Abstract
For collections to be useful they must be both discoverable and accessible. This presentation looks at some of the issues facing collections in the UK, including the extent of un-catalogued and poorly described material (both physical and digital), and describes on-going activity to improve both discoverability and accessibility at a local and national level.
