[BCMA] Free Webinar - Online Collections: Scenes and Schemes

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Canada's History Society is offering a free webinar for museums on February 28, at 9:00am Pacific.



Online Collections: Scenes and Schemes



People expect information to be available at the click of a button. If it's not online, it doesn't exist. So how can already overburdened museums meet this new public expectation with regards to their collections? Should we go to where the people are or build something new and hope they come to us? Do we share it all or only give teasers? There are a lot of considerations and decisions to face.



Join Karin Kierstead, Museum Advisor at the Association of Nova Scotia Museums, for a strategic discussion that will help you answer these and other questions, and learn how a group of 51 community museums overcame the obstacles and are now sharing over 145,000 collection records on NovaMuse.ca.
