data structure• editorial / common data values• multimedia delivery / more
than text & image• integrate with other kinds of
resources / museums in the mainstream
![Page 31: Jennifer Trant Executive Director jtrant@amico](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813d17550346895da6d33a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Issues: Rights
• consistent terms and conditions for all works

rights

the consortium– no money returned to members
• access free at point of use

Issues: Community Building
• not-for-profit and educational objectives
• consistent terms for participants• open multi-way communications• shared risks and benefits
