digitalpasifik.org – Reflections on designing and delivering a website that aims to serve as a bridge between worlds.

The aim of the Pacific Virtual Museum pilot is to make visible and accessible the digitised cultural heritage of the people in and of the Pacific. The pilot team have worked with a co-design group from across the Pacific, and delivered a site that leverages and presents metadata only, on a site designed to work usefully across the Pacific, on low bandwidth networks and mobile devices.

We have sought to enable Pacific people to access the content and taonga held by GLAM sector, as well as honour the work of that same GLAM sector.

My talk will reflect on some challenges and opportunities of the pilot and what these might mean for library records of institutions in the Pacific, as well as those seeking to find Pacific cultural heritage.
