Mr. Dieck gave a power point presentation on one of the most exciting topics today which falls within what is known as Digitalizing Cultural Heritage, which mainly depends on documenting cultural and heritgae materials (whether movies, pictures, papers, recording, collections) in a digitlaized style which is eventually uploaded on professional websites.  These materials can be found quickly and easily. One of the most well known sites addressing these topics is Michael: Multilingual Inventory of Culture Heritage in Europe, in addition toEuropeana. Moreover, there are special collections in museums such as: the British museum which digitalized 1,993,003 materials out of 8 million.
