[Collections]Advantages of Online Collection Access
If your museum's goals involve educating, informing, and engaging the public, an online collections database is an indispensable tool. Here are just a few of the reasons why public access is quickly becoming a necessity for all collecting organizations.
1. Free up Staff Time - Online access to the collections allows the public to do the basic groundwork before contacting the museum. This will free up staff time to process reproduction requests instead of spending time doing all of the research.
2. Unlimited Display Space - Exhibiting all of the items in your collection may not be possible due to physical space, conservation, and maintenance issues. Sharing collections online gives you unlimited display space, no matter how large or fragile your items are.
3. 24/7 Access - Your online site is always open, providing a new level of convenience to researchers. You'll empower visitors to search for what interests them, anytime and anywhere.
4. Expanded Audience - Researchers can find your collections through search engines like Google, allowing visitors from around the world to be a part of your audience. Your artifacts become the billboard for promoting your organization.
5. Join a Community - Data repositories such as DPLA are quickly becoming common place. Having your collections accessible online is the first step towards participation. Once indexed, you open your collection up to an even bigger audience.
Over 800 organizations are currently sharing access to their collections with PastPerfect Online<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0015Nz5ZG42J9XznOLGbNH7iZgL0eIXbqBs3bn9EeUxVKkmEMtz-wtL670FU3jJV-A93LGpl4FL3rQb-FUi2V4vWl81jCkbz9nDjC6WHh8_BHx_1dUrzKR2HvpdaoVPra0lTrKSActEaI1KqERXbknjcPh7wv-yzDkNrnIfA2cV-rxD2lN4yaFHFg==&c=l6ncCM2kw_gU1vTqB5g2QBUXVazzLUpu7DKjKC4RY2niLDJ3_nW_Bg==&ch=0X0EwWf8lNkrIIAZ4MqOhA0L5WImU0Faj1IZ5TnyYGG9qnkZ3dxIkQ==>.

We've started a series to highlight these items and share them with the museum community. This contribution comes from Steve Jajkowski, Archivist, at the Museum of Broadcast Communications.
"As the Midwest's only major radio and television institution, the Museum of Broadcast Communications in downtown Chicago is an experience of broadcasting history and wonder with an archive of nearly 100,000 hours of programming including more than 10,000 commercials dating back to the 1950s. The MBC also has on display many broadcast artifacts including one of the cameras that telecast the first of four televised presidential debates between then Senator John F. Kennedy and then vice-president Richard M. Nixon. The camera, designated Camera #2, is a RCA TK-11, a black and white unit that focused on Kennedy during their first debate in Studio 2 of WBBM-TV on September 26, 1960. While three other debates were scheduled in other cities, the first is referred to as 'The Great Debate' and to many viewers, the decision maker for the next president."
Thank you to the Museum of Broadcast Communications<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0015Nz5ZG42J9XznOLGbNH7iZgL0eIXbqBs3bn9EeUxVKkmEMtz-wtL656XiyBZfi9qsK2uKQPKDPRpxVFLcZjF5pSRb3NqMdf1L9SqQi6IUp3dgs0y2kvtHLQM5O2Rf_587F5ueJCrEaha97a0GgI3XAvO_eNnCNK1j0OjRMY3qwKF-mq8etH65VWXpO4zPRql&c=l6ncCM2kw_gU1vTqB5g2QBUXVazzLUpu7DKjKC4RY2niLDJ3_nW_Bg==&ch=0X0EwWf8lNkrIIAZ4MqOhA0L5WImU0Faj1IZ5TnyYGG9qnkZ3dxIkQ==> for sharing your collection online!
