Hi Scott, We are intending to develop a 'Collection Information Strategy' later this year. It will probably cover similar ground as TMS is playing an increasingly significant role in our collection information provision. We are just about to develop a plan for achieving this and will be very interested to hear how other museums have done it.

If any of you are developing or using such a document, would you be willing to share it or portions of it with me?
