Case Study: Trimontium Museum empowers global volunteers and catalogs 4,300+ artifacts with CatalogIt

Trimontium Museum catalogs 4,300+ artifacts with CatalogIt

The Trimontium Museum, dedicated to Roman and Iron Age history in Scotland, faced the challenge of cataloging its historic collections without a modern system. Relying on handwritten records and a global team of remote volunteers, the museum needed an affordable, cloud-based collections management solution. They turned to CatalogIt to meet this need.

By implementing CatalogIt's cloud-based system, the museum empowered its volunteers around the world to contribute remotely. This solution enabled the cataloging of over 4,300 artifacts, surpassing the project's goal, with volunteers creating approximately 20% of the entries. CatalogIt successfully bridged the distance for volunteers, making the collection more accessible for researchers and the public while centralizing the museum's holdings for the first time.
