Cultural heritage information

How to manage cultural heritage assets? What visitors are thinking about? What about digital technology and social media? I have been working with several cultural heritage institutions as a consultant, have professional experience on working in a museum with information management and dissemination, been teacher, lecturer and conducted research on diverse aspects of cultural heritage information.

I have been blogged

I was suddenly blogged by Karolina when I was having a lecture at Lund University at the Department of Cultural Sciences last week. Otlet, the new blog of the archival, library & information and museum studies can be found at http://www.abm.kultur.lu.se. Other interesting blogs on the same topic are, e.g.

Library 2.0

The notion Library 2.0 has been described to place a special emphasis on users, rich experience, social richness, participation and communal innovativeness . Although the notion has its roots in the development of digital libraries, user centred information research and social computing, the practical implications of these emphases in actual user contexts is very much under debate. The need for comprehensive theorical and empirical understanding of the phenomenon is clear.

Archives, Libraries and Museums - Information Work Management in Cultural Heritage Sector

The issue of organising information in a functioning manner concerns equally the individuals, organisations and entire domains of knowledge. To be successful, an organisation needs to provide its members with precise information at the right moment to complete the right assignment. The problem is not to point out who is the available person, or what is the available information or what is the assignment. The problem is to make them all converge in a productive manner.
