Building a Digital Museum: Opportunities for Scholarship and Learning
Most students and researchers of the theatre arts would seize the chance to stroll through a virtual museum featuring work by one of the world’s most prolific producers of scenic, costume, and lighting designs. That was the vision presented to Furman University when they were given the extraordinary opportunity to digitize the life’s work of renowned New York theatre designer, producer, painter, sculptor, and photographer Peter Wexler. The opportunity also presented a challenge. For a small staff at a liberal arts college, developing a strategy to digitally archive more than 6,000 artifacts within a tight timeframe could be daunting. Before converting the first item into digital format, consideration had to be given to how the collection might be used for teaching and scholarship. Furman’s Digital Collections Center is tackling this challenge as they document the creative process from preliminary sketches to final productions. In their presentation for NITLE Shared Academics, Furman University’s James B. Duke Library colleagues Rick Jones, manager of the Digital Collections Center, and Christy Allen, assistant director for Discovery Services, detailed the strategy and process of digitizing Peter Wexler’s work and how they prepared for the ways in which it will support teaching and scholarship.
