The organization began as an informal grouping of museums with the goal of automating registration records. With funding from the New York Council on the Arts, MCN developed a prototype mainframe network that was shared by participants from 1968 to 1971. When the funding ended in 1971, MCN was formally incorporated as a nonprofit organization that has since attracted members from around the world. As new technology superseded the original shared registration system, MCN evolved into a network of dedicated professionals wishing to improve their means of developing, managing, and conveying museum information through the use of automation. Through its history, MCN has supported the dissemination of information about the use of computers in museum practice. MCN continues to foster innovation and excellence today by supporting professionals who seek to transform the way their cultural organizations reach, engage, and educate their audiences using digital technologies. MCN organizes an annual conference, the MCN-L discussion forum, special interest groups, an online directory of museum websites, etc. Members include individuals, institutions and companies. The organization is run by a (Board of Directors ). Officers include a president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer.
