Description

This article describes the development of a computerized collections management system at the POLA Museum of Art, which was inaugurated in 2002 in Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture. After presenting current conditions in Japanese museums, some of the motivations for developing a new collections management system are outlined. Major considerations are the importance of photographic reproductions in art history research, as well as the key role of collections documentation in various areas of museum work. The system allows repetitive information to be stored for future use and its digital images serve as a fundamental resource in the realization of all aims of the museum, from scholarly to educational.
