The Digicult web service is now on CORDIS
CORDIS (the European Commission's on-line Research and Development information service) is now host to the Digicult (Digital Heritage and Cultural Content) web service. The Digicult web service is part of Key Action 3 (multimedia content and tools) of the European Commission's IST programme (for a User-friendly Information Society). Work under this Key Action is aimed at expanding the contribution of libraries, museums and archives to the emerging culture economy, including economic, scientific and technological development. It has three research priorities: - Ensuring integrated access to collections and materials held in libraries, museums and archives; - Improving the operational efficiency of large-scale content holdings by means of powerful interfacing and management techniques; - Preserving and accessing multimedia content of various types, including electronic materials and surrogates of physical objects.
