Updated News August 2019
Our CDDA digital partners have been very busy in Enniskillen, where they have been working with the The Inniskillings Museum and The Lough Erne Landscape Partnership as part of the 'Access Inniskillings Digitisation Project'.
They had a very busy and enjoyable Bank Holiday Monday, when the team were delighted to run a series of digital upskilling training sessions, where volunteers, trustees and members of the public learned how to digitally capture, review digital standards and archive historic material in museum collections. The demonstrations of cutting-edge immersive 360° digital experiences via Virtual Reality headsets really went down a treat!!
The team then spent several days digitising and recording much of the pre-1900 collections held by the Inniskillings Museum, from historic maps to portraits and paintings.
