> Dear Alan,
>
> I have read about your NLHF "The Question of Digital" project with interest. I am leading a project for the London Museum Documentation Network to develop a toolkit for museum professionals on managing digital collection objects, which is supported by the Collections Trust and will be published on their website.
>
> We have just completed a series of feedback workshops with a cross section of museums and archives sector colleagues responsible for managing digital collections in their respective organisations. Whilst the focus of the toolkit is specifically on sign posting to digital preservation tools available for managing acquired digital objects, some of the principles of managing digital assets generally are the same.
>
> We are also the in process of developing sections on digital strategy, risk assessments of their current collections and tools for museums to build a business case to attract funding and advocate for digital collections management expertise, infrastructure and resource.
>
> I'm more than happy to share a draft form of the toolkit with you and our contacts in the sector if this will help progress your project in any way.
>
> All the very best,

> Museum Development Yorkshire is working with the University of Leeds and Cause4 on the NLHF funded 'The Question of Digital' project. As part of this, we are wanting to commission a consultant to carry out a short piece of research with the heritage sector to identify their most pressing questions related to the development of digital capabilities for the sector in the areas of:
>
> * Digital leadership and organisational development
> * Business models and recovery planning
>
> The commission is worth c. £18k and the focus is on identifying:
>
> * Digital learning and resource needs (related to information rather than digital equipment and/or connectivity) of leadership teams, workers and volunteers within small and medium-sized heritage organisations across the breadth of the sector.
> * Gaps in current provision as well as areas well served by other sector initiatives and training providers.
> * Preferred means of access to digital learning for sector staff (including senior staff and boards) and volunteers.
> * Barriers and enablers to sector participation in online learning and in the practical application of that learning
>
> This is the second attempt at sourcing a consultant. Last time we had some interesting proposals from people who knew the sector well but who had less insight into digital, OD or business models. I am hoping that with a second round we can source a supplier that has this wider knowledge and experience.
