MDA Collections Link Shop Open For Business
MDA has announced the launch of an online shop on the Collections Link website.
The shop allows customers to browse products online and pay by credit card via the secure payment system. Currently for sale are MDA products including publications, multi-media resources and memberships, with other goods such as accession registers and manual documentation systems due to come online shortly. Products from other organisations from across the cultural sector will also become available over the coming months.
Peter Winsor, Collections Link Project Director commented, 'The online shop is a great way for Collections Link users to view and purchase MDA products, and is set to become an increasingly valuable resource as a much wider range of goods is introduced. It includes facilities for users to post product reviews and sign up for notification of updates to publications, ensuring it remains a live, interactive service.'
The launch of the shop is the latest innovation to the Collections Link site. Other new developments include a restructuring of the homepage to allow easy access to information about specific types of collection, and the publication of new content including the NPO leaflet 'Managing the Library and Archive Environment' and updated Subject Specialist Networks listings .
Any organisations or publishers wishing to discuss retailing their products through the Collections Link shop should contact Peter Winsor on 01223 271889 or by email at peter@mda.org.uk
The shop is open for business now at http://shop.collectionslink.org.uk
