Mission
The new department facilitates interdisciplinary, object based research by collecting, registering, archiving and making available bibliographical and documentary data , together with collection data, (technical) conservation data and provenance data. It does so in an open manner, with the aim to connect people in the broadest possiblesense, now and in the future.
The department collects, manages, archives and shares on behalf of the Rijksmuseum also the output of the scientific research performed by the museum itself, including(when possible) the raw data. In order to maximize the support for interdisciplinaryobject based research (∈ digital humanities/ e-humanities) new services and tools willbe developed in cooperation with researchers.
All this is done with respect for the key values of the museum (authenticity, quality, personal, innovative and simplicity) and in dialogue with – and where possible in cooperation – with other partners within its network.
