A quiet writing hour with art and culture

12 June, 11:00-12:00 CEST, online

Join for an hour of quiet writing. No inspiration? No problem. We will display artworks and cultural heritage items from Europeana.eu on screen so just look up, see how you respond and free-write. The visual will change, without fanfare, every 10-15 minutes – you can use it, or just carry on with your own project.

Introduction to collections, audiences and stories on Europeana.eu

This training course, run as part of Europeana Academy, focuses on using and telling stories with the collections on Europeana.eu. The course will help you to understand how to find collections on Europeana.eu, how the website brings together collections from institutions across Europe, and how you can use these collections to help you reach a range of different audiences. 

At the end of the course you will understand how to find specific collections on Europeana.eu, and will have created a gallery to share on Europeana.eu or on social media.

How to tell great stories and write for Europeana.eu

This training course, run as part of Europeana Academy, focuses on creating editorial for Europeana.eu and applying our storytelling tips to sharing digital cultural heritage collections with a variety of audiences. 

This course introduces why we think of Europeana’s editorial as storytelling, and helps you to understand what to consider when creating your own blog, such as structure, tone of voice and editorial guidelines. At the end you will be ready to submit your own blog idea to Europeana or to create your own stories for publication elsewhere.

Copyright office hours on the Open Heritage Statement

9 July, 14:00-15:00 CEST, online 

Join the Europeana Copyright Community for an office hours session on The Open Heritage Statement; a collective response to an international policy gap that currently leaves barriers to equitable access to public domain heritage unaddressed, and thus entire communities out of touch with their heritage. 

In this session, we will present the Statement, explain its background and how it came about, and set the scene for what needs to happen next. Copyright office hours are informal sessions for members of the community to share their insights, questions and concerns with other participants.

Introduction to Europeana APIs

17 August, 10:00-11:30 CEST, online

This course provides an in-depth overview of the Europeana APIs, the differences between the various APIs, their features, and how you can use them.
