European Network on Archival Cooperation
Date du début: 1 nov. 2010,

The project is aimed at effectively establishing and gradually expanding a European network for written cultural heritage, which is supposed to strengthen people's awareness of Europe's common historical past and the historical memory of Europe's countries and cultures by means of developing innovative strategies.It is most of all Europe's numerous archival institutions that are to be considered the guardians of such historical memory. All information kept within those archives constitutes the basis of the continent's identity and that of its countries, people and culture. Making use of these unique records has so far been a restricted business. The purpose of the project is to offer all European citizens comprehensive & easy access to their historical memory via the Internet.To this end, the project has in compliance with the Culture Programme (2007-2013) the following objectives:1 enlarge the already existing network of European cultural institutions (ICARUS) as to advance the digitisation and indexing of records within archives on a national basis. This in turn will promote the intercultural dialogue between institutions as well as considerably increase the amount of digital content on European archive portals (APEnet, Europeana) through further historical source material.2 demonstrate best practice in the implementation of the project results by developing collaborative tools, by using the digital historical libraries at universities and schools or for education and training programmes.3 regular exchange knowledge & experiences between persons and institutions involved at meetings, workshops, staff exchange and training programmes, conferences and by means of admitting new partners into the network.4 publish the project results both within the network and to the general public, which will be done via a website, an online communication platform, e-newsletters, radio and TV broadcasts, printed brochures and advertisements in newspapers and magazines.
