In Lithuania, 96% of national and municipal museums engage in digitization, driven by two key factors: the comprehensive LIMIS system for data collection and public access, and unified processes through the Museum Law and Collection Management Regulations. LIMIS, operational since 2010, manages everything from data input to public dissemination. The 2023 Museum Law amendment designated digitization as a core museum function, while regulations specify technical parameters and quality control standards. The complementary relationship between institutional and technical infrastructure, establishing digital archives as standard museum practice, offers implications for Japan's initiatives.
