Potential world access raises the issue of multidisciplinarity, multiculturalism and multilingualism, especially in regard with an homogenous metamuseum, a unique entity. There is a risk of standardization, both in content and in presentation, while an opportunity for all to access different kinds of information. The balance seems very difficult to achieve and is a challenge for museums. There is a need for museums to gather within networks, as, for instance, a common practice of museums is to lend each other objects or artworks for exhibitions, while they hardly – never ? – link each other items for online presentation. But these networks should highlight specificities of collections and differences among them. Language diversity as well, to permit more people to access the site, is to be advocated.
