On Monday last week Collections Trust hosted the second Europeana-UK Conference at the Kingsway Hall Hotel in London.
Over 75 attended the conference this year, an increase of 25% on 2009. Organisations included the full range from nationals to small local museums, and all parts of the UK were represented.
Europeana has just harvested, and put online in its portal two major collections. Both were harvested from our national aggregator - Culture Grid. The first is c93,000 records, from many organisations, in the Vissual Arts Data Service collections. At the same time the c55,000 English Heritage’s ViewFinder images were also made available.
Europeana has successfully ingested the first set of content via the Collections Trust run national aggregator, Culture Grid. (more…)
