History Trust of South Australia Our first year with EMu

Two stuffed Emu chicks

Two stuffed EMu chicks

Our journey begins

Four divisions Migration Museum

Four divisions South Australian Maritime Museum

Four divisions National Motor Museum

Four divisions Community History Unit

19 databases

No dedicated IT personnel

…only curators

…and the curators were busy

EMu committee hard at work

and four were to become one

Nick cracked the whip

…and curators jumped

Although we felt like making this kind of jump

Mapping hell

First load

Second load

Go live

…four divisions: four healthy EMu chicks – a bit ugly but on their way…

And what does the future hold?

More of this?

Or more of this?

KE EMu has given us a powerful collection management tool

But are we competent to use it?

But we don’t necessarily know what we don’t know

KE support people have been great

What might help us?

Our future: a happy, healthy adult Emu
