“Digitisation of Public Domain content does not
create new rights over it: works that are in the
Public Domain in analogue form continue to be in
the Public Domain once they have been digitised.”

“(In 2020) Europeana will have contributed to the aims
of the European Union to foster ‘Unity in Diversity’,
‘Smart Inclusive Growth’ and a ‘Digital Single Market’.
We will have increased the feeling of a shared European
identity through cultural heritage for European citizens…

…Cultural heritage will be used and enjoyed across
national borders for work, learning or pleasure
because we will have developed and implemented
interoperable standards, frameworks and intellectual
property rights that make it work.
We will have increased the quality and usability of
digital cultural heritage with a powerful network of
game changers from Europe’s cultural sector.”

Pain points
Enhance semantic interoperability, improve the quality and findability of
content, make the user experience more engaging, and make it easy and
rewarding for content providers to deliver and track use of their data.

“Europeana is relevant to EU
needs and priorities, as it provides
added value by creating a network
of experts and cultural heritage
institutions, enables European
cooperation, as well as improves
the availability and re-use of
European cultural heritage across
sectors and across national
borders.”

WHY
have we digitised Europe’s cultural heritage?

21.
WHAT
do we thereby hope to achieve as a sector?

22.
“Europeana started 5 years ago as a big political idea to
unite Europe through culture by making our heritage
available to all for work, learning or pleasure. A deeply
felt belief that our shared cultural heritage
fundamentally belongs to all of us, and is therefore too
important to leave to market forces alone to digitise
and make available.”
Europeana Strategy 2015-2020

Europe’s cultural heritage institutions

26.
Main target group:

do we demonstrate that aspirations turn into reality?

28.
“If you work in a purpose driven,
non-profit organisation and more specifically
in the digital Cultural Heritage sector,
we share a problem: we should be feeling fine
and dandy because we work for a great cause,
but we have very few instruments at our disposal
to assess the results of our actions and be happy about it.”
