Research: Online Cultural Heritage Exhibitions
By Yen Ping Yeo, Section General
Posted on Sat Jul 30th, 2005 at 02:41:38 PM GMT
Hello there

I'm currently doing research on online cultural heritage exhibitions. If you've been involved in creating online exhibitions, you're invited to contribute your professional input to this e-survey. The purpose of the survey is to find out what issues cultural institutions face with setting up the online exhibitions. These may include technology, funding, standards, etc; essentially, issues that support or hinder access.

A short background of this project: I'm a postgrad student at the School of Library and Information Studies assisting on this research project funded by the Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. The principal investigator is Dr. Chernli Liew, a lecturer at the university.

I'd be happy to send you an executive summary of our findings when the project is complete. "Online exhibitions" are a relatively recent phenomenon - already I'm finding that archivists/curators in different parts of the world have varying notions of what it means - so the findings should be quite interesting. The fact of its recency also means that little is known about it; so your experience, if you've created online exhibitions, would be very valuable to this research.

Looking for some advice about what steps need to be taken before the ground is broken or if any small museum has done something similar with building a centre or addition.
