We could do a tutorial onsite here, if you all are interested. Maybe
October?

YES!!!!! I've got the PastPerfect software (version 4) and have the add
on for posting on line - haven't had time to work with it.

Software (networked for up to 5 users) and online component was about
2350.0o. We joined AASLH to get a significant discount. Membership was
about $100.00 but it saved us over 1000.00. There are some quirks, but
overall, an easy and cost-effective way to get your materials out there.
And, lots of different component options - books, archives, art,
objects, multimedia (that's a separate package, which I don't think we
got), and there is additionally an option to purchase an online
exhibition program. We didn't do that.

p.s. - if folks are interested, or if others use PastPerfect or
something similar, this could be a good panel discussion for the group -
ways to get your materials out there and I would be willing to
participate.

Anna,



How much did it cost to be able to put it online?

We've had the software for about a month. We have two people on staff
working on it - 1 most of the time, and me some of the time, plus an
intern and a volunteer who work on it several hours a week. It's
involved, but easy enough to learn and there are shortcuts for batches
of info, which is super nice.

Cool! How long did it take to get to this point?

Hi all - we're in the process of putting our museum and art collections
online. This is the start of things, with thousands more to come. In
the meantime, if you think there's anything botanical or medical that
you might want to borrow, feel free to peruse.
