yes, we are three who deals with images here ... but we used the "bulk-image-insertion-plugin" as well for almost 6 000 images ________________________________ Från: The Museum System (TMS) Users [mailto:[log in to unmask]] För Sarah Evans Skickat: den 11 januari 2006 16:45 Till: [log in to unmask] Ämne: Re: images again Well this is a bit more specific. 14,000 images.

This is due to two factors. 1) The National Galley collection is small; only 2301 objects, mostly paintings. 2) In the 1990s the Gallery's Scientific Dept participated in a European Union project (the MARC Project) to develop a format for capturing very high quality digital images of art works. In 2001 our Photographic Dept used the MARC technology to digitise the whole collection. Since then they have managed the creation and dissemination of derivatives from these master images for an increasing number of Gallery purposes (e.g. separate tailored sets of JPG format derivatives for public-facing systems such as the website, interactive kiosks and the 'print-on-demand' retail system). TMS displays JPEG derivatives; the master images are catalogued in a separate Photographic Dept database that was developed in-house and is integrated with TMS. Scientific Dept continue to research image technology and to find new ways of applying and extending the uses of the MARC master images.

My Museum has just over one-third with images. Is this on par with others? Are there museums out there with 100% image representation, and if so, how did you accomplish that?
