ENRICHING THE CONTENT PROVIDED BY CULTURAL CATALOGUES WITH DATA FROM INSTITUTIONAL REPOSITORIES
Keywords: Repository, Europeana, open access, research data, preservation
Abstract. Institutional repositories play a key role in universities and research centers for the preservation and dissemination of the knowledge generated or collected by these agents. Part of the information contained is related with Cultural Heritage and, therefore, it could be taken into account by thematic catalogues such as Europeana. In this paper, the opportunities and limitations of this connection are considered and presented by means of an ongoing case at the University of the Basque Country's institutional repository. In particular, we will deal with the information gathered about San Prudencio's Monastery (Clavijo, Spain), which includes a wide range of data from original datasets (photographs, pointclouds, coordinates, sketches and so on) up to finals results (reports, plans, 3D models, papers and so on).
