Have you considered using such tools as Flickr? I've been playing around
with this as a possibility.

At UC Berkeley, we're looking for a good way to manage a large number
of 
photos in digital formats, taken by library staff for use on the
website or 
in publications.  The great majority of these are residing on
individual 
hard drives, discoverable only through personal knowledge.  I expect
this 
situation is not unusual.

We'd like to create a photo archive accessible to staff (not for public

use), that's searchable through tags and descriptions, browsable by 
thumbnails, and as easy to maintain as possible.

If your library has such an archive, I'd be very interested in what 
software you're using and any lessons learned about how to set it 
up.  Please reply directly to me and I'll summarize for the list.
