Read about Europeana from the US perspective

In her article, Ricky Erway of OCLC (Online Computer Library Center) provides a detailed and highly insightful outsider's view on the Europeana project. Erway looks at Europeana from many vantage points: mandate and funding; branding and public relations; learning from others; aggregation; cooperation; content; rights; metadata; technology; access; user feedback; and sustainability - offering valuable advice for the Europeana community in doing so. Erway's observations were originally presented during the LIBER/EBLIDA digitisation workshop in October and have now been published in the recent edition of LIBER Quarterly, the Journal of European Research Libraries.
