Integrating Library, Archives, and Museum Collections in an Open Source Information Management System: A Case Study at Glenstone

In 2012, Glenstone began searching for information management systems for the library, archives, and museum collections. After evaluating different proprietary products designed for individual departmental needs, Glenstone decided to adopt CollectiveAccess, a customizable open-source system designed to be interoperable across departments. By creating linked relationships between record entities, CollectiveAccess formed a seamless, integrated discovery platform for users. This article presents the librarian’s role and responsibilities in collaborating with the database development team, Whirl-i-Gig, and internal Glenstone departments to prepare for the museum’s innovative and unique information services platform.
