Many of us with historic collections will be familiar with how opaque the information on a label can be, through poor handwriting, placenames that no longer exist, being written in a different language or they can just be incredibly vague. Uncovering this information can add a whole extra level of significance. As many of us are looking more into digitisation and providing local and global access to our collections, the team working at the Natural History Museum on the Distributed System of Scientific Collections (DiSSCo) project are here to give us the tools to find the answers.
