Hello, I hope this is the right forum to ask this question. We have about a thousand GIS-related CDROMs now (satellite images, maps, and photos) and are accumulating/creating them at a rate of 20-30 per week. Given that may of you are/may be developing digital GIS libraries for your patrons, has anyone thoughts on ideal archiving furniture (stands, cabinets, shelves, or some such) and vendor recommendations for storage and easy access for these data? What software programs are you using to create databases for these media? Is there a chart which compares these softare? Please advise, and I will sum. Thanks.
