Hi Margaret,

like everybody else, I don't know anything about Voyager, but I do have an example of University Art Museum and Library collaboration. And of course it is my favorite example, because it is a project the Berkeley Art Museum is leading :-). Museums and the Online Archive of California (MOAC) provides fairly sophisticated integration of museum and library / archival collections through the use of various standards such as Encoded Archival Description (EAD), Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard (METS) and Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). The museum data gets integrated into a union database consisting of about 6000 collections from about 60 repositories (libraries, archives, museums) statewide. You can check out the project and its documentation at http://www.bampfa.berkeley.edu/moac/.

Cheers,
Guenter

Hello--

I was wondering if anyone working within a Museum collection has utilized
Voyager software to make their collections information accessible via the Web.
Any comments or info greatly appreciated!

And while I am at it, does anyone have any favorite examples of University
Museum and Library collections being linked so at least a basic search is done
across both collections?
Thanks!
