Museum Victoria (Melbourne, Australia) is currently undertaking a major collection inventory project. An important aspect of this project is the bar-coding of sections of our collection. The system we're using to capture the bar-code data is called Museum Victoria Wireless Input System for EMu (MVWISE). This is a mobile data input tool for the central collection management system we use - KeEMu (http://www.kesoftware.com/emu/index.html) .
MVWISE was developed internally at Museum Victoria as means of accessing KeEMu, in real time, in a mobile environment. MVWISE is not limited to use with bar-coding, or to inventory control, however that is our major focus at this stage. The system is also available for use by other institutions employing KeEMu. Further information regarding MVWISE, and a list of current clients, can obtained at http://mvwise.museum.vic.gov.au/. Please feel free to contact me directly with any further inquires about MVWISE, our collection inventory project or bar-coding implementation.
