The Taoka Online Project: digitising the Kai Tahu collection of the Otago Museum

Tuesday November 20th, 2:00pm-2:25pm @ Angus - Breakout Room

This presentation will be about the practical realities of digitisation projects: what worked and what didn't and what we would change if we could do it again. We will also discuss our experience working with taoka and following tikanga as non-Maori. We hope to provide insights and recommendations for other institutions seeking to embark on their own digitisation projects.

The Taoka Online Project will be finished, for all intents and purposes, by the time this presentation is delivered, and we will be able to show a practical demonstration of the web content as well, which is currently in development.
