Network for Collections Management and Contemporary Documentation in Finland

Welcome to TAKO’s website!

Here you will find information about the network’s activities, pool-based work and current events. The TAKO network includes a wide range of museums, such as cultural history museums, art museums, biographical museums and specialist museums. The museums are located across Finland and also differ in terms of their resources, which is one of the strengths of TAKO collaboration. Through cooperation between these museums, we work over the long term to develop collections-related tasks across the Finnish museum field.

The Museum Documentation and Collections Collaboration Network TAKO ry was established on 18 June 2024. We are a network for documentation and collections collaboration between professional museums. We coordinate the national division of responsibilities in documentation, promote diverse collections work and provide a forum for sharing expertise.
