[MCN-L] managing library collections in museums

[Emma Jones]

HI all
I am wondering how many of you in MCN land also manage a library collection at 
your museum. The Australian War Memorial has a library which is used by the 
staff and public and is housed in our research centre. There are 100,00+ items 
in the library collection, including books, maps, sheet music and aerial 
photographs. The questions I have are

1)  How to you manage the collection? Do you use a LMS, CMS or something 
different?

2)  If you use a CMS and an LMS, why?

3)  Do any of you manage a library collection of a similar size in your 
CMS? How did you go with things like cataloguing in MARC and applying other 
library standards to your CMS?

4)  If you do use a CMS to manage your library collection, which modules do 
you use?

5)  Do you upload or download records/ contribute to something like 
Worldcat or LoC?a
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Em
