Hello all and Happy New Year to you!

I'm forwarding this message on behalf of Cheryl Siegel at the Vancouver
Art Gallery.  I'm a librarian coordinating the project to set up a
database for all of the Gallery's exhibitions from its beginnings on.

If you have had experience setting up a similar kind of database or
know of one that I can look at to give me some ideas for screen
display, type of information, etc., your assistance and/or comments would
be greatly appreciated. You can contact me off list or e-mail Cheryl
directly at the address at the end of the message.

Thanks a lot for any and all assistance!

Moira Steven

Dear colleagues,

We are about to begin work on a data base  charting the history of
exhibitions at our gallery and the artists involved in them - as well as
some bibliographical, biographical and archival information.  We will be
using STAR software and , eventually, mounting this on our web page.  I am
extremely interested in seeing any existing exhibition databases from
Museums and Art Gallerys.  Can you point me to any?

Many thanks,

Cheryl Siegel
