Progress towards Europeana in the UK
Nick Poole, Chief Executive, Collections Trust
The UK cultural sector is committed to delivering
ubiquitous public access to and engagement with cultural
heritage via the Web

impact and work towards sustainability (economic, political
and social)

exposing digital assets from museums, archives and
libraries in the UK
