CIDOC newsletter 2023
CIDOC is the recognised expert and core resource on museum documentation. We are an international community of professionals working to advance best practices in the field. The CIDOC annual newsletter is a space to present and discuss primary issues during the year around documentation as well as a space to communicate the main events of the committee. This year, we are proud to share with you a special CIDOC Newsletter 2023.
This newsletter has a different nature than previous newsletters because of three main reasons. First, it showcases the new look and feel of the committee, with a robust communications team responsible for overseeing its development and production, in collaboration with the ICOM digital library. Second, the newsletter is available in English, French, Spanish, and Arabic. This represents an important step for CIDOC in reaching out to its Arabic-speaking community, strengthening our collaborative efforts in advancing documentation best practices to a broader community and across a new language line. And third, the newsletter documents the seeds planted during the annual conference as the main event of the year.
These reasons allowed us to explore a new approach. We opted to showcase the CIDOC 2023 Annual Conference as it was a pivotal meeting for the CIDOC community. We have witnessed a surge of energy that has fed a series of efforts generated from this conference, including: the development of a museum documentation definition and key concepts associated, the exploration of the implications of AI in documentation by museums, and heightened collaboration within the Ibero-American community, including an ongoing Spanish translation of CIDOC-CRM.
This CIDOC 2023 Annual Newsletter further highlights several aspects of the board’s efforts to advance the strategic goals of 2023-2025 regarding the revision of the internal work process, implementation of the communication strategy, advancement of outreach and networking efforts, and documentation standards development.
We hope you enjoy the CIDOC Newsletter 2023 !
