| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 圖書資訊與檔案學研究所 === 106 === Nowadays, with technology advancing greatly, museums have developed “online exhibition,” which breaks through its former limitation of traditional forms of display and have the intention of providing audience with multiple touring services. Online exhibition combines several technological entertainments and effects together and communicates by the means of the Internet so as to make audience view the exhibitions easily without going outside.
This convenience also can be seen in archives. With the presentation of the online exhibition, the viewers no longer have to get to the museum in person for any themed exhibition, which spare them their road trip and time and even promote the archive’s popularity. Online exhibition provides exhibitions beyond the space and time limitation, thus acquainting citizens with knowledge and history through online reaction as well as understating the past, the present and the future.
The research aims to propose suggestions for future domestic archival online exhibitions after comparing functions among domestic and foreign websites of archival online exhibition. Based on content analysis approach, this study sets assessing indicators to analyze aforementioned websites.

However, not all of the indicators of foreign websites are higher than those of domestic ones—the indicators of “the news offering and update,” “the offering of relative links,” and “services of interactive games and activities.” In addition, some functions of foreign archival online exhibitions are outstanding enough for us to learn from. First of all, the foreign archival online website is structured within its parent institution. Secondly, Blogging function or social media platforms are established so that more relative information and teaching materials can be provided on foreign websites. Third, there are goods of cultural and creative industry sold in certain stores. Finally, the foreign archival online exhibitions also construct their website on Google Arts & Culture.
