The System Source Computer Museum, located in Hunt Valley, Maryland, exhibits notable computing devices from ancient times until the present. Over 5,000 objects are on display, and many of the computation devices work. STEM activities are offered to organized tour groups. As of 2021 admission is free. The museum is open weekdays from 9:00AM until 6:00PM, and other times by appointment. Docent led tours are highly recommended.

History
The museum's origins date to 1981 when a Baltimore ComputerLand franchise had computers in inventory that instantly became historic artifacts with the introduction of the IBM_Personal_Computer.

The museum was incorporated as a 501c3 in 2018 as the Maryland Technology Museum d/b/a the System Source Computer Museum. In 2021, the museum became the new home of the DigiBarn Computer Museum.
