Ahead of fully-digesting what is turning out to be a highly informative
discussion, I wanted to say 'thank-you' to all those who have so far
responded.
As an aid to demonstrating current e-commerce in collection images, I
intend to conduct a very small-scale survey with museum/heritage
organisations exploring current charges (non-commercials users and
otherwise); rates of audience demand and income generation; and the
perceived value such a service lends to an organisation.
With the respondents permission I will circulate findings to the list.
Many thanks again for the discussion thus far and the interesting
leads/articles - I feel there's more debate to be had!
Jude.
