GLAM Lab Launch
The Gallery, Library, Archive and Museum (GLAM) Lab is a new approach of using new, existing and emerging digital technologies to make cultural heritage collections available in innovative and engaging ways. The GLAM Lab in HKU focuses its support to virtual teaching and learning (VTL) and promotes creative use of collections from the University Museum and Art Gallery, University Libraries, and University Archives. Interested participants can approach the GLAM Lab team for more information on how to make use of the collections, facilities and services we offer. The Lab will hopefully be developed into a sandbox for interdisciplinary and collaborative VTL projects for students and teachers from different disciplines. New ideas derived from this approach will also inform the development of virtual teaching and learning of the University.
