Social Documentation
,----[ Quote ]
| The new MAA Documentation System combines open-source technologies with deep
| social computing principles to create a truly innovative approach to museum
| documentation. The new MAA Documentation System shifts the age-old
| documentation principles of standardized description and information
| accumulation to multi-vocal and multi-source accounts and distributed
| documentation.
|
| For the past few years, the MAA has been developing an open-source
| Documentation System. With over 20 years experience of developing its own
| Documentation Systems and Collections Management Systems, the MAA is just
| about to finish one of the most ambitious upgrades of its history. In fact,
| this system is the result of a complete re-think of its documentation
| practices. Thought the new system takes account of documentation standards,
| such as SPECTRUM, and newer developments such as CollectionSpace, it differs
| from the traditional approaches is several key respects.
