Summary/Abstract: In the state of emergency caused by the coronavirus pandemic, much cultural content and many programmes in Croatia and the world had to be postponed in order to abide to the measures proscribed by civil protection bodies. In that situation, many cultural and educational institutions decided to offer their content freely to the public, and public broadcasting services, as well as some private ones, emitted educational content through their channels. The aims of this paper are to show the importance of digitalisation of cultural and educational content and the role of the media in its promotion and representation to the public. The paper will show how cultural institutions in Croatia adapted to the newly formed situation and how much advantage of the Internet they took, as well as how Croatian Radiotelevision, which emits cultural-artistic and scientific programme on its third channel, adapted its scheme in relation to the period when there were no measures proscribed. Moreover, possibilities of digitalisation and content placement which new media provide to cultural institutions as well as individuals will be shown.
