A group (TECHO) has been meeting recently about cultural heritage organizations collaborating through technology, especially sharing content, and has also discussed other ways these organizations could collaborate including i.e. STL/MO participation in DPLA. What are some of the ways organizations could or should collaborate? Could there be savings from such collaboration, i.e. in shared infrastructure? What else could be gained from this kind of collaboration? What obstacles are there?

I’d be very interested in discussing this. Missouri’s institutions must have rich resources that we can tap into and collaborate to create a digital portal. Think Digital Library of California, CARLI (Illinois), UAA Consortium (Alaska), Chicago Collections Consortium, etc.

I haven’t been able to get this out of my mind since the last TECHO meeting I attended. I think this should happen and I would love to be in the middle of it.
