Phoebe A Hearst Museum of Anthropology

A group of iSchool students did a final project last spring called Delphi aimed at developing a web-based browser for access to the Hearst Museum's collection and improving the collection's visibility. A member of last year's project team who took 214 suggested that continuing this work would make a good 214 project. The museum staff is enthusiastic about continuing this project; they have been working on web-based access as a high priority. We will consult further with them about what they need and what's possible.

This was a really great project, and I'd love to help further it. If your interest is piqued, please leave a comment here or email me: alana@ischool.berkeley....
