| Abstract | We are on the threshold of a wonderful new universe where a wealth of cultural heritage information is available in digital form. We need to ask ourselves however, what conditions will need to apply in order for that vision to be realized. What will it take to move from the current situation in which we have a few scattered and random examples of cultural heritage information in digital form to an environment where we can assume a systematic and sustained effort to generate comprehensive information resources? To what end would we undertake such an effort and how would that purpose shape decisions about the approach which should be taken? |
