I am a postgraduate studying for an MA in Heritage Skills at
Aberystwyth University. I am currently writing my dissertation on
digitisation in museums and archives. I am planning to focus on a
few case studies, but in addition would like to obtain a general
overview of the current situation.
I am particulary interested in the debate over whether the 'virtual'
museum should replace the 'actual', and the effects of digitisation
on the heritage world. If you are currently involved in a digitisation
or multimedia project within a museum, library or archival
institution, I would be greatful if you could email me off-list.
Thanking you all in advance for your cooperation,
