Dear Colleagues.
I am currently working with funding from the non-profit Artstor to conduct a short survey on the current state of digital asset management "DAM" in museums. The purpose of this research is two-fold; 1) to develop and share a profile of DAM in museums today and; 2) to research the relevancy of Artstor's media management software Shared Shelf program in relation to museum DAM needs.
The results of research survey will be shared with all participants who provide their email addresses after completing the survey and will also be presented during a session at the Museum Computer Network conference this Fall (http://wired.ivvy.com/event/MCN13/agenda).
The survey contains between 15-22 questions (depending upon your responses), is organized into 5 sections and should take under 15 minutes to complete. Because of the somewhat ubiquitous nature of digital asset management, the survey is targeted at anyone who shares any knowledge or ownership of the process including librarians, visual resource specialists, photographers, registrars, new media and publications managers, information technologists and others. If you feel there is someone better suited to responding, please forward it to them.
The deadline for completing the survey is Friday, November 1st.
I would greatly appreciate your input and look forward to sharing the overall findings with you.
The survey can be accessed at http://sandboxstudios.org/dams
Many thanks in advance,
Scott Sayre Ed.D.
