DCDC15 :: The Lowry, Salford Quays :: 12-14 October 2015

Discovering Collections, Discovering Communities:
Exploring
new digital destinations for heritage and academia

DCDC15 will look at the varied and innovative ways in which archives, museums, libraries and academia can engage with audiences in the digital age.

Digital platforms have provided many new and exciting opportunities, yet they have also presented new challenges for heritage and academic organisations. In what ways can we ensure that digital engagement is truly ‘engaging’? What is the relationship between online ‘hits’ and actual footfall? How can we better capture the meaningful ‘impact’ of engagement via digital means? And during a time of austerity, how can all sectors make the case for innovative digital engagement, not as an indulgent luxury, but as a necessity to preserve the broader relevance and wider-recognition of collections? This conference aims to explore the possibilities and also the pitfalls of digital engagement.
