    The international conference for museums on the web!

    ABOUT MW2000 Thousands of cultural heritage institutions are now on the web, offering programs and sharing information. At Museums and the Web 2000, speakers from around the world will present papers on the entire process of web implementation. During the 3 days of the conference, beginners and veterans can explore themes including: design & development, implementation, evaluation, site promotion, education, societal issues, research, museology and curation. Sessions, papers, panels and up-close mini-workshops explore theory and practice.

    The Exhibit Hall features hot tools, techniques and services. Demonstrations of museum web sites will let you meet and question designers and implementers of some of the coolest museums on the web. Full and half day workshops precede the conference on April 16, and allow in depth exploration of topics and themes.
