In today's museums, technology is not just an addition but a transformation. By integrating innovative solutions, we're breaking barriers, making history accessible and engaging for all. It's about turning visits into experiences and stories into dialogues, bridging past and present. These museums evolving with technology, are allowing every artifact that has a story not just be seen, but felt and lived.

The advent of online technologies has changed the way museums manage collections, shape exhibitions, and build communities. This double Special Issue, co-edited by Karin de Wild (Leiden University) and Nadezhda Povroznik (HDSM, Technische Universität Darmstadt), provides new perspectives on the histories of museums online. It features papers on a wide range of topics, including the history of virtual museums and online exhibitions, museums’ responses to the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, digital openness, and the development of museums’ digital identities. This Special Issue is published in the journal 𝐼𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑛𝑒𝑡 𝐻𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑠: 𝐷𝑖𝑔𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑇𝑒𝑐ℎ𝑛𝑜𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑦, 𝐶𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑆𝑜𝑐𝑖𝑒𝑡𝑦, an international journal dedicated to research on the histories of the internet and related digital cultures.
