Sažetak
This paper describes the ongoing project for the museum digital catalogue which is not only meant to be a traditional catalogue describing physical museum objects, but also a presentation of non-material cultural heritage information about the city and its people. According to our research, the public is more interested in the non-material heritage information covering the city’s culture of living, its flavours and mystery, than in the standard museum documentation describing collections and material objects. By providing these two types of cultural information together we have a chance to be different in the world of globalisation. Any form of non-material cultural heritage documentation is an additional opportunity for small communities to preserve their cultures and express their differences. We are facing endless challenges and numerous problems. Documentation of non-material cultural and historic heritage is subject to abuse and arbitrary interpretation to a much higher degree than is the case with documenting material objects. This puts on us all the more responisibility. Any museum is an information generator with the public participating and expressing their needs and suggestions. The people must become the consumers of the values inherent in the material and non-material heritage. Ideally, the public should actively participate as museum consultants and assist in interpreting and recording the non-material cultural heritage.
