The conference was co-hosted by the University of Denver and the Denver Art Museum, and the theme was "Imagining the Digital Future." Conference programs addressed the successes and innovations of the past as well as the opportunities and challenges that can help drive museum and library sciences into the future. Topics included interoperability, the future of collaboration, standards and best practices, technology and systems development, training a 21st century cultural heritage information workforce and strategies to more deeply engage audiences.
