The Museo de San Juan was founded in 1979 to showcase the history and culture of Puerto Rico’s capital city through art. The Museo is looking to expand its digital presence through a website as well as to catalog and manage its collection. It wants a broader audience to discover and learn about San Juan’s history and culture. We conducted key informant interviews and engaged in user testing with Museo staff to incorporate their perspectives in our website designs and in selecting a potential collection management system (CMS). The team recommended that the Museo adopt Omeka S as its CMS, as well as to continue web design utilizing the website platform Webflow, and to adapt examples of multimedia elements on our prototype to tell future stories the Museo curates.
