Demos:
View the same images and metadata (Highlights from the Vassar College Costume Collection) in several different applications. This has been an experiment to explore different tools for collection management, public searches, and virtual exhibitions. Each demo shows 8 objects from the collection, supported by a total of 43 jpeg images (including photos and scanned documents) and 1 QTVR. The demos are hosted temporarily on Vassar servers.
