Hello, Here at the Getty Museum, we use the Getty AAT as a reference tool and starting point for creating local thersauri that address our collections for our audiences. We use both Getty AAT and local thesauri for seaching. Amy >>> [log in to unmask] 03/18/03 08:29AM >>> Yes Dave, I have been receiving messages from the list serv. I have a question for the group. With our old system we used the term guide from the National Museum of American of American Art to assign subjects to our objects. When we converted to TMS the subjects were carried over but we think it might be easier to use the Getty's system. Has anyone switched from one to the other? Any thoughts? Thanks, Allyson Wray Curatorial Assistant/System Administrator BYU - Museum of Art
