April 8th 2008
we started ‘unlocking’ our photographic collections
![Page 41: Flickr Commons: Open licensing and the future for collections](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042821/55d4bed4bb61eb241f8b4614/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

some thought it was risky
we let go
first Powerhouse Museum project :content freely accessible
![Page 45: Flickr Commons: Open licensing and the future for collections](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042821/55d4bed4bb61eb241f8b4614/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
not all content ʻfully-cataloguedʼ
DescriptionGlass negative, half plate, 'Ocean Wave Hotel', unattributed studio, Sydney, Australia, c. 1880-1923Silver gelatin dry plate glass negative in portrait format. The Tyrrell Collection Inventory records the above caption but does not attribute the negative to a studio.
The negative is not fully catalogued.

general sales have increased slightly
![Page 50: Flickr Commons: Open licensing and the future for collections](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042821/55d4bed4bb61eb241f8b4614/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
can increased visitation encourage sales?
important for institutions that rely on income

these results are a critical measure fora future open-access initiative
if sales can remain the same then the questionof income generation needs to be addressed as
either neutral or potentially beneficial

“Congrats on sticking with it for the 500. Actually, as regards content, I just want more of the same. Whatever you choose to put up is good for me.
I can find stuff I think I want any day of the week by searching around the internet, the PHM collection search, or Flickr. But what I can’t find for myself, and what I like here is the serendipity of seeing something you’ve chosen, for your reasons, to show to us.”
