Mobilising the museum: a call for participants

What is the role of a museum in an international digital economy? What does a business have to gain from a dusty archive? Who even goes to the library any more?

MLA London and Sparknow have embarked on a novel research project to capture the role and value of museums, libraries and archives to the modern business world, and Freepinters are invited to log on at mla.sparknow.net and share their views.

The investigation is going to develop into a set of pilot projects that test ways of making the sector more useful and business more effective, and we are giving everyone a chance to
direct the course of that programme.

Please take the trouble to log onto this site and let us have your insights. If you wish to have a one to one conversation Victoria Ward of Sparknow will be presenting the aims of this work at Online on Tuesday 4 December, in Pillar Hall between 16.15-16.45.
