Managing Photographs, Files and Other University
Assets -- An effort is under way to help Johns Hopkins
departments and offices have a way to manage photographs,
slides and virtually any other type of asset that can be
digitized.
A pilot program comprising users from academic
departments, libraries, administration and public affairs
offices is now testing a Web-based system for storing,
cataloging, sharing and teaching with a variety of
important files, from photographs and reports to pdfs and
spreadsheets.
If you think your office or department could benefit
from such a system, please contact Glenn Small at
glenn@jhu.edu or
410-516-7109. Participation is sought from all divisions
and campuses.
