Click on a Block to view its Example.

Division of Anthropology disseminates information regarding its collections to as wide and varied an audience as possible through a variety of media. Its Collection Management System available on the Web (section COLLECTIONS ONLINE) provides a hub of information that brings together images, detailed description, photographs, publication and exhibition history of objects through a single interface.

Note: Bi-directional arrows between blocks on the diagram show that information about central entity (Objects) is accessible from another entities (Publications, Photographs, and Exhibitions).
Thus related Objects can be viewed while browsing Exhibitions, Publications, and Photographs [Example], and vice versa: related Exhibitions, Publications, and Photographs can be viewed while browsing Objects [Example].

AnthroDaily is a gadget/widget that presents a different object every day from the Anthropology Division's ethnographic collections (the same one as on its home page) and links to the Anthropology Division's website.
