Landscape of Museum Collections Online
LMCO dataset
The Landscape of Museum Collections Online (LMCO) dataset contains information about heritage institutions that manage collections in Canada and their online presence. It is publicly available on Canada’s Open Government Portal to address a need for public, reliable, disaggregated and usable data on the heritage sector. It is accompanied by technical documentation detailing the data collection process, as well the structure and content of the dataset.
LMCO Bulletin
The LMCO Bulletin shares insights from the LMCO dataset about the online presence of heritage institutions in Canada. Each issue highlights key findings and connects them with data from other sources to help explain trends in how institutions use digital tools and online platforms. The Bulletin also explores the data collection process and provides information on dataset updates.
Bulletins will be listed here as well as published on the Open Government Portal, as they become available.
