Victoria's Cultural Network

Victoria’s Cultural Network links Victorian cultural organisations via a broadband network to provide public access to Victorian cultural content. The project enables organisations to make their collection, research and other information available. For example, in 2006 Melbourne's arts agencies collaborated in the delivery of Scoot!, an interactive adventure activity for families and young people. In this presentation, Eleanor Whitworth explains how ideas about access, innovation and collaboration underpin this significant initiative.

This forum was held at the State Library of Victoria on 3 July 2007.
