We reply to the comments made by Benvenuti et al. (2022) about our paper on the Italian natural history museums and scientific collections and the need of a centralized hub and repository. While agreeing that digitization is a useful tool to valorize each museum and collection, we still believe that the suggestion of a centralized hub is valid and necessary. This would largely help in boosting coordination among museums, sharing personnel and resources, and in providing a place to deposit scientific collections that do not fit the scope of smaller museums.
我们回复了本韦努蒂等人(2022年)对我们关于意大利自然历史博物馆和科学藏品以及建立一个集中枢纽和存储库必要性的论文所发表的评论。虽然我们认同数字化是提升每个博物馆和藏品价值的有用工具,但我们仍然认为建立一个集中枢纽的建议是合理且必要的。这将在很大程度上有助于促进博物馆之间的协调、人员和资源的共享,并为存放不符合小型博物馆范围的科学藏品提供一个场所。
