Open Access to Digitized Cultural Heritage: A Model Proposal for Turkey
Journal Title: Ankara Üniversitesi Dil ve Tarih-Coğrafya Fakültesi Dergisi - Year 2018, Vol 58, Issue 2
Abstract
Cultural values, which are homogenized by the effect of globalization, have endangered nations with the risk of losing their local cultures. Sensibility of conservation and acknowledging cultural properties with the society they belonged to, has increased the efforts to protect cultural heritage products with a sustainable understanding and make them massively accessible. Unhindered access to cultural heritage products can be provided by cultural memory institutions, such as libraries, archives and museums, which open up their digital doors and increase their visibility on the web. The aim of this study is to propose a model that will lead to open access to digitized cultural heritage - in the case of Turkey. The model, which is expected to guide the legal, technical, administrative and financial processes of open access to cultural heritage, is thought to contribute to the discovery of cultural heritage products at universal level, the development of creativity in the individual and social context and the adoption of standard approaches in cultural heritage management.
