Join the Europeana Research Community café, where guest speaker James Baker (Director of Digital Humanities, University of Southampton) will encourage attendees to think about the legacies of catalogue descriptions, data quality and ethics.

The Europeana Research Community has 2,400 members who work in the cultural heritage sector, higher education and research. There is a lot of potential in community members sharing experiences, new ideas, project results and tips from across Europe and beyond. To foster interaction between members and encourage more people to join the Community, the Research Community Steering Group is delighted to organise the Europeana Research Community Cafés. At these informal events, a guest speaker will introduce some themes for each Café, with a common thread around the opportunities that digitised and born digital cultural heritage bring to research and higher education. Join and bring your voice to a wide community of professionals. The Europeana Research Community cafés are open to everyone and will not be recorded.
