NEWFIELDS WILL CONDUCT A MULTI-YEAR PROJECT TO REDESIGN AND EXPAND ITS ONLINE ART AND HISTORICAL COLLECTIONS INTO A SINGLE, INTEGRATED COLLECTIONS PORTAL. IN ADDITION TO THE DELIVERY OF ART COLLECTION DATA AND ASSETS, THE INTEGRATED COLLECTIONS PORTAL WILL SERVE AS AN ACCESS POINT TO ARCHIVAL COLLECTION DESCRIPTIONS, ITEM-LEVEL INFORMATION, AND DIGITIZED RECORDS RELATING TO NEWFIELDS' HISTORIC PROPERTIES AND THE INDIANAPOLIS MUSEUM OF ART'S 138-YEAR HISTORY. THIS PROJECT WILL SUPPORT TWO FULL-TIME POSITIONS, A DIGITIZATION AND METADATA SPECIALIST AND A RIGHTS RESEARCHER, AS WELL AS A USER TESTING CONTRACTOR WHO, ALONG WITH A CROSS-DEPARTMENTAL MUSEUM TEAM, WILL DEVELOP, PUBLICIZE, AND LAUNCH THE NEW INTEGRATED COLLECTIONS PORTAL. THE RESULTING PORTAL WITH OPEN-ACCESS INFRASTRUCTURE WILL MAKE NEWFIELDS' RESOURCES MORE WIDELY AVAILABLE TO RESEARCHERS AND THE PUBLIC.
