Culture vultures in Perth and Kinross will have information at their fingertips on the latest community and cultural events thanks to the launch of a new website.
The site, www.culturepk.org.uk, aims to give quick and simple access to services and to bring information on the 17 local library and museum venues into one place.
The new site features 200 pages of the latest local museum and library happenings, with a what’s on guide, a learning section aimed at schools, collections and information on libraries across the region.
Users of services such as eBooks and eMagazines will be able to access these and other resources on the new site.
Culture Perth and Kinross is a charitable trust set up in April to take responsibility for the delivery and development of museum and library services in Perth and Kinross and the new site also offers users the chance to make a donation to the charity if they choose.
Helen Smout, chief executive of the trust, said: “We’ve worked hard to make our site easy to use for everyone, from those who are light users of the internet to people who love their smartphones and tablets.
“There is so much going on across Perth and Kinross and we have lots more planned.
“With more than 600,000 visitors to our venues each year and a busy and exciting year ahead of us, we know this site is both timely and welcome.”
The site was designed by Kinross design and branding agency Flintriver.
Managing director David Williams said: “We’re proud to have been involved in such an important project, from early stage discussions through to launch.
“In partnership with the CPK team, we’ve delivered an effective and easy to use information hub for the community.”
