Europeana Professional http://pro-beta.europeana.eu/ The Europeana Foundation en-us Bolt Publishing Framework http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/publishing-framework Wed, 15 Mar 2017 16:30:00 +0000 publication/41 The Europeana Publishing Framework sets out four scenarios for sharing collections with Europeana, based on what our partners want and are able to provide.

Last update: 15/03/2017

Europeana is evolving. Technology is ever improving. The future Europeana offers the inspired, creative or entrepreneurial the ability to take what our data partners provide and use it. For innovation. For education. For research. For business. For personal enjoyment.

To manage content and deliver it in higher quality to our audiences, we’ve developed four tiers of participation in Europeana. What data partners provide will depend on their own agendas and capabilities, but the higher the quality of information provided by data partners, the more benefit they’ll create for their audiences.

These tiers are based on real examples and have been developed in wide-ranging discussion under the Europeana Creative project and with the Europeana Network Content Re-use Task Force and are recommended to our partners.

The publishing framework clarifies the relationship between Europeana and you, our data partners. It clearly outlines what we will do for you depending on the content and metadata you decide to make available. This makes it easy for you to see what you can get out your collaboration with Europeana.



To further introduce you and your partners to the Framework we created this video and a printable pdf.

The Publishing Framework has been translated in a couple of languages by our partners. Currently available are:

Content Strategy http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/content-strategy Wed, 15 Mar 2017 15:00:00 +0000 noreply@europeana.eu (Henning Scholz) publication/48 Our new Content Strategy will help our organisation and partners to identify what kind of content we need to expand, what content we need to restrain, and who takes ownership of the decision making process.

Europeana’s platform can only be as good as the content it provides access to. For that reason, our new Content Strategy will help our organisation and partners to identify what kind of content we need to expand, what content we need to restrain, and who takes ownership of the decision making process.

This Content Strategy was designed by a team consisting of key Europeana Foundation staff and aggregators representing the domains (museums, libraries, archives, audiovisual archives), and will support us in “getting the right content to the right user at the right time through strategic planning of content creation, delivery, and governance”.

Europeana Publishing Guide http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/publication-policy Wed, 15 Mar 2017 14:55:00 +0000 noreply@europeana.eu (Henning Scholz) publication/10 The Europeana Publishing Guide is a resource for data partners who share collections with Europeana. It outlines the minimum metadata required to incorporate your data in Europeana.

The Europeana Publishing Guide outlines the criteria for submission of metadata to Europeana. We will work with you to make sure that your datasets meet our publication criteria. Because good data gives audiences a better experience and a greater connection with your collections.

We hope that the clear criteria will help you as data partners understand what we need to ensure that your digital data is always seen to be authentic, trustworthy and robust by our audiences. The acceptance criteria are based on real life examples as well as existing documentation and policies (e.g. EDM mapping guidelines & Europeana Licensing Framework).

To accommodate new developments, all acceptance criteria will be reviewed quarterly and new criteria may be added where necessary. Partners will be notified of any new versions of the Europeana Publishing Guide.

Latest version: March 2017

‘Spreading the Word’: Business Plan 2017 http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/spreading-the-word-business-plan-2017 Mon, 27 Feb 2017 12:53:24 +0000 noreply@europeana.eu (Harry Verwayen) publication/49 This business plan presents our objectives for 2017, and how we will work together to achieve these aims.

The 2017 business plan sets out how we’ll align with the strategic priorities that we have developed in our 2020 Strategy to become efficient, engaging and impactful as Europe’s platform for digital cultural heritage. To meet our audience demands and to increase our impact, we have chosen to organise our work around five key markets connected through our platform.

The plan was created with valuable input from our partners and the Europeana Network Association and reflects the views of our broad community.

Benchmarking Europeana against other web services http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/benchmarking-europeana-against-other-web-services Thu, 03 Nov 2016 08:45:07 +0000 m.c.de.niet@library.leidenuniv.nl (Marco De Niet) publication/47 In the months of June and July of 2016 The DEN Foundation, partner of Europeana in the Europeana DSI project, conducted a small comparative research on the cultural content information services available on the Internet.

The goal was to position Europeana within a larger context to better interpret the internal statistics, including those recently made available through the dashboard, and hence assess the overall online performance of Europeana. The Benchmarking report consists of two parts: the benchmarking report as such, and an extensive annex explaining the methodology used to benchmark Europeana against other cultural information services.

Workers Underground: an impact assessment http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/impact-assessment-case-study Fri, 16 Sep 2016 12:31:16 +0000 noreply@europeana.eu (Julia Fallon) publication/46 Workers Underground is a film and case study that explores the social & cultural impact of our long running service: Europeana 1914-1918.


If you wish to know more about undertaking an impact assessment in the cultural heritage sector, this is a good place to start. On this page you can watch the film and download the case study.

In the case study we present the preparation and research that was undertaken for the first application of the Europeana Impact Framework. It explores the processes and tools that were developed to collect and analyse data, as well as the creation of the film itself.

The film narrates the research we undertook on the impact of Europeana 1914-1918. Developed with our partners Whalebone & Greenstone, it marks a different approach to presenting research on impact.

We hope this study supports others in our Network who struggle with the same issues related to impact and impact assessment. We welcome your feedback, your comments and your own experiences. We invite you to join us as we continue to build our understanding of this complex subject.

Europeana Search Strategy http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/europeana-search-strategy Wed, 15 Jun 2016 11:59:00 +0000 noreply@europeana.eu (David Haskiya) publication/44 Search has long been acknowledged as a difficult area for the Europeana platform.

This document discusses the question of the search and navigation paradigm required for a platform that attempts to represent not just an individual exhibition or organisation, but the GLAM sector as a whole. How does one navigate and discover ‘culture’, at scale?

Sharing the beautiful thing: Annual Report 2015 http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/sharing-the-beautiful-thing-annual-report-2015 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 08:02:00 +0000 publication/43 The annual report shows how together last year we worked towards the goals set out in both our long-term strategy and our yearly business plan. In 2015, we promised to work together on making the beautiful thing.

The annual report shows how together last year we worked towards the goals set out in both our long-term strategy and our yearly business plan.

The Europeana Strategy 2015-2020 looks towards the development of a multi-sided platform - a networked organization with the world’s largest repository of trusted, accessible and re-usable digital heritage. We’re definitely on our way there.

In 2015, we promised to work together on making the beautiful thing. We aimed to ensure our core infrastructure, processes and products were fit for purpose so all our partners and audiences could do more with the data.

The highlights of 2015? A much improved website - Europeana Collections - showcasing Europe’s fascinating cultural heritage. And a new Europeana Publishing Framework and infrastructure making it easier for cultural organizations to share that heritage.

Creating Cultural Connections: Business Plan 2016 http://test.pro.eanadev.org/publication/creating-cultural-connections-business-plan-2016 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 16:23:20 +0000 noreply@europeana.eu (Harry Verwayen) publication/42 How can we create stronger cultural connections? Read our Business Plan for 2016

This year's business plan sets out how we’ll carry out our Strategy 2015-2020. It was created through valuable discussions with our partners and Network Association and reflects the views of our broad community. Rather than concentrating on one year only, we decided to expand our vision and lay out our priorities for the next two years, to be able to focus on reaching goals rather than ticking off tasks. Obviously, things will develop along the way, so we’ll update it next year to reflect that.

We have called this business plan ‘Creating Cultural Connections’ because we feel that removing obstacles between institutions, large and small, who have heritage to share and users who are looking for it, is our main focus for the year.
