Activities and Outcomes. The Best Practice Network (BPN) programme of work is organised to deliver the project objectives. WP1 (Aggregation) will aggregate more than 545,000 new sound items and 225,000 supporting items into Europeana, using ontologies and metadata profiles dedicated to time-based media. WP2 (Enrichment and participation) will provide tools for metatagging and contextualisation using a combination of semantic web technologies and crowdsourcing. It will collaborate with Wikimedia chapters and explore mechanisms for linking between collections. The results will add meaningful contextual knowledge to 2m items in Europeana’s audio and related collections. WP3 (Licensing guidelines) will identify approaches for access to out-of-commerce and domain- constrained audio. It will initiate dialogue with rights holders and deliver recommendations for improving access and re-use to at least 1.5m additional audio tracks held by Consortium partners. WP4 (Channels development) will develop and deploy a mechanism for user-configured channels for enhanced access to the Europeana collections with annotation/discovery tools, multilingual browse and search, plus APIs or ‘connection kits’ for federating discovery and delivery over third-party platforms. WP5 (Technical infrastructure) will extend the Europeana aggregation and access infrastructure to support the processing of time-based and multilingual metadata and provide access to all the components being developed in WP2 and WP4. WP6 (Dissemination and networking) will ensure dissemination of information about the projects, especially through professional and end-user virtual communities and ‘sound (re)discovery’ events. There will be mid-project and end-project conferences for actors throughout the audio-media value chain with anticipated audiences of 200 potential participators in the Best Practice Network. WP7 (Project management and sustainability) will co-ordinate the project activities and ensure cohesiveness between and timely delivery of the various strands. Business models for sustainability will be developed including potential of the International Association of Sound and Audiovisual Archives to be the facilitator of long-term viability. Consortium The Consortium has 24 partners from 12 countries selected for their content, technical, delivery and impact expertise. The core group of six are all active contributors to initiatives such as Europeana Creative and EUScreenXL and includes the Europeana Foundation (...

Activities and Outcomes. The range of activities to be deployed through the inter‐related work packages of Europeana Awareness include: a rolling programme of PR and advocacy campaigns that will target every Member State; a major effort to develop user engagement through thematic campaigns to encourage user content contributions; detailed and concerted work to energise new partnerships in key areas of user interest such as genealogy and local history through more effective engagement with grassroots communities via local archives and public libraries; and new partnerships with both public and commercial service providers in tourism and broadcasting. An intensive effort to embed the new Licensing Framework and raise awareness of IPR issues and develop approaches to them will underlie and inform all this work.
Activities and Outcomes. Europeana Cloud has three key activities - ingesting content for users, creating the cloud to manage that content, and letting researchers discover and use that content. In dealing with content and metadata, it is a vital project for the European network of content providers and aggregators. Ingest Content for Users. For a targeted set of users - humanities and social science scholars - access to digitised content is key. This project thus assembles a rich range of new content providers (universities, archives, publishers, data centres) to provide valuable, research-focused content. Existing Europeana partners will also be approached for content, further enriching the source material available for non-commercial use. This content (full-text, datasets, monographs etc.) will be presented via a new Europeana Research platform, offering scholars a vibrant source of research material and a much closer connection with Europeana. Managing the Content. For the Europeana Network of aggregators and content providers, there is a pressing need to create an infrastructure that sustains their work. The current system of dispersed silos of aggregators has economic inefficiencies that hinder the effectiveness of Europeana. The development of Europeana Cloud offers significant potential for innovation - removing duplication of work, permitting easy sharing of open data and, crucially, reducing the time and costs of aggregating Europe’s digitised content. The relevant activity in this project will therefore be technical, in creating a working instance of this cloud to ingest this new content, but also strategic. It will negotiate the legal and economic challenges and ensure consensus within the broader Europeana Network of aggregators and content providers.

Activities and Outcomes. The Thematic Network together with the proposed Joint Action will focus on the four thematic areas stated in the Council Conclusions. In concrete this means:
Activities and Outcomes. The 23 project partners include some of the most outstanding natural history museums and botanical gardens in Europe and almost all will function as content providers. Many of these institutions also represent nodes in the GBIF network. As a result, they have a strong background in biodiversity informatics and will be able to provide the necessary technology for implementation. The project will connect EUROPEANA to the Global Biodiversity Information Facility GBIF, a steadily growing content provision framework that has been established by a resolution of OECD science ministers and subsequent signing of a Memorandum of Understanding by at present 54 countries (19 of them European) and 42 international organisations. The network comprises more than 300 data providers and offers open access to more than 200 million data records. The OpenUp! project partners that are European natural history collection institutions have an established connection to the GBIF network, which will ensure future sustainability and steady growth of content provision to EUROPEANA after the end of the project. These public museums and botanical gardens will support the work package focussing on the dissemination of EUROPEANA as the European portal of interest within communities related to biodiversity. With a work package dedicated to the extension of the provider community, OpenUp! will also actively encourage content holders beyond the project consortium to join the scheme (the total number of natural history collections in the EU is estimated to exceed 4000 institutions). Apart from the value of the content itself, unifying content provision through inclusion in EUROPEANA presents European added value in three respects: (i) Objects in European natural history collections are by no means restricted to national territories, they originate from expeditions and explorations all over the world. A unified approach, e.g. to metadata provision, therefore creates significant synergies as compared to a nationally
