"Digital transitions in the Cultural Heritage Sector"
Understanding the digital future of Cultural Heritage and Research
Re-use of cultural content
Cultural heritage institutions are certainly guardians of vast collections of cultural content whose re-use could certainly generate benefits for the society. For this reason, we are interested in getting to know from your side whether you are actually allowing the re-use of your collections or whether you would be willing to do so and for which purposes. Are you willing to offer the re-use of the works in your collections for non-commercial purposes such as educational or research purposes or also for commercial purposes? We are aware that there may be legal and other barriers that may prevent the re-use of the collections. If so, we would like to hear from you which are the main barriers that you find in your daily activities.

We highlight remixed content from time to time, reposting on social media or our blog: (https://www.si.edu/openaccess/updates/year-smithsonian-remixes)
I love the idea of an exhibition & perhaps we can find more creative ways to place a spotlight on reuse. Another example we love is the Met's design challenge: (https://www.metmuseum.org/150/contest)
