Future
user perspectives and institutional
strategies
Initiatives at a cross-cultural level, where libraries,
museums and archives work together in creating
digital libraries, and making their cultural heritage
collections available online, are emerging. Leading
academic researchers from the cultural heritage and
the publishers sectors approach this issue: digital
library user experience: a focus on current user
research; digital library content: what users want
and how they use it; strategies for institutions: how
cultural institutions and publishers respond to the
digital challenge.
