Perhaps of interest to GLAM:

"DCMS has commissioned the present study to consider, from a technical point of view, how the Culture White Paper ambition to ‘access particular collections in depth as well as search across all collections’ might be realised.

'This project is a feasibility study, to develop and evaluate a practical framework for collecting relevant data in order to map cultural collections and consider what functionalities a tool based on this framework might possess given the state of existing technology. This project will provide the framework for carrying out this mapping exercise. It is not expected to produce the tool or mapping itself, but help us scope options for a technical solution.'"
