Database selection
The goal of this project is to catalog and digitize each of the 1,780 slides within the Claire Holt collection. Microsoft Excel was selected as the application most suited to cataloguing requirements.

Image browser
After researching options available for creating and maintaining a widely-accessible virtual collection, Luna Imaging’s Insight® browsing software was selected as the most appropriate way to present the Claire Holt images over the Internet. Users will be able to view and search through images, create virtual exhibitions and conduct efficient research from their own desks, wherever they may reside. In the near future, the Insight® browser will also permit cross-collection searching, thus allowing users to compare Claire Holt images and associated cataloguing data with images in other collections across the country and the world.

The Claire Holt Project is funded
by a gift from Allen Boorstein '47.
