[Web4lib] Software for staff photo archives?

[John Kupersmith]

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.
