Abstract
Attendees will get a chance to tour the landmark traveling exhibition Secrets of the Silk Road. The Digital Media Developers at the Penn Museum will also discuss the challenges and opportunities they faced in developing iPod Touch tours for this exhibition as well as the the development of the website and integration of social media.
Recently, the Penn Museum upgraded their collections database system from Argus to KE-Emu which will soon be searchable online. A representative from the Registrar’s Office will speak about the development of the collections database and building the web component.
