Museum Website Study

A  major study examining use of the Internet by New Zealand museums has uncovered both encouraging and disappointing trends emerging within the cultural sector.

The study, now into its second stage – where museums and galleries are being interviewed by the research team – is being conducted by the Tourism Research Institute with Victoria University academics David Mason, Simon Milne, and Jarrod Coburn, and uses a 52-point model to survey every museum and gallery web site in New Zealand.
