Hello all -

 

Are there any museums out there charging fees to access their digital
collection information/images?  I'm looking for available statistics
about the success of generating revenue for the museum in this manner.
I'm also interested in learning about institutions which considered this
idea, but rejected it, and why.

 

I would be very interested in touching base with anyone who knows of, or
has been part of such a project and discussing this subject.

 

Thanks so much,

 

Allison Smith
