Decoding Digital Curation for Cultural Heritage
Digital curation in cultural heritage organizations is becoming more and more established as a practice as empirical research into tools, techniques, skills, standards and best practices in particular contexts emerge. Digital curation activities are complex processes that involve diverse skills and techniques, software tools and systems, and a range of professional and paraprofessional practices. The lack of acknowledged models opens the way to the usage of algorithmic approaches as an alternative/support/aid to human curation, especially as personal filters and as generators of public experiences realized through machine learning and virtual reality tools. However, the relationship of curation with materials and their digital counterparts lacks an encompassing effective framework. Here, we claim that an encompassing framework of digital curation is strongly needed: this would provide and open to the development of software environments in support.

A Multiple Perspective Account of Digital Curation for Cultural Heritage
Cultural heritage management is a multiple-perspective enterprise where several disciplines and practices contribute to successful dissemination and communication. Digital data in support of cul-
tural heritage management are addressed by the digital curation process, which has been emerging in cultural heritage organizations to account for the diversity of disciplinary communities and cultural organizations.
WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Digital curation addresses the diversity of participating skills and practices by working on the relationship between the cultural heritage objects and their digital counterparts.
WHAT WE DO?
In this paper, we provide a survey of the digital curation process, by unpacking the component curatorial tasks, with the solutions that have been proposed in the literature and in the application projects to account for the multiple perspectives at hand.
