The Book Culture Project

The Electronic Book at the Book Culture Museum

Currently Johan Bergkvist Researcher (Aug 1993-) is working on three different projects related to knowledge handling in the museums.

• Bokkulturen
  In this project the history of the written word is presented from medieval manuscripts to the electronic book of today. KBS-Media presents a specially designed Electronic Book at the permament exhibition. The visitor learns about and explores the new 'electronic' book and has all the world under his/her fingertips.

• The museum of sketches
  This project (under application) aims to present the collections and the knowledge connected to them in a hypermedia application. The material will be available through kiosks in the museum and on the web.

• The county museums
  Project under application aiming at increasing the internal museum competence for in-house development of networked multimedia tools and adapted multimedia supported visitor access.

The Swedish version is available by ftp from kbslab3.kstr.lth.se.

KBS-Media Lab is also engaged in the build-up of the Lund University Historical Museum.
