Comments
Focusing in on external audiences that would be interested in doing research and using cultural heritage collections, you will meet a genealogist and local historian, a scholar or teaching faculty member, as well as an artist—in this case an author. For cultural heritage institutions that would make up the internal audiences for this first phase of build out, you have representative users from a small, local, volunteer-run historical society, a public library with special collections, and a mid-sized academic that has some digital collections online already.
