Measurable Outcome(s)

The Roseau County Historical Society & Museum's project to transition to CollectiveAccess MN has achieved short-term progress with data migration, an online interface, and staff training. RCHS is working online presence for certain collection items, and the staff can update minor errors and build the collections database, enhancing access across Minnesota. As we reach mid-term achievements, staff continue to grow their proficiency with CollectiveAccess, working towards creating a network of shared information among history museums in the state.
