Tom ScheinfeldtĀ shares some thoughts about how he evaluated a āvenerable cultural heritage institutionāsā digital program. Scheinfeldtās appraisal offers cultural heritage institutions a useful roadmap for considering what digital programs need to be successful and relevant, such as an integrated social strategy and mobile strategies. Above all, Scheinfeldt reminds us that āDigital is not a revenue center, itās an operating cost like the reading room, or the permanent galleries, or the education department. You shouldnāt expect increased revenues from a website redesign any more than you should from a new coat of paint for the front door.ā
