“The most prominent of these programs was SELGEM, created by the Smithsonian Institution. An acronym for “SELf GEnerating Master,” SELGEM was a replacement for an even earlier Smithsonian information management system, SIIR. Developed during the 1960s and first placed in operation at the Smithsonian in 1970, SELGEM was soon made available to nonprofit organizations free of charge. Composed of thirty-three unique programs, the package was issued as “a generalized system for information storage, management, and retrieval especially suited for collection management in museums.”
Ross Parry, Museums in a Digital Age

“As unwieldy as those early computers were, there was an aura surrounding them. They were perceived as magical; their operators, as wizards of the modern age endowed with extraordinary scientific prowess.”
Ross Parry, Museums in a Digital Age
