When we look at how museums and libraries are presented in popular media we might think that they would be allergic to the future, but they are rapidly changing. Moderated by Katie Russell, CEO of the Australian Museums and Galleries Association (AMaGA), this panel explores how First Nations communities are changing how and what museums are for, and how they operate; how a museum transformed the highly specialised knowledge of close knit expert community into an interactive public museum; how the public thinks museums should use technology; and how Wikimedia is becoming a cultural institution.
