roadblocks

• lack of common agenda for collaboration • institutional / sectoral priorities - is it in our
nature or are we funded to collaborate• “build it and they will come”• “standards are barriers to participation”• why bother ? – Google is our collaborator• variable skill sets – large institutions do
better• hybrid costs
Some lessons
Digitisation is good
Digital Collections are better
Metadata
Let it free and it will come back to you
Digitisation is good
Persistence is essential
Give people the tools
to use and to reuse
“Cultural heritage results from EXCHANGE OF IDEAS
about objects
it is not located IN them”
