This was posted for others by me. Holly Trimper [log in to unmask] POSTING: The National Trust of Australia is currently investigating the feasibility of marketing its historic properties and collections through the application of multimedia technology. The National Trust has properties and collections throughout Australia. In New South Wales alone, it owns some 17 properties and a collection of over 30,000 items of furniture, paintings, prints, drawings, photographs, sculpture, household items, textiles, decorative arts and other objects. We envisage a CD Rom on display in the public entrance of Trust headquarters which would provide a brief introduction to some of the Trust's properties and particular items in its collection. I am keen to make contact with any institutions which have successfully produced and marketed such a product. I am particularly interested in locating an institution which has an historic house focus and which has a collection similar to ours in size and diversity. Can anybody help?
