Hi Nicole In addition to all the great suggestions on the listserv, I wanted to let you know that we are launching a new open source collection management system later this year. Madrona Community will be a powerful free collection management system with no limitations. You can find out more information here if you are interested: http://www.madronapro.com/.
Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers, David At 12:26 PM 9/28/2009, you wrote: >Hello, >I'm researching open source content management systems/databases for a >collection of objects.
