  1. NAPLE & Europeana NAPLE Forum Annual Assembly May 13th 2014 Rianne Brouwers – Netherlands Institute for Public Libraries

  2. www.europeana.eu Mission: to open up Europe’s cultural wealth to as many people as possible. Europeana wants to make it shareable, available at the touch of a button, unlocked from our museums, galleries and archives and accessible for the many to pass on and share. In five years, Europeana built an infrastructure that connects over 30 million objects from over 2,500 institutions. Europeana has made all the data available under the most open licensing conditions and has started experimenting with creative re-use of that material. Objectives: • AGGREGATE – build the open and trusted source for European cultural heritage • FACILITATE – support the cultural heritage sector through knowledge transfer, innovation and advocacy • DISTRIBUTION & ENGAGEMENT – make heritage available to users wherever they are, whenever they want it, for any purpose • NETWORK & SUSTAINABILITY

  3. Some projects • Europeana version 2: funds the core business of Europeana: Aggregation, Facilitation, Distributions and Engagement. Activities include efforts to: enhance content; increase and facilitate the re-use of content; develop a sustainable finance model; develop features and functionalities; … • Europeana Creative: will demonstrate that Europeana can facilitate the creative re-use of cultural heritage metadata and content. The project will create five pilot applications in the thematic areas of History Education, Natural History Education, Tourism, Social Netwerks, and Design. • Europeana Food and Drinks: to promote the wider re-use of the digital cultural resources available through Europeana to boost creativity and business development across Europe.
