Learning, researching and understanding

The Dutch Photography Museum (Nederlands Fotomuseum) is one of the primary museums of the world. Not only a great place of exhibition, but also a fantastic resource for private collectors and researchers. The online catalog offers information and preview over 300,000 digitized items.
The museum shop (and webshop) offers all materials needed for storing and restoring private archives. And its educational programs, from one-day workshops to excellent online material offer practical training to the preservation, use, research and further use of photographic materials. A vast amount of the collection can not only be reviewed, but copies can be ordered in file format or in prints.
The greatest thing is the online educational program (together with such prestigious institutions as the Huis Marseille in Amsterdam (contemporary photograpy), the FotoMuseum in Antwerpen and the Fotodok in Utrecht (documentary). Fotoleren.nl is available only in Dutch, and it is a fantastic resource for photographers, collectors and archivists.
