Europeana Labs

Europeana Labs Project Brief

Bring together the

application gallery,

technical services,

case studies, example

code and content for

experimentation

needed by creative re-

use projects

Europeana Labs Brand Proposition

“Europeana Labs is a playground for

remixing and using your cultural and

scientific heritage. It is both an online

space and a network of real-world

places for inspiration, innovation and

sharing.”

Europeana Labs Users

The developer inspired to or paid to develop

based on our API, code and labs hardware.

The creative industry professional or entrepreneur

with a commercial motivation to remix or republish

heritage, or to do so at scale.

The designer-developer or multi-disciplinary

teams who want to do both of the above.

What do we want people to do?

We want people to discover and be inspired by

our open collections and find them easy to re-

use, remix or republish.

We want people to share the tools, services

and code that they create with others.

If they are so inspired, we would like them to

join co-creation and other collaborative

activities.
