This is primarily directed at those attending Susan Jane Williams and my workshop, but others might be interested. As we were discussing a digital asset collection that served the whole museum, several good questions came up regarding just that. Many from IT felt that they had the assets regarding their physical collections well in hand, but were stymied as to how to approach the other creators of digital assets, such as graphics, promotional material and other ephemera.
