We use TMS for Collections Management and Media Bin for DAMS. We do a nightly one way synch of metadata from TMS to Media Bin. We are working on linking the images back to TMS with some insight from our colleagues at the Met. We are always willing to share our experiences; the good, the bad and the ugly. Over 40% of our office and professional staff have used Media Bin in the last year.. John John R.

>>> "Williams, Keith" <Keith.Williams at phxart.org> 7/9/2008 2:01 PM >>> Hello- I am the Information Systems Manager for the Phoenix Art Museum and we are currently using Argus as our Collection Management System (CMS). We are planning to upgrade soon to TMS as our CMS. With this, we are also looking into a Digital Asset Management System (DAMS) that will speak with relative ease with TMS. I was curious as to what other Museums that are using TMS as their CMS use as their DAMS and what their experiences have been with whatever DAMS they currently use. Thank you, Keith Williams Information Systems Manager PHOENIX ART MUSEUM 1625 NORTH CENTRAL AVENUE / PHOENIX / AZ / 85004 TEL (602) 307-2056 / PHXART.ORG ______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l at mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l
