Bodleian Libraries: Shelley's Ghost
Shelley's Ghost
An exhibition at The Bodleian Libraries, Oxford
Shelley’s Ghost was a project for the Bodleian Libraries, Oxford, whose exhibition about the Shelley family required an online counterpart. One of the biggest challenges was how to handle the sheer volume and complexity of the exhibited materials which are on display, and to cater for the spectrum of potential visitors. Therefore, Surface Impression worked tirelessly to provide an organised and focused experience for scholars, whilst offering sufficient interactivity and usability for the general public.
Choosing the right technical partners is critical to a project, so our online exhibitions team developed a detailed brief and sought recommendations from colleagues and peers before inviting companies to tender. We chose Surface Impression for their user- centric approach, their relevant experience, and their content management system (Content Curator) which provided great functionality out-of-the-box.
