Europeana Webinar: Datasheets for Cultural Heritage Datasets

There is a growing need in the cultural heritage sector to address the question of how to create documentation for datasets. Datasheets offer one way to meet this need. What structure and fields a datasheet should have to support the goals of those interested in reusing the datasets, particularly with computational approaches?

Europeana is organising a webinar on Datasheets for Cultural Heritage Datasets see: https://pro.europeana.eu/event/datasheets-for-digital-cultural-heritage 

Time: Wednesday 9th April at 14:00 - 16:00 CEST

This webinar will see the Europeana Working Group on datasheets for digital cultural heritage share the new template for datasheets and upcoming developments.

The webinar is free, but registration is needed: https://pretix.eu/Europeana-Foundation/datasheetsfordch/
