      <abstract>
        <p>The article on the example of five countries examines digital collections dedicated to preserving and popularizing intangible cultural heritage in the web information environment, representing a sufficient number of objects/practices of intangible cultural heritage presented in multimedia resources. The intelligence web analysis of intangible digital cultural heritage collections is conduced. It is shown that in the context of marketing and communication policy, it is rational to use social network platforms and mass media to promote intangible cultural heritage, encouraging public interest in intangible cultural heritage objects. Furthermore, taking into account many intangible cultural heritage objects of individual projects entering the information resources, we can say that popularization of intangible cultural heritage within the scope of scientific, educational, and entertainment activities, in particular both in the mass media and social networks, will lead to social interest. As a result, the nation's identity, awareness, skills, and knowledge will be created. The scientific novelty of the work consists of expanding ideas for activities aimed at protecting and preserving intangible cultural heritage at the global and national levels. Analysis of five digital collections of intangible cultural heritage was analyzed in the web information environment. Information resources of the hosted intangible cultural heritage digital collections, which represent Eastern, Western and Northern Europe and act as indicators of interest in society and are a source of information and a means of popularizing intangible cultural heritage objects, are considered.</p>

      <title>1. Introduction</title>
      <p>Under modern conditions, the ability of culture to change society becomes obvious. Various onsets
of culture, either valuable historical sites, museums, monuments, customs or modern art forms enrich
our daily lives in a various ways. Cultural heritage is an inexhaustible resource of nation, which
encourages uniting communities that have been separated as a result of tremendous changes and
economic instability. Creativity, in its turn, contributes to the creation of open, inclusive and pluralistic
societies. Together, heritage and creativity lay foundations for dynamic, innovative and prosperous
societies in which knowledge is of fundamental importance.</p>
      <p>In such conditions, the study of global trends and national principles of intangible cultural heritage
protection and preservation acquires noteworthy significance, which determines the relevance of the
presented scientific research.</p>
      <p>The objective of the work is to reveal global and national aspects of activities related to the
protection and preservation of intangible cultural heritage and ensuring access for users as well as consider
digital collections dedicated to preservation and popularization of intangible cultural heritage in the
web-based information environment.</p>
      <p>The research methodology consists in applying the general scientific and special methods, in
particular the system approach, analysis, synthesis, logical method, method of research results
visualization. Methods of content analysis, comparative and analytical monitoring of Internet
resources for preservation of intangible cultural heritage were used to track the state of digital
collections in the web information environment.</p>

      <title>2. Related Work</title>
      <p>Separate aspects of the study of intangible cultural heritage of Ukraine protection and
determination of the important role played by libraries, in particular in its documentation, research,
preservation, popularization and creation of the knowledge of society are considered in scientific works [1-4].
Research of intangible cultural heritage presentation on the Internet can also be taken from foreign
experience. In particular, M. T. Artese and I. Gagliardi presented a cataloging card of intangible
cultural heritage on the Internet for its inventory, developed within the framework of the Italian-Swiss
border cooperation project and an analysis of its integration with an archival database (Lombardy).
Such a project enabled obtaining a data structure containing an inventory and a detailed catalog of
intangible objects [5]. In his work, M. Ziku discusses open data standards and considers the
possibility of using software platforms for semantically based digital documentation of intangible cultural
heritage by archival, library, and museum institutions [6] and cyber security issues [7-9] are actual for
digitalization era [10, 11]. Methods of protecting intangible cultural heritage in the era of
technological progress [12-14], particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, were considered in his research by
Afolasade A. Adewumi [15]. A team of scientists from the University of Morocco considers the
concept of communication in social networks as a successful marketing strategy for the promotion of
intangible cultural heritage [16] and web project management [17, 18]. Another relevant study was
conducted by French scientists, who considered the presentation of intangible cultural heritage in the
Instagram social network in the context of promoting the development of tourism [19].</p>
      <p>To provide the culture with a worthy place in developing strategies and mechanisms, UNESCO
works in several directions. In particular, it leads a global campaign in support of culture and
development, and cooperates with the international community to develop and implement a clear policy
and legal framework in this field. The conducts work on the ground, assisting governments and
interested parties of regional significance concerning heritage preservation, developing creative industries,
and promoting pluralism in culture.</p>
      <p>Considering the growing danger of losing valuable information that defines the world knowledge
heritage, identity, history, and values of humanity, UNESCO seeks to increase the attention of
governments, relevant institutions, and the general public to the importance of preserving information for
present and future generations. Documentary heritage is the memory of humanity. Still, there is a
constant threat of its disappearance forever.</p>
      <p>The first and most urgent need is to preserve the documentary heritage of world importance. It is
also essential to make it available to as many people as possible using the most appropriate
technologies. Therefore, UNESCO takes measures to protect documentary and audiovisual heritage with the
help of the "Memory of the World" program, the essence of which is based on the fact that the world's
documentary heritage belongs to everyone. It should be fully preserved, protected, and accessible to
everyone without any obstacles.</p>
      <p>Various forms of intangible cultural heritage constitute enormous wealth. It is known that it is also
called "live heritage," which includes customs, knowledge, and skills passed on from generation to
generation.</p>
      <p>The 2003 UNESCO Convention on the National Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage
aims to preserve these assets, ensure their viability and create conditions for their full potential in the
interests of sustainable development. UNESCO's activities in this field aim to support member states
worldwide, promote international cooperation in the protection of live heritage and create an
institutional and professional environment conducive to the protection of intangible heritage [20].</p>
      <p>The objectives of this Convention include the protection of intangible cultural heritage; ensuring
respect for the cultural heritage of relevant communities, groups, and individuals; increasing the level
of knowledge about the importance of intangible cultural heritage and its mutual recognition at the
local, national, and international levels; international cooperation and assistance [20].</p>
      <p>Intangible cultural heritage (ICH) is defined as customs, forms of display and expression,
knowledge and skills, as well as related tools, objects, artifacts, and cultural spaces recognized by
communities, groups, and, in some cases, individuals as part of their cultural heritage. This intangible
cultural heritage, transmitted from generation to generation, is constantly reproduced by communities
and groups under the influence of the environment and their surroundings, interaction with nature and
history, and forms their sense of identity and continuity, thereby promoting respect for cultural
diversity and human creativity. Only intangible cultural heritage compatible with current international
human rights law, with mutual respect between communities, groups, and individuals, and with
sustainable development is included in the scope of this Convention. Intangible cultural heritage functions, in
particular, in the following areas: oral traditions and forms of expression, in particular in language as
a means of communication of intangible cultural heritage keepers; performing arts; customs,
ceremonies, holidays; knowledge and practice related to nature and the universe; knowledge and skills related
to traditional crafts (Fig. 1.).</p>
      <p>Though fragile, intangible cultural heritage is nevertheless essential in preserving cultural diversity
in growing globalization. Understanding the intangible cultural heritage of different communities
promotes intercultural dialogue and mutual respect for other ways of life. Intangible cultural heritage
is not a direct cultural expression but a wealth of knowledge and skills transmitted through it from
generation to generation. This knowledge transfer's social and economic value is relevant for minority
groups and significant social groups within the state.</p>
      <p>Intangible cultural heritage is inherited from traditions of the past and contemporary rural and
urban practices involving diverse cultural groups. Intangible cultural heritage does not question whether
certain practices are culture-specific. It promotes social cohesion by encouraging a sense of identity
and responsibility that helps people feel part of one or different communities or society in general.
Intangible cultural heritage is not only valued as a cultural asset. It develops in communities and
depends on those whose knowledge of traditions, skills and customs is passed on from generation to
generation. Intangible cultural heritage can be property only when it is recognized by the
communities, groups or individuals who create, maintain and transmit it; without their recognition, no one else
can decide for them whether an expression or practice of their heritage is [21].</p>
      <p>Having joined the UNESCO Convention on the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage
in 2008 (Law of Ukraine on 06.03.2008 No. 132 "On the Accession of Ukraine to the Convention on
the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage"), Ukraine must fulfill all obligations arising
from its provisions. The Convention proclaims the importance of intangible cultural heritage as the
primary source of cultural diversity, which is also emphasized in the UN Recommendations on the
preservation of traditional culture and folklore [22]. The Ukrainian Center for Cultural Studies
(hereinafter referred to as the Ukrainian Center for Cultural Studies) was designated as an institution for
the implementation of the provisions of the Convention, and the National List of Elements of
Intangible Cultural Heritage was formed.</p>
      <p>In 2012, the Order of the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine on 14.12.2012 No. 1521 "On the approval
of the sample form of the registration card of the object (element) of the intangible cultural heritage of
Ukraine and the definition of the objects of the intangible cultural heritage" started maintaining the
list of elements of the intangible cultural heritage of Ukraine. However, the National List of Elements
of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine was officially created by the Order of the Ministry of
Culture of Ukraine dated February 12, 2018 No. 105 "On the Approval of the National List of
Elements of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine", an appendix to which is actually the National
List. New elements of the National Cultural Heritage of Ukraine are included in the National List
based on the recommendations of the Expert Council on Intangible Cultural Heritage, which operates
under the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine, by amending the Appendix to the
Order. As of September 1, 2021, Ukraine's National List of Elements of the Intangible Cultural
Heritage includes 26 elements of the ICH [22].</p>
      <p>The inclusion of elements in the National List is carried out following the Procedure for
Maintaining the National List of Elements of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine, as well as based on
the decision of the Expert Council of the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine, which includes well-known
folklorists and ethnographers [23]. The procedure defines the mechanism for creating and maintaining
the National List of Elements of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine, a state information
system that ensures collection, accumulation, processing, protection, accounting and access to
information on the elements of intangible cultural heritage available on the territory of Ukraine for their
protection. The national list is formed based on the information contained in the registration card of
the ICH element, auxiliary materials that record and demonstrate the ICH element (audio, photo, and
video materials stored on separate electronic media (optical disk, memory card, flash drive hard disk)
[24].</p>
      <p>An ICH element included in the National List must meet the following criteria:
• represent at least one branch of the ICH defined by the Convention;
• reproduce traditional Ukrainian culture or traditional cultures of national minorities living on
the territory of Ukraine;
• be recognized by communities or a group of persons as their ICH;
• go through the process of passing on from generation to generation on the date of submission
of the petition for its inclusion in the National List;
• be applied in practice (to function) on the date of submission of the petition for its inclusion in
the National List.</p>
      <p>Intangible cultural heritage is traditions that have been formed over many centuries. They have no
clear date of initiation, but they make it possible to observe the stages of the ethnocultures
development and their influence on the development of Ukrainian culture over the centuries. To implement
the Convention, the UCCR has been given the appropriate powers to provide scientific and
methodological support to implement the Convention in Ukraine.</p>

      <title>3. Analysis of the foreign experience of presenting digital collections of intangible cultural heritage</title>
      <p>Let's consider digital collections in the example of the four countries dedicated to preserving and
popularizing intangible cultural heritage in the web information environment.</p>
      <p>In 2002 development of the National Register of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Bulgaria began,
and in 2008 the "Living Human Treasures - Bulgaria" National System was launched [25].
Representatives and experts from the Ministry of Culture of Bulgaria and the Institute of Folklore of the
Bulgarian Academy of Sciences participated in this project. The "Living Human Treasures - Bulgaria"
information resource contains a division of intangible cultural heritage into six categories, similar to
those defined in Article 2.2 of the 2003 UNESCO Convention. However, this division was applied to
the inherent national Bulgarian intangible cultural heritage: traditional holidays and ceremonies;
traditional songs and instrumental compositions, folk dances and games for children; oral tradition;
traditional works of sculpture and products of domestic production; folk medicine.</p>
      <p>It is also worth noting that each category is divided into subcategories. For example traditional
celebrations of family rites are divided into birth rites, wedding rites, and funeral rites. The Digital
collection contains descriptive text and 378 images describing cultural practices.</p>
      <p>In accordance with the provisions of the 2003 Convention, since 2008 France has created its own
inventory of intangible cultural heritage to identify all elements of intangible cultural heritage located
on its territory. In 2017, a platform called PCI-Lab - L'Inventaire du Patrimoine culturel immatériel en
France was created for the French inventory of intangible cultural heritage [26]. The PCI-Lab project
was developed and implemented by CIRDOC - Institut Occitan de Cultura ethnopole under the
direction of the Department of Research Management and Scientific Policy of the Ministry of Culture
(General Directorate of Heritage) to promote research and encourage the popularization of intangible
cultural heritage that web 3.0 offers today. The project aims to facilitate access to the French
intangible cultural heritage inventory for any interested audience. To promote intangible cultural heritage,
PCI Lab uses data from the open data platform, the online encyclopedia Wikipedia, to enrich the
database (thematic queries, interactive cartography, visualization of related videos, etc.) helpful in
finding inventory records. To do this, each element inventoried by the Ministry of Culture must
correspond to the content of data specific for Wikipedia. As a result, the Wikipedia database directly
enriches the Pci Lab, which uses it as a thesaurus for indexing inventory entries.</p>
      <p>After their confirmation by the Ministry of Culture, all the inventory sheets that have been
integrated into the national inventory of intangible cultural heritage in France are evaluated in PciLab. A
significant part of inventory sheets are accompanied by multimedia content (photos, video and/or
audio).</p>
      <p>Digital collection contains a correspondingly detailed description (textual content), 110 videos,
and approximately 501 images describing cultural practices; material elements related to practice,
technical data; bibliographical elements; training modes and practice transfer.</p>
      <p>In 2013, Finland ratified the UNESCO Convention on the Intangible Cultural Heritage
Preservation, and in 2016, as a part of the Convention implementation, the Finnish National Council of
Antiquities launched the "Wiki-inventory for living heritage" project [27]. The "Wiki-inventory for living
heritage" project was developed and implemented by the Cultural Heritage Agency of Finland, an
expert agency under the Ministry of Education and Culture of Finland and with the members of the
Finnish Wiki community in consultation with heritage communities. This project allows different
groups, associations, and communities to present and promote intangible cultural heritage in nine
categories. Any community can report to the Wiki-inventory about phenomena that it regards as
intangible cultural heritage, but the National Council of Antiquities checks and moderates the notices.</p>
      <p>The Cultural Heritage Agency of Finland recommends intangible cultural heritage practices to be
included in the National Register of Living Heritage, but the final decision rests with the Ministry of
Education and Culture of Finland. Elements included in the national living heritage cadastre can be
nominated for inclusion in the UNESCO List of Intangible Cultural Heritage.</p>
      <p>Digital collection contains a correspondingly detailed description (textual content), approximately
308 images describing cultural practices, bibliography and links to external sources of information;
practicing tradition; background and history of the tradition, and image metadata.</p>
      <p>Thus, from the two analyzed above projects, which are implemented with the help of wiki
technologies, we can conclude that Wikipedia is considered an important global social and information
service designed to reflect social and cultural events on both a global and national scale [28] and is a
particularly effective channel to popularize data on intangible cultural heritage.</p>
      <p>In 2011, Poland ratified the UNESCO Convention on the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural
Heritage, and in 2012 the portal "Niematerialne Dziedzictwo Kulturowe" [29] operated by the National
Heritage Institute. On the portal, you can find information about current activities, initiatives, and
projects related to the living intangible heritage of Poland [29].</p>
      <p>An essential aspect of the website is the systematically updated National List of Intangible Cultural
Heritage, a list of living intangible heritage in Poland. Users can download an application template on
the website and instructions to help them complete it.</p>
      <p>The Digital collection contains a correspondingly detailed description of the practice (textual
content) and approximately 69 images describing cultural practices.</p>
      <p>Based on the above-mentioned digital collections of intangible cultural heritage in the web
information environment, we will characterize according to the established criteria (Tab. 1.).</p>
      <p>As can be seen from the characteristics of the four analyzed digital collections of intangible
cultural heritage, only one information resource is present in social networks - "Wiki-inventory for living
heritage". In "Niematerialne Dziedzictwo Kulturowe" when describing lists of intangible cultural
heritage, no bibliography is indicated. Still, in the "Reading Hall" section, there is a list of electronic
publications related to intangible cultural heritage. In "Living Human Treasures - Bulgaria," there are
no additional features on the information resource.</p>

      <title>4. Intelligence Web Analysis of the Ukrainian experience of presenting digital collections of intangible cultural heritage</title>
      <p>Identification, research, and dissemination of information on the elements of the intangible cultural
heritage of Ukraine are key to fulfilling the obligations within the Convention implementation
framework. The Ministry of Culture approved the sample form of the accounting registration card of
intangible cultural heritage elements. However, this is insufficient to ensure a complete account of
intangible cultural heritage elements. It is necessary to develop methodological recommendations for
preparing and executing documents regarding the inclusion of the intangible cultural heritage elements of
Ukraine into the UNESCO lists [23]. Besides, a draft of the Law of Ukraine "On Intangible Cultural
Heritage" has been developed, which is currently being finalized by the Expert Council of the
Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine [22].</p>
      <p>The two projects, namely "Virtual Museum of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine" (2018)
and "Authentic Ukraine: Intangible Cultural Heritage" (2019), became an essential step for
popularizing the cultural traditions of Ukraine, i.e., preservation of knowledge, methods, techniques, skills that
are extremely important for the further spread and development of these traditions. Within the
framework of the "Virtual Museum of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine" project, a heritage of
Ukrainian culture was researched, recreated, and represented. Its elements are included in the National
List of Intangible Cultural Heritage. The Virtual Museum of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine
has a Facebook page [30]. It is known that a museum's mission is to preserve and pass on knowledge,
to expand possibilities of cultural diversity perception, and to teach people to respect it. The main goal
of the virtual museum is to reproduce and present the intangible cultural heritage of Ukraine in a
modern and accessible form as well as to increase the number of persons interested in getting
acquainted with the cultural heritage of our people and studying traditions, which will mainly contribute
to the formation of a unified cultural space of Ukraine [22].</p>
      <p>On the virtual museum website [22], people can familiarize themselves with the elements of
intangible cultural heritage included in the National List of Elements of Intangible Cultural Heritage of
Ukraine, with the winning elements of the "Living Tradition" contest. The museum exposition
contains a huge number of photo and video illustrations, with a meaningful story added to each of the
elements, which highlights the general characteristics of the element, tells about the history of the
element, its carriers, and traditions, and measures for revival, preservation, and popularization. One of
the sections of the museum offers educational entertainment: puzzles, crosswords, and coloring pages,
which will be useful to teachers and beginners who are interested in one or another direction of folk
art. The uniqueness of the museum lies in the combination of existing cultural and research initiatives,
promotion of maximum dissemination of knowledge about the traditional culture of Ukrainians,
creation of a precedent for the introduction of a modern accounting format of intangible cultural heritage
objects according to the cluster (regional) methodology [22].</p>
      <p>The Domain analysis (see Fig. 2) of the information resource of the Virtual Museum of the
Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine [22] using Semrush service [31] shows a general view of metrics
and performance trends compared to last month.</p>
      <p>Fig 3 represents estimations of any website's desktop and mobile traffic of information resource of
the Virtual Museum of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine based on SEMrush's proprietary
AI [31] and machine learning algorithms, petabytes of clickstream data, and Big Data technologies.</p>
      <p>Figure 4 shows the main keywords that perform best for information resource of the Virtual
Museum of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine rivals and uncover new means of getting this
information resource on SERP [31] and monitoring position changes trend.
• In the "Knowledge and practices related to nature and the universe" section, the traditions,
customs, rites, and practices that made up the household culture of the Ukrainian people and
personified their knowledge about the surrounding world are described.
• The "Traditional crafts" section tells about Ukrainian crafts, particularly pottery, painting,
weaving, embroidery, carving, wickerwork, blacksmithing, toy making, and pysanka making.</p>
      <p>The site provides an opportunity to add and expand information content; here, users can find the
author's descriptive texts, audio and video materials, illustrations, 3D images, and virtual tours.
Information is available in Ukrainian and English.</p>
      <p>Its educational component is an essential part of the "Authentic Ukraine" project. At the end of
each chapter, there are interactive tests that teachers can use during the educational process, which
makes the platform a bright and convenient tool for educational activities in schools and state
institutions [32].</p>
      <p>Based on the above-mentioned digital collections of intangible cultural heritage in the Ukrainian
web information environment, we will perform a characterization according to the established criteria
(Tab. 2).</p>
      <p>As can be seen from Table 2, digital collections representing intangible cultural heritage have their
representations in social networks. When describing digital collections, information resources include
a bibliography and additional features such as interactive maps, placement of tests, and 3D tours.</p>
      <p>Investigating the aspects of intangible cultural heritage preservation and popularization, the
question of users' interest in learning about intangible cultural heritage arises. Users' interest in the
intangible cultural heritage of Ukraine can be traced with the help of statistics of views on Wikipedia as the
most popular encyclopedia in the world for the "Intangible cultural heritage of Ukraine" query
(Tab.3).</p>
      <p>As we can see from Table 3, beginning in March 2018, the interest of Internet users is noticeably
increasing. During all the years, the trend of a maximum number of views is obvious in
DecemberNovember. In our opinion, such annual bursts of views on the request of "Intangible cultural heritage
of Ukraine" in Wikipedia are caused by the upcoming New Year and Christmas holidays, which cause
to satisfy the Internet users' requests in search of customs, rites, and celebrations of the calendar cycle.</p>
      <p>We will separately consider the year 2022 until July (Fig. 7). As we can see from the figure, since
January, there has been a tendency towards a possible increase in views of the "Intangible cultural
heritage of Ukraine" in Wikipedia every month. However, on February 24, 2022, Russia launched a
large-scale invasion of Ukraine, destructive in all possible directions: military and civilian casualties,
environmental crimes, and destruction of the Ukrainian cultural heritage. Eradication of the language
and culture became the primary goal of the war started by Russia. The Russian military forces
destroyed infrastructure under the pretext of fighting Nazism and ruined cultural heritage.</p>
      <p>In the first month of the war, we observe a sharp drop in views, which is accompanied by the
people staying in bomb shelters from missile strikes and the volunteer movement of Ukrainian society.</p>
      <p>From the following data, we observe an increase in interest in Wikipedia's "Intangible cultural
heritage of Ukraine" page. We also note that in July, there was a surge and growth to 988 views by
unique users of this page, which is the highest number of views for all the previous years. It is also
worth noting that the "Intangible cultural heritage of Ukraine" page on Wikipedia has not been
reviewed in foreign languages since March 2022. In our opinion, the Russian invasion of Ukraine
caused a great interest of the world community to the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine page on
Wikipedia, and a large number of non-Ukrainian-speaking users made a review, namely 1,514 views
in English and 170 views in Turkish during the period from March to July (inclusive) 2022, and
citizens made 3,280 views of Ukraine. This confirms that intangible values acquire a new meaning and
are significant for the world community as a considerable world asset.</p>
      <p>In July, the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine issued two orders to supplement
the National List of Elements of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine.</p>

          <p>A comparative intellectual analysis of five information resources (L'Inventaire du Patrimoine
culturel immatériel en France (PCI-Lab), Wiki-inventory for living heritage, Niematerialne Dziedzictwo
Kulturowe, Living Human Treasures - Bulgaria, Virtual museum of the intangible cultural heritage of
Ukraine) was carried out using the Semrush service [31].</p>
          <p>A graphic representation of the activity of these information resources by month is presented in
Figure 8, and statistics of these five information resources by year are shown in Figure 9.</p>
          <p>Figures 10, 11, 12 represent comparative histograms of visits to resources of five intangible
cultural heritage objects. Here, the dashed line shows the average visit by unique users to the researched
resources. Fig. 10 represents a comparative histogram of unique daily visits to the resources of five
intangible cultural heritage objects.</p>
          <p>Having analyzed Fig. 10 and the data of unique daily visits to resources in Table 4, it can be easily
seen that visitors to the Living Human Treasures - Bulgaria resource chose this resource twice as
often as compared to the average value of all the five investigated intangible cultural heritage sites. At
the same time, visits to the Virtual Museum of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Ukraine
resource were twice as low as compared to the average value.</p>
          <p>The histogram of unique monthly visits to the resources of the five objects of intangible cultural
heritage is presented in Fig. 11. The same histogram regarding annual visits is shown in Fig. 12.</p>
          <p>The nature of monthly and annual visits and the ratio of all investigated resources of the five
intangible cultural heritage sites are preserved. From the average researched, visits to L'Inventaire du
Patrimoine culturel immatériel en France (PCI-Lab) are 19% less, and Wiki-inventory for living
heritage is 16% less. Also, the Niematerialne Dziedzictwo Kulturowe resource was visited 33% less
often than the average value of the studied resources.</p>
          <p>The effect of population amount on the number of visits is ambiguous. And we cannot say that the
larger the country's population, the more people visit resources that display information about objects
of intangible cultural heritage. It is so because the resource Living Human Treasures - Bulgaria,
which provides information about objects of the intangible cultural heritage of Iceland, was visited
daily by one out of three hundred citizens. And the Virtual Museum of the Intangible Cultural
Heritage of Ukraine is seen by approximately every nine thousand unique visitors daily. This raises
the question, at the same time, that popularizing intangible cultural heritage objects and attitude to
one's heritage can affect the number of visits to such resources. Therefore, this study shows that some
resources need to make sufficient efforts for their popularization and fullness of resources.</p>

      <title>6. Conclusions</title>
      <p>At the current stage of our country's development, joining the European integration processes and
striving for a worthy representation of Ukrainian culture in the world information space are irreversible.
Creation of the Ukrainian people's historical and cultural heritage resource has become one of the activities
directions for libraries, archives, museums, and other institutions related to national memory, an integral
part of the national bibliography, archeography and archival studies, museology of Ukraine in its broad
sense as a resource of national documentary memory. As the study of the considered digital collections
showed, namely on the example of the five countries dedicated to the preservation and popularization of
intangible cultural heritage in the web information environment, an important place is occupied by the
mental attitude of society towards its culture and values built on the legacy of previous generations. An
analysis of interest in daily, monthly, and annual visits to digital collections of five intangible cultural
heritage sites in five countries of the world was conducted. We believe that in the context of marketing and
communication policy, it is rational to use social network platforms and mass media to popularize
intangible cultural heritage, promoting public interest in intangible cultural heritage objects. The study showed
that the interest in objects of intangible cultural heritage and such objects added to digital collections is
served by a certain surge in society or a particular defining event, which is followed by a re-awareness of
all the values.</p>
      <p>Also, taking into account the number of visits to the information resources of intangible cultural
heritage objects of individual projects, we can say that intangible cultural heritage popularization
within the scope of scientific, educational, and entertainment activities, in particular both in the mass
media and social networks, will lead to social interest. As a result, the nation's identity, awareness,
skills and knowledge will be built.</p>
      <p>Today, this large-scale work acquires a new quality in connection with the entry of society into the
digital era, when the documentary resource and the corresponding scientific and reference apparatus
are actively integrated into the Ukrainian information space and the world network.</p>
