Creating Digital Exhibitions: A Practical Guide

Creating Digital Exhibitions: A Practical Guide provides both in-depth theoretical discussions and practical, step-by-step approaches to creating virtual exhibitions in museums. It emphasizes participatory and edu-curation strategies that address the evolving needs of small to medium museums in the digital age. This book brings a unique, global perspective, including case studies and insights from diverse cultural contexts. It features approachable discussions about technology, practical how-to guidance, and a focus on diversity and inclusion in exhibit design from practitioners in the field. It's not just about the how but also covers the why behind digital transformation in museums. What makes this book unique is its multi-vocal approach to developing digital exhibitions. This book pairs theoretical frameworks of digital and virtual environments with the practical implications of producing exhibits with national and international applications. These examples include contemporary case studies focusing on inclusivity and accessibility in digital/virtual exhibitions that go beyond static pages of high-resolution object reproductions and into interactive and responsive digital engagement. This book is the first of its kind to focus on small- to mid-sized museums whose limited budgets and staff often control their ability to expand into the digital landscape. It offers projects that are scalable, which will benefit museums of all sizes.
