Collaboration across the collecting sectors

This lecture examines opportunities for better collaboration between museums, archives and libraries. It will cover:
How improved collaboration (especially in discovery services and data exchange) can deliver significant benefits to collecting institutions users;
Some of the models and standards that support collaboration; and
The National Library s new discovery service, Trove, and how it will help improve collaboration.
Introduction
Today I will discuss the opportunities for collaboration among the different sectors that constitute Australia’s collecting institutions: in other words, collaboration among the GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums) sectors.

This paper explains some of the work done during the Rights Management project at the National Library of Australia, looking at the background to the project, the expected benefits, the process of design and development and user engagement, and explains how some of the many challenges encountered to date have been met.

Developing Trove; the policy and technical challenges

1 January 2009 - 12:00
In September 2008 the National Library of Australia embarked on a project to develop a powerful new discovery service to expose the wealth of information in Australian collections. The new service, branded “Trove”, was released in December 2009 after six months as a beta service. Trove is not only replacing eight legacy services, but is improving the discovery experience for the Australian public and researchers by including more content and by allowing users to engage with the content. This paper will describe the policy and technical challenges which were faced by the Library during this project, and will outline the Library’s plans for the further development of Trove. ....
