ARLIS/NA 53rd Annual Conference

As tools for accessing cultural heritage collections online expand in depth and complexity, GLAM professionals are faced with the increasing need for sustainable, collaborative, and interdisciplinary approaches to data and collections. This panel explores how art and architecture librarians, researchers, and museum professionals are working across institutions to build flexible and accessible digital resources that connect users with collections. Panelists will discuss strategies for designing workflows and tools that enhance data discovery, foster diversity in inquiry, and promote collaboration across academic and professional contributors. Through case studies and discussion, attendees will gain insight into the critical role of data in forging meaningful connections among contexts, collections, and communities of users.
