[MCN-L] Cleaning policies for mobile devices

2013-07-02 Thread Jesse Heinzen
Does anyone have recommendations for cleaning museum-provided mobile devices in 
between users?  We will be providing 120 iPod Touch devices to school groups 
for a new program this fall. Any advice on peoples' policies or experience with 
this would be helpful.

Thanks,
Jesse

[MCN-L] Digital collections data hackathon at Maker Faire Detroit this month

2013-07-02 Thread Ellice Engdahl
Here's a collections data experiment The Henry Ford, in partnership with 
Compuware, is trying this month--a one-day on-site hackathon using our 
digitized collections assets accessed via SQL database/APIs.  It's happening 
during Maker Faire Detroit 2013.

Would love to have any developers in the area come on down and give it a try!
