PRESS RELEASE
European Commission steps up efforts to put Europe's memory 
on the Web via a "European Digital Library" (2 March 2006)The European
Commissions' plan to promote digital access to Europe's heritage is rapidly
taking shape. At least six million books, documents and other cultural works
will be made available to anyone with a Web connection through the European
Digital Library over the next five years. In order to boost European
digitisation efforts, the Commission will co-fund the creation of a
Europe-wide network of digitisation centres. The Commission will also
address, in a series of policy documents, the issue of the appropriate
framework for intellectual property rights protection in the context of
digital libraries.
