Dear Colleagues,
Is your institution considering the use of Smart Labels? If so, in what capacity - to assist with large scale movement of collections? To make it easier for museum staff working with objects to track movement from store room to curatorial office to gallery? No matter what the proposed use Smart Labels are now much more affordable and can be considered a viable option for use in museums.
The CIMI Consortium has recently been discussing the need for a standard related to the constructive use of the space currently available to hold descriptive and administrative content on the Smart Label Chip. Towards that end, CIMI members ADLIB Information Systems and the Rijksmuseum have authored a proposal that is currently available from the CIMI web site at http://www.cimi.org/public_docs/Smart_Label_Comment.html
We are interested in your comments. Details about submitting comments are included in the proposal.
The comment period will remain open through April 6th. A final version of the standard will be published in June.
Thanks for your thoughts!
Angela
