[Sca-librarians] V&A Museum access to images]

[Johnna Holloway]

Oh wow, what a time sink!
Two hours later after much playing around
But at least it came up before Known World Costuming
so I can refer to it on Saturday in my lecture.

I think it works better if you know the collection
and can work the search into known items. Searching
for Mary Queen of Scots turns up those needlework pieces faster
than going through the basic needlework search.
Guillane and I saw this in action at the museum when I was there
in person in April. Glad it's up.

Pretty cool anyway--
