Suzanne Keene
As well as working as a consultant in museum collections care and digitisation, I jointly run the Masters programme in Museum Studies at University College London. Iéve worked in senior museum management for a number of years, most recently as Head of Collections Management in the Science Museum and Head of Conservation in the Museum of London. In both museums, I developed and introduced many new ways of managing and planning for collections care and digitisation. Before that, I worked in archaeological research organisations.

I write a lot of articles, and I have authored two popular books, Managing Conservation in Museums, and Digital Collections: Museums and the Information Age. My main research areas are the usefulness of large scale collections, and the new field of the effects of information and communications technology on cultural organisations.
