This project has been made possible by a collaboration between several departments within the University of St Andrews :

School of Classics, Open Virtual Worlds team (School of Computer Science), Museum Collections, School of Art History

Thanks go to  Dr Rebecca Sweetman for inviting me to undertake this project and support throughout the process.  Dr Alan Miller and Dr Iain Oliver for providing the scanning equipment and their help in learning to use it.  Dr Oliver for uploading the scans for viewing and Mary Woodcock-Kroble  for guidance on creating the web pages and making them available for viewing.  Thanks to Dr Helen Rawson, Jessica Burdge, Claire Robinson and Arianna Carlini from Museum Collections for assistance with equipment and general support.  Last and by no means least a  big thank you to Ruaridh MacIver and Sophia Mirashrafi for their assistance with photographing the collection.

The collaboration on which this project was based has been a very positive experience, and the most essential outcome has been to demonstrate how a  multidisciplinary approach towards the study of heritage and artefacts can help to facilitate a  wider access to museum collections.
