Hi Janine

At the St. Catharines Museum we are using TMS for both our Library and Archives Collections.  Our reference library uses the bibliographic module to capture a record of each book.  Rare books have records both in the bibliographic module and object module.  Archival collections are described in the object module using as close to a RAD description as we can within the framework of TMS.  If you would like to chat I could tell you more about it.
Hope this helps.

Hello fellow TMS users.

Is anyone using TMS for their library and archive collections?

I'd appreciate hearing from anyone using it for this purpose to see how they like it and how difficult it was to adapt to.

cheers,
