The goals of the traditional and mobile sites were to serve as a content-rich online presence during the museum’s renovation, provide fully bilingual content, and change how visitors used the site. Robert Trio, Project Officer for Technology, will talk about the goals, considerations and challenges of developing a mobile website alongside the website redesign. He will discuss the technologies the museum considered and steps for developing the mobile site.
