Hello All,
I am interning at a small history museum in Idaho Springs, Colorado. One of
my first tasks for the summer is to find a reasonably priced, easy to
navigate, desktop/hard drive based collection management software for their
collection, which consists of approximately 3000 photos/glass negatives,
approximately 50 textile pieces, the archive from the town paper, the
archive of the city records, miscellaneous minerals, and mining and ski
industry equipment. They do not have a server or network capabilities, so
this will have to be a system that can operate on a single laptop computer
to be transported between their visitor center museum and the living history
museum downtown, without multiple licensing agreements, and ease of use for
the mostly volunteer staff to transfer all their paper accession records to.

I would love to hear your suggestions!

Thanks,
Rachel Hawthorn
Idaho Springs Historical Society
