Adam,

Oddly enough, I'm evaluating tools and DAM's this week.  I charted the 
Open Source ones that looked possible,  I don't know how this is going to 
come through on email, but this is what I've got:

These are just the preliminary things I was looking at, but in the process 
of getting the chart filled in.  I'm leaning towards Omeka (there's a good 
article on it in D-Lib, 
http://www.dlib.org/dlib/march10/kucsma/03kucsma.html this month), or 
CollectiveAccess.  They look like they will require the least amount of 
work getting it set up, and I'm already familiar with PHP/MySQL. :-)
(Includes Rep == includes repository)

Hope this helps a little. :-)

Ethan,

Thanks, yes, I did take a look at this.  I have to pick my battles here. A 
discovery interface is one of the things that we could buy "off the shelf" 
and get a lot of good mileage out of.  I'm devoted to open source and I 
would love nothing more than to roll our own with Blacklight, but that's 
more work on top of the DAM issue.  I chose not to delve into the 
Blacklight option to save myself more time to focus on the asset manager 
issue, which is where I *think* I'll be having to work the most.

Of course, I'm open to suggestions.  Does anyone think it's easier to do 
your own discovery layer than a DAM? Potentially, the money we save not 
buying a discovery layer could go towards buying a DAM.  However, the 
products we're looking have some really great interfaces.  I think I'd be 
looking at an equally difficult challenge trying to emulate some of those 
features on my own.

thoughts?

Instead of purchasing a discovery system, I recommend using
blacklight<http://projectblacklight.org/>
