Welcome!
In July 2007, with support from the LDA, MLA London began a ground-breaking programme of work to examine and support relationships between museums, libraries and archives and businesses.
Based on our initial research, we have developed a series of pilot projects, which will test new approaches, spread good practice and overcome some of the barriers to effective relationships between business and the sector. You can find out more about the pilots or apply to join them here.
If you would like to know more about the research and our plans for the next stage of the programme, please download the reports here. Or alternatively, you can get in touch with Ellen Collins.
Meanwhile, here is the latest from the project blog and discussion. We will be using them to track our thoughts and plans for the pilots, which will begin in April 2009. Please do sign up and comment on anything you see. It only takes a moment, and we look forward to hearing from you.
