Together with the project Europeana Creative and Barcelona Cultura we’re co-organising a workshop this Wednesday in Barcelona on using Europeana content and the Europeana API. We hope workshops like this will enable and promote greater re-use of cultural heritage resources by creative industries.

Europeana is a platform providing access to more than 30 million digitised cultural heritage objects from Europe’s libraries, museums, archives and audiovisual collections, This hands on workshop will demonstrate how to use the Europeana API and include it into web applications.

We realise it is late notice to join us in Barcelona but the workshop will also be web streamed meaning you can watch wherever you are in the world.

Location: Dissney HUB Barcelona. Plaça de les Glòries Catalanes, 37 08018 Barcelona
Time & Date: 17.00 – 20.00 on Wednesday the 16th of July (CET)
Registrations:  here (only necessary if attending in person and not for the webinar)
Webinar link if not attending in person: here or belowIn addition to this workshop we’re also co-organising a series of app challenges encouraging entrepreneurs & developers to re-use Europe’s digitized cultural heritage from Europeana in innovative and creative ways! Our second Challenges are to create applications that reuse Europeana content in the themes of Tourism or Social Networks. The best ideas will receive a tailor made Incubation Support Package, helping to bring your product idea successfully to the market! Read more about the Challenges and Pilots here or go straight and submit your application.
