The British Museum said on Wednesday it planned to digitise its entire collection, citing the need to secure public access to its vast catalogue after it reported in August that 2,000 artefacts had been stolen or were missing.

    Good. Once they have their copies, they can give all the originals back to the nations that stole them from.

      I think they just mean digitise the catalogue not scan the artefacts - they realised it was very difficult to find out what they actually had, making it difficult to figure out what was taken.
