image-based resources hosted around the world.
To define a set of common application programming interfaces that
support interoperability between image repositories.
To develop, cultivate and document
shared technologies that provide a
world-class user experience in
viewing, comparing, manipulating and
annotating images.

CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model
“The CRM is a standard which will help you integrate
cultural information from a variety of sources and bring
them together into an integrated environment where
you can ask bigger questions than you can ask from
the individual pieces that you have.”
- Stephen Stead, CIDOC CRM co-creator

The methodology used for sharing digital resources with the
network is critical: don’t isolate your users by using home grown
technology
Relinquish control! Share our digital resources beyond our
website in formats that allow for easy creative and scholarly reuse
Technology developed by communities increases sustainability
Look for technology that supports interoperability
Develop policies and technical implementations to leverage
technology
Conclusion
