Friends of the Arboretum Lecture
"Beyond Robust Records: Reaping the Rewards of an Accurate and Dynamic Database"
Christopher Todd Glenn, Programs and Education Coordinator
- Thursday, April 15, 2010 – 7:30 pm–9:00 pm
We have derived huge benefits from having an integrated database system that contains accurate information about both our plant and photograph collections. In this lecture, Chris is going to present a behind the scenes look at how we utilize this data to better educate our real and virtual visitors. Some of the uses presented in the lecture will include our Web site (Current Plantings, Now Showing, Showtimes, etc.), Plant Finder kiosk, engraved labels, among many others.
