How many digital objects are available through Europeana and where do
they come from?

The Europeana prototype gives direct access to 7 million digitised items
from museums, libraries, audiovisual and other archives across Europe.
Over 1,000 cultural organisations from across Europe have provided
material to Europeana. The digitised objects come from all 27 EU
countries, although for some of them content is very limited at this stage.

Lite märkligt är att Danmark hamnar bland dom tio länder på slutet som

Norden.

Inte obegripligt om man ser historiskt på det. Norrmän vet vad det
nationella kulturarvet är värt efter danska, svenska och tyska occupationer.
