Best E-Services Solution

And the Winner was:

24 Hour Museum
http://www.24hourmuseum.org.uk

The 24 Hour Museum provides an interesting gateway to UK museums. The "online trails" provide thematic pathways to follow and make your way through the museums. The "museums and galleries" Direct Data Entry (DDE) feature is a useful and efficient e-service for the UK museum community. The DDE feature capitalizes on the unique capabilities of the web.

Allows Museum members to enter and update their own content on a range of subjects e.g. events, facilities. The site itself adds timely updates e.g. themed tours that coincide with a film launch ("The Hours"). Clear accessible design.

I find this site particularly useful for all employees of any museum or cultural institution. It provides access to a wide range of information which is barely guessed at a first view.
