Museums and the Web 2011 (MW2011): Demonstrations

[View]

Demos show new museum Web sites and cultural heritage informatics applications up close and provide a chance to speak with their creators.

At MW2011 museum staff members showed sites created in a non-profit environment and explained the workings behind them to colleagues. Informal demonstration sessions were a great chance to see many sites close-up and talk one-on-one with colleagues about their designs and the decisions that went into them.

Demonstration Hall

The Demonstrations were be set up in the same space as the Exhibit Hall. Delegates moved from booth to booth for individual discussions with Demonstrators.

Demonstrators could choose to write papers for the conference Proceedings, but this was optional. The paper deadline is January 31, 2011. See the MW2011 Paper Guidelines.
