The Syracuse University Special Collections Research Center is using CONTENTdm for photographs. We in the Archives have used it only for playbills so far (with a few scattered photos done as tests).

Hello, We have a very large historical photograph collection. To save wear and tear on the physical prints and negatives, we want to digitize a portion of these images and create an internal database. Our Corporate Archives staff is looking at CONTENTdm as the software package to manage such a collection. Our IT department has asked us to look at Stellent. I know that CONTENTdm is being used by many public and university/college libraries for this purpose. I do not have any frame of reference for Stellent. Is there anyone in the archive community that is using either one of these software packages for photograph databases? I would appreciate feedback on both pros and cons! Kind Regards, Nicole Nicole Thaxton Corporate Archivist Caterpillar Inc. 100 NE Adams Peoria, IL 61629-7120 309/675-5869 [log in to unmask] A posting from the Archives & Archivists LISTSERV List sponsored by the Society of American Archivists, www.archivists.org.
