   Timescale   
  
It may be some years before all museum objects in Surrey are catalogued by computer, so an on-line database would be incomplete for a while. Would an incomplete listing still be of value to you?
Yes    Limited value    No
It will also be a while before pictures of all these objects are available on-line. Would you always want to see a picture? Please indicate how important this would be to you.
Essential    Very desirable    Not important
