Websites
A website can:
- be a vital tool for publicising your museum
- provide information about what you offer to schools
- provide downloadable resources
- provide information about access to your museum
- give virtual access to a building or collections which otherwise might be inaccessible
- provide research material for pupils.
The golden rule of good website design is to decide what you want your site to do, and then use technology to achieve this goal.
