I'd like to share an important survey of potential user views on the Towards a National Collection programme, on behalf of the survey organisers. https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/5QBTD5F
Towards a National Collection is a major five-year £18.9 million investment in the UK’s world-renowned museums, archives, libraries and galleries. Funding is provided through UK Research and Innovation’s Strategic Priorities Fund and delivered by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). The programme will take the first steps towards creating a unified virtual ‘national collection’ by dissolving barriers between different collections – opening UK heritage to the world. By seizing the opportunity presented by new digital technology, it will allow researchers to formulate radically new research questions, increase visitor numbers, dramatically expand and diversify virtual access to our heritage, and bring clear economic, social and health benefits to communities across the UK. The innovation driven by the programme will maintain the UK’s world leadership in digital humanities and set global standards in the field.
For more information about the programme pleas see https://www.nationalcollection.org.uk/about
The survey seeks to capture the views of different audiences, including heritage professionals (as individuals) and will help to inform decisions about the future direction of the programme.
