Dear MCNers, The prospect of generating revenue from digitized museum collections remains alluring, especially to administrators looking for new sources of funding. But I am unaware of any initiatives that have been successful in this regard. What kinds of discussion are museum professionals engaged in on this topic? Or more specifically, what is the current thinking in terms of using digital collections as a means of generating revenue?
Any insights or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. jim ------------------------------------------------- Jim Whittome Information Management Advisor Museums and Collections Services University of Alberta Edmonton, Canada --- You are currently subscribed to mcn_mcn-l as: rlancefi...@mail.wesleyan.edu To unsubscribe send a blank email to leave-mcn_mcn-l-12800...@listserver.americaneagle.com
