Like many others recently I came across Koha as a result of the article in February 2003 Linux Journal. Whilst I have library catalogue issues with all the books, journals, papers, CDs, CD-ROMs, DVDs, videos and such in my study (aka home) the article was more of a provocation to thinking about other applications. A similar market sector to library automation is museum inventory systems; they're not identical but enough synergy exists that many of the proprietary library systems have museum modules. Also there is additional stimulus as my wife works for one the national museums here in Great Britain. The stories she tells me of the inflexibilty of their in-house system would turn your stomach. So since the publication of the LJ paper I've been musing on how Koha might be used as a base for a museum system. For the last 30 years my role has been programmer/consultant of text retrieval systems. A cross industry product that I've deployed in research libraries and museums. Including a recent bid to a museum-come-library for cataloguing and loan management of a non-book collection. Wonder whether there is any interest from others in such a museums module?
