Keynote: Interactivity in Museums, Agnès Alfandari, Musée du Louvre

Posted on 17 February 2010 | Comments Off

In 2005 the Louvre’s website went interactive. The goal was for it to be an element of the Louvre in its own right, an arena of exchange, sharing and creation. Visitors have been encouraged to highlight their Louvre experience before, during or after a physical visit, or just use the website on its own if they can’t make it to Paris. The website was organized to be intuitive to the visitor instead of being based on how the museum thought things should be organized. On-site multimedia would also be pushed, with changes being made in temporary and permanent exhibit rooms. Mobile tools such as self-guided tours and other downloadable interpretation enhancing materials were also made available.
