Creating Digital Exhibits for Cultural Institutions will show you how to create
digital exhibits and experiences for your users that will be informative, accessible,
and engaging.
Illustrated with real-world examples of digital exhibits from a range of GLAMs,
the book addresses the many analytical aspects and practical considerations
involved in the creation of such exhibits. It will support you as you go about
analyzing content to find hidden themes, applying principles from the museum
exhibit literature, placing your content within internal and external information
ecosystems, selecting exhibit software, and finding ways to recognize and use
your own creativity. Demonstrating that an exhibit provides a useful and creative
connecting point where your content, your organization, and your audience can
meet, the book also illustrates how such exhibits can provide a way to revisit
difficult and painful material in a way that includes frank and enlightened analyses
racism, colonialism, sexism, class, and LGBTQI+ issues.
Creating Digital Exhibits for Cultural Institutions is an essential resource for
librarians, archivists, and other cultural heritage professionals who want to promote
their institution’s digital content to the widest possible audience. Academics and
students working in the fields of library and information science, museum studies,
and digital humanities will also find much to interest them within the pages of
this book.
