Painless Collection Management
Streamlined administration for your Collection Management System
Collection management systems are powerful tools for archivists, librarians, and collection managers alike, but to take full advantage of these systems we understand that administrators cannot be restricted by time consuming, complex managerial tasks.
Painless collection management is a core value of the Recollect platform, leading to our talented developers implementing an array of features to remove the complexity and stress from collection administration.
New features are constantly implemented into the Recollect platform, along with consistently enhanced existing functionality, to ensure the Recollect Collection Management System remains an industry leader. Below you’ll find a few of these highlighted features, providing your organization with a painless collection management experience.
Simple Uploads, Streamlined Edits
Uploading and editing your collections' records should be simple - Recollect makes sure it is.
From uploading a new collection with accompanying metadata, to making a series of simple item changes or applying bulk updates to thousands of records, our streamlined administrative processes allow collection managers to organize their digital archive with ease.
Simplifying the content management process means organizations can guarantee accuracy, ensuring both new and existing collections items are consistently providing their audience with correct information.
With ever-expanding collections and new information consistently available, Recollect makes sure you’re able to make the necessary changes to your collections, stress-free.
Custom Item Configuration
Follow an established metadata structure, or create your own.
Metadata is the key to creating a highly discoverable collection. Creating your own metadata structure for each record type ensures simple organization, provides contextual connections, and allows the freedom for you to comply to a pre-determined metadata structure or create a structure specific to your needs.
This unique feature of the Recollect platform ensures heritage material can be organized simply, new items can be easily categorized, and your organization can adapt their digital collection to your audience’s needs. Combining this flexible metadata standard with Recollect’s advanced discovery functionality, your collection will boast an industry-leading user experience for both administrators and your collections audience.
User Access Control and Role Management
Let your stakeholders, community, and public audience see what they need.
Managing a digital collection is not always a one-person operation.
By establishing administrators, editors, and if required, moderators, you can ensure the right people have relevant access to manage, view, edit, and administer the site. This role management is included with each tier of our subscription model, meaning you always have the right access required for the task.
We understand you may not want all your content publicly available. For these scenarios, our access control lists provide a high level of control over viewing restrictions. When your collections hold items restricted to a specific audience, access control lists allow administrators to determine which users are able to view which sites.
