Dear CollectionSpace team, I'm happy to inform you that the Mellon Foundation Board has just approved a nine month bridge grant for the CollectionSpace project for the period of January 1 - September 30 2012. These funds allow us to continue to refine the software, initiate two trials of CollectionSpace as a hosted service, and engage in a business/strategic planning process that will put CollectionSpace on the path toward sustainability. I am deeply grateful to all of you for your continued contributions to the project. This could not have happened without your hard work. Best, Carl __________________________________ Carl Goodman Executive Director MUSEUM OF THE MOVING IMAGE 36-01 35 Avenue, Astoria, NY 11106 movingimage.us 718 777 6800
