New Jersey Department of State (New Jersey State Museum)

The New Jersey State Museum (NJSM) will complete the second year of a three-year plan to improve the current functionality and future accessibility of its collections management database. The NJSM's collection holdings are comprised of over 2.6 million specimens, artifacts, and objects. Given the size and variety of the NJSM's holdings, the need for a fully functional database is critical to its collection, exhibition, research and interpretive uses of these artifacts. Through the project, NJSM will correct existing errors, expand the information in the digital records, and share this object data in both traditional and newer web-based ways.
