The Collection Online platform launched in November 2021 after extensive development and beta-testing by the Gallery community, has also been realised to make artworks, images and content more easily discoverable and accessible to audiences everywhere. QAGOMA’s Collection Online now consists of over 100 000 pages, including more than 20 000 object pages, with weekly releases of new content and monthly releases of additional features, including digital stories, behind-the-scenes content, artist videos and high-resolution imagery. 

Since its launch, visitor access to the Collection has increased fivefold.  This project continues to be a project we are involved in and we continue to support the QAGOMA team, helping them to develop their expertise in this area.

After the program concluded there were a number of iterations, design improvements, and customer testing rounds which led to the development of Q-Album, which went live with a soft launch in late 2019. Q-Album hosts over 500 historic collection items from the collection, and has now been opened to community groups across Queensland to contribute their historic items to build a community resource. The platform includes comparisons between historic photos and modern street views; digitised archival materials; publishing workflows between community groups and QSA; mapping tools; tag-based taxonomies of content; organisational profiles; and cross-referencing to TROVE and other historic data sources.
