A one-hour profession forum session on "Gender Issues and Museum
Websites" is planned for the next Museums and the Web conference
(Vancouver, Canada, 13-16 April 2005 - see
www.archimuse.com/mw2005). A
number of position statements are in preparation. We are seeking
information on examples of good (and perhaps bad!) museum/cultural
websites relevant to and about gender issues, or any other information
that might be relevant (e.g., what specific issues should be discussed
in the forum?). Currently we are planning to cover a number of
different languages, cultural issues, technical aspects like
personalization, accessibility, etc. Are there other issues that should
be covered? What questions should be addressed by the forum? Please
send replies directly to me (and to this list as well if you think they
are of more general interest). I will collate these and distribute them
to the participants in the forum. Many thanks in advance for your help
in this matter.
