National Model Aviation Museum Opens Digital Collection

Thousands Of Objects And Records Available For Viewing

Thanks to the support of AMA members, staff, donors, and Museum Patrons, the National Model Aviation Museum has completed a multiyear project to build an online digital collection. As of now, 830 object records and 2,734 library records are available for viewing.

The digital collection showcases only a portion of the National Model Aviation Museum's entire collection, which includes approximately 11,000 objects and 5,332 library books and materials. The digital collection will continue to grow as museum personnel add artifacts and information.

The National Model Aviation Museum has been making a concentrated effort to share its collection with members who are unable to visit the museum in Muncie, Indiana. In the last few years, we've debuted a new virtual tour, a Fly By video series, and the #ModelMonday and #ManuscriptMonday series on Facebook and Instagram.

The digital collection will allow AMA members and the public to take a more in-depth look at what's at the museum by searching the new database.
