Two registrars were hired to help the museum itemise and catalogue everything in its collection on software system PastPerfect. The audit was also to record the status and condition of the items in the collection. ''A complete collection audit from the back gate to the front door hasn't been carried out since the objects were brought in in 1986.'' The two registrars, Pip Harrison and Kate Smith-Bingham, started the audit in February and it was completed ''as of 5pm'' yesterday, Mr Ross said.
