Professor Ross Parry, Director of the University of Leicester's Institute for Digital Culture, explains how MDS will transform the way researchers access and think about museum collections over coming years.

MDS is a transformative new service that aims to connect and share all the object records across all UK museums, providing the raw material for anyone to work with this wealth of knowledge. It is a joint initiative by Art UK, Collections Trust and the University of Leicester, supported by Bloomberg Philanthropies and the Arts and Humanities Research Council.

The video was recorded at the official launch of MDS on 12 September 2024. We are very grateful to Bloomberg Philanthropies for hosting the event and sharing the footage.
