Submission deadline: August 1st, 2010

In this special issue we welcome submissions, which investigate  
digital technologies and experiences in museums, galleries and science  
centres. Digital technologies can be used to enhance and transform the  
visitor’s experience and to extend the museum’s ability to invest the  
world with meaning onsite as well as off-site. We invite papers that  
take different approaches to the use of digital technologies in a  
museum context. Of special interest are submissions dealing with web  
2.0 technologies, digital literacy processes and/or organisational  
challenges.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
•	Interaction with digital technologies in a museum context
•	Learning with digital technologies in a museum context
•	Museum’s use of digital technologies
•	Co-creation and user-generated content in museums
•	Implementation of digital technologies, change processes and  
innovation in museums
