While welcoming the opening and development of /Europeana/, MEPs deeply
regret the unevenness of Member State contributions. They urge
governments and cultural institutions to co-operate closely in speeding
up digitisation, and "not to restrict availability to the territory of
their country". They also urge them to provide more audio and video
material, "paying special attention to those works which deteriorate
easily". MEPs propose a funding and advertising campaign entitled "Join
/Europeana/".
The report urges the Commission and Member States "to take all necessary
steps to avoid a knowledge gap between Europe and non-EU countries", so
as to make /Europeana/ "one of the main reference points for education
and research purposes". The committee also recommends creating a
separate on-line space, within /Europeana/, where users can create content.
