EuropeanaConnect Audio-Network Starter Kit

The Audio Aggregation Platform Starter Kit ( http://www.dismarc.org/info/pdf/EuropeanaConnect_Starter_Kit.pdf) delivers an overview of the AAP platform and gives details of administration issues necessary to upload content. It also provides an assignment document which confirms that the content provider authorises upload of content to both the EuropeanaConnect/DISMARC Audio Aggregation Platform and to Europeana.

EuropeanaConnect/DISMARC Audio Aggregation Platform (AAP)

The DISMARC-EuropeanaConnect Audio Aggregation Platform (AAP, http://www.dismarc.eu) prepares and delivers audio to Europeana, and offers a content owner the possibility of managing his/her content. Content can be enriched by attaching various vocabularies. The AAP is supported by a help Wiki, and provides content owners with technical support including tools for creating collection descriptions, tools for attaching appropriate IPR license to content and tools for attaching content to Europeana themes. The platform's data is harvested by Europeana at regular intervals.

Audio Exhibition

The Audio Exhibition presents content from various EuropeanaConnect partners as a thematic virtual exhibition. The selected topic is 'Weddings in Eastern Europe' and contains avariety of text, graphics, images, audio and video. The exhibition is based on a re-useable CMS template.
