Why the curatorial services are needed for?
Educational activities
As the world becomes increasingly computerized, it grows more complex, while at the same time users are losing touch with how computers actually work. This is important for getting the most productivity out of computers. The curator’s on-site visit brings the experience to life and makes it accessible for everyone to try. Understanding of computers increases thanks to the visit by the curator of the Kallio Computer Museum.
Get curator service and borrow equipment
The museum has been asked to lend computers or other equipment for personal use. Simply lending out items isn’t feasible, as the museum’s extensive collections contain thousands of exhibits, depending on how they are counted. To ensure the museum and its exhibitions function properly, managing the collection requires meticulous logistical work. Every item must be where the museum’s system indicates it is. The museum’s Curator Service enables borrowing from the museum’s collections for various purposes, as the Curator handles the logistics and setup of the equipment. Thanks to this, equipment can be borrowed from the museum by ordering the Curator Service.
Delivery costs
The cost of the museum’s curator services is based on logistics and shipping. The cost depends on the number of devices the museum curator brings to the site and sets up for testing. With the curator’s help, you can provide content to even large groups easily and affordably!
