Conclusions from projects • Need to develop and adapt existing digital archives • Research results underdeveloped in open archives • Software needs to be developed • Need for user-friendly interface for the person depositing the research results • Important to develop better ways of displaying visual objects for the end users • Visual representation is of vital importance for researchers’ willingness to publish at all • Fear of copying or theft of ideas

  11. We must get a broader picture!
