I was having a conversation today with the curator of a local historic house and garden. Her institution is prepping to write a RFP for an automated system. While I am capable of assisting her with some of her planning (dec arts, library and archival collections management), she would also like to be able to catalog their garden and botantical collections! She is hoping that there is a system out there that can handle objects and MARC records that will also have a module for botanical collections. If not, a separate standalone system or guidlines for creating one in-house would be useful. Can anyone help me point her in the right direction?
