build a partnership between the Florida Museum, the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum, and the

Seminole and Miccosukee communities for future collaborative projects. Within the

broader platform for southeastern Native American collections, this wiki will allow the

Florida Museum of Natural History to share its collections with the future multi-

institutional database, the Southeastern Native American Collections Project, currently

being developed by Dr. Jason Baird Jackson at Indiana University.

       In conclusion, it is my hope that the Florida Museum Project wiki offers a

contributory model that can be applied by other museums holding Native American

collections. Many museums strive to increase online collections accessibility and

inclusiveness, but they are met with limited resources to realize their goals. By applying

Web 2.0 technology to the challenges experienced by museums, the wiki model offers

an inexpensive and user-friendly tool to meet these demands. Additionally, the wiki

model encourages Native American communities to rejoin their voices with their

culture's historic objects, and share the story of their own heritage with the community

and the public.
