In 2021, the Europeana Research Grants Programme awarded funding for innovative projects exploring crowdsourcing and research. Hear about a pilot project which explored decolonialsing a Swedish database for museum collections.
In our ‘Professionals in Focus’ series, we speak to our Councillors about their roles, working lives and plans for their time on the Members Council. This month, Maria Engberg, Senior Lecturer at Malmö University, discusses building an interdisciplinary research environment and her enduring fascination with digital literature.
Larissa Borck of the Swedish National Heritage Board interviews Anders Lindeberg-Lindvet, curator at the Tekniska museet, to talk about the importance of openly-licensed content and contributing to Europeana’s Industrial Heritage collection and Europe at Work season.
Europeana’s current season, Europe at Work, invites people to share stories about working lives past and present. In this post, we offer ideas and inspiration on how cultural heritage institutions can use social media to engage audiences with the season and showcase their own material.
The Europeana Common Culture project aims to improve the content from Europeana’s national aggregators. The Swedish National Heritage Board - a Common Culture project partner - discusses their open-access webinar series, ‘Open GLAM now!’.
This is the second part of our reporting on the recent events for all things Wikimedia – the annual Wikimania conference, held this year in Stockholm – where Europeana held several associated events. Following the main conference, Europeana convened the inaugural meeting of National Libraries (and equivalent consortium organisations) who are currently working directly with Wikidata and its underlying software Wikibase. This event was organised by our Wikimedia liaison Liam Wyatt and hosted by our partners the National Library of Sweden. Liam updates us here on the meeting content.
