Efficient collection management
with Custom Attributes

We were so lucky to have two members of the community present in this session. First, Jaime Frye, the Assistant Curator of Living Collections at Newfields held a presentation on how she just have embarked on using these fields for customization and was asking you, the community, for further advice and inspiration. She also shared a mistake she did and how to avoid it. Then, Alison Crook, the National Curator, Plant Collections at National Trust UK shared her extremely comprehensive (and impressive) use of the attributes for Accessions with tips on how to work with a multi-site collection.

Are you familiar with Custom Attributes in IrisBG?

Of the attendees, just 19 % were not familiar with the possibility to add their own fields to IrisBG and a whopping 62 % are already using them a lot. If you are amongst them who are not using them yet, we hope this Coffee Chat serves as inspiration to start using them. We have also updated our comprehensive tutorial on the topic.
