Abstract

This full-day workshop examines conceptual and practical aspects of collections and the context they provide in the digital environment, especially in large-scale cultural heritage aggregations. Collections will be considered in relation to the information needs of scholars, roles of cultural institutions, and international interoperability. The workshop aims to: 1) Broaden the conversation across an international community, 2) Further the research and development agenda for digital aggregations, 3) Relate conceptual advances to implementation goals and 4) Identify realistic approaches for collection representation, contextualization, and interoperability at scale
