategize. With our own ongoing digital asset creation at UConn, we feel that it is time to more clearly consider the better overall administrative management of such broadening content in a more automated and consolidated manner. Hence we've initiated an initial investigation and online survey that we invite you to participate in: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/HDG9M2Z (Estimated time to complete: approx. 15-20 minutes) The survey will remain open until August 31, 2010. We will post results via a report uploaded to our institutional repository, http://digitalcommons.uconn.edu/. Please note that in our report, personal information from the survey will not be revealed, and any comments used will remain unattributed. Feel free to forward the survey link to other relevant constituencies. Thank you, Michael ================================= Michael J.
