| Sumario: | [EN] To speak of university heritage requires, first of all, to distinguish between university museums and university collections. Regardless of the category in wich it falls, university heritage offers, in turn, a wide variety of typologies that, according to the Committee of Museums and University Collections (UMAC), excedes 90 categories. Although university museums seem to us to be a novel typology within the fild of museology, the truth is that their origin dates back to the 17th century. Although more than 330 years have passed since the creation of the first university museum (Ashmolean Museum, 1683) at the University of Oxford, university museums remain largely unknown, both inside and outside the university academic community. The university heritage has been defined on many occasions as unknown, dispersed, inaccesible and hidden, within the university academic institutions. We continue to find the difficulty, both in accessibility and visibility. This proposal arises after my predoctoral research entitled “University art museums and collections in the Iberoamerican sphere”, focused on a total of 84 examples of university art museums and collections in 49 universities in ten countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Spain, Mexico, Portugal, Peru and Venezuela. Through this proposal, I intend to show which are the digital resources that are used for the management and dissemination of university heritage in the Ibero-American sphere. I will specially focus on the artistic. Through this tour we find repositories, inventories and other digital resources such as virtual museums. All these examples share the need to be visible in society to meet the objectives of any other museum typology, thus responding to the definition of a museum. In short, through these resources, it is intended to generate another window of knowledge through digital evolution. |
