AbstractIn this chapter we propose action research as a vehicle for reflectivepractice and organisational learning. We consider organisational learningessential to getting the most out of the digital opportunities and challengesthat museums are currently facing. We show how the GIFT action researchprocess functioned as a cross-organisational community of practice (COP)with participants from 10 museums in Europe and USA. The COP provideda safe space for reflection on museum practice for museum professionalsand resulted in a set of recommendations on novel ways of working. Theseways of working are illustrated with examples from our process. Finally,we discuss some barriers for engaging in action research, embeddinglearning and sustaining COPs
