Knowledge and Communication Services
This document summarizes the activities of ICCROM's Knowledge and Communication Services department. It discusses the library and archive collections, ongoing digitization projects, communications strategies, and an online user survey. The survey found that 57% of the online audience have never participated in an ICCROM activity directly. The department aims to engage more of the online community through its website, social media presence, and online forums like the 2013 ICCROM Forum.
