Abstract

The chapter delves into the complexities of digitizing cultural heritage collections in Indonesia, emphasizing the importance of understanding the context and purpose of digitization projects. It discusses the significant institutional barriers, such as lack of infrastructure and skilled staff, that hinder the process. The study aims to map the current level of access to cultural collections across 38 provinces and identify key obstacles to making digital collections more accessible. The research also explores the diverse digitization practices and challenges faced by institutions within and outside Java, highlighting the need for collaborative efforts with local communities. The findings emphasize the importance of addressing fundamental constraints and improving digital readiness to optimize the potential of Indonesian cultural collections.
