About Me

Web person at the Imperial War Museum, just completed PhD about digital sustainability in museums (the original motivation for this blog was as my research diary). Posting occasionally, and usually museum tech stuff but prone to stray. I welcome comments if you want to take anything further. These are my opinions and should not be attributed to my employer or anyone else (unless they thought of them too). Twitter: @jottevanger

The lifecycle of value

This project is about value: how to identify it as related to strategic aims; how to sustain it; how to build it in; how to predict.
 
It will deal with digital resources in museums, a key aspect of them being that they are public-facing. But much of what I may look at with regard to locating value will probably be just as relevant to knowledge management, non-digital tangible and intangibles and more; and the venue and orientation may not be museums or the public. All the same, this is the framework within which I will be working, and many problems will be specific to that framework. But it might help to start to cast it more as an exploration of value, its lifecycle, and the problem of its sustenance.
