Description
HOPE networks the digital collections of European institutions in social history and the history of the labour movement.
The HOPE proposal brings together a partnership of European social history instutions aiming to improve access to their highly significant but presently scattered digital collections of over 3 million objects. The project proposes to achieve this by promoting the adoption of standards and best practices for digital libraries amongst its partners and by ensuring that the metadata and the content become available through Europeana. HOPE will complement Europeana's collections with a wealth of content on the social history and the history of the labour movement, including intellectual and material evidence of struggle and emancipation in written records, private papers, photographs, banners, posters, speech recordings and film.
