Sažetak
The legislation covering Croatian museums has deÞ ned the structure of the museum documentation of museum resources, as well as the necessity of making this documentation and resources accessible to users. In addition to this and following the eight-year tradition of the Seminar of Archives, Libraries and Museums, there is also another issue, namely a search for viable structures and standards whereby museum professionals can take part in an interactive coordination of exchanging information among related institutions and users. In a parallel development initiated by exchanges of experiences among these three areas of information
science and experiences of related European institutions some museum collections have been published in digital formats in various degrees of editorial presentation. Taking into account all three – namely, the legislation, the already existing possibilities to discuss
needs for new ways of communication and digital publications, this article should be an attempt to identify the level of awareness of this issue among members of the Croatian museum community as
well as the level of their expertise and familiarity with this aspect, what expert preconditions are required to build databases of (museum) resources and whether Croatian museum science regards the web as the right place/medium to publish these materials in the Þ rst place and if so in what form. Particular attention would be paid precisely to this required form and necessary level of information about museum resources and the design
of that particular web service in the light of different proÞ les of museums and the level of interest among its users/visitors. From this an answer should be derived as to whether publishing museum resources on the web threatens their printed paper equivalents, i.e., whether there is a need to protect access to information about museum resources on the web with passwords by way of
charging certain fees.
