Collaboration in Cultural Heritage Digitisation in East Asia
Lee, Hyuk-Jin
Program: Electronic Library and Information Systems, v44 n4 p357-373 2010
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to review the current status of collaboration in cultural heritage preservation in East Asia, including digital projects, and to suggest practical improvements based on a cultural structuralism perspective. Design/methodology/approach: Through exploratory research, the paper addresses aspects for successful collaboration in cultural heritage digitisation in East Asia. Findings: The paper indicates the difference in collaboration of cultural heritage digitisation between regions such as Europe and the unique situation in East Asia. Social implications: If collaboration between the countries of East Asia was implemented then such a community could deal with the issues of cultural heritage by having a standard scheme or policy. Originality/value: There has been little literature published on East Asian cultural heritage initiatives, particularly in the area of digitisation and digital preservation. (Contains 4 figures.)
