Cultural heritage embraces resources inherited from the past and offers a great variety of opportunities to the present: monuments, sites and traditions, but also visual arts, cinema, TV and radio archives.
In this framework, the Media of the Euro-Mediterranean region – both traditional and new ones – have to play their role, particularly given the challenges that such issue implies in terms of content production, audiovisual documents preservation and impact of the digital transition as a tool for the safeguard and enhancement of our common heritage.

Building The European Digital Library - An Insider’s Point of View Olaf Janssen
In December 2004 Google announced its plans to digitise and publish millions of books from 5 prestigious Anglo-American academic libraries by the year 2015. Initiated by French fears that Google's initiative could create a bias towards Anglo-American language and culture, Europe quickly united to mobilise funds for the digitisation, preservation and accessibility of European cultural heritage and the creation of a European Digital Library, including 6M digital works from libraries, muse-ums and archives by 2010.
Today The European Library (TEL) is a multilingual portal offering integrated access to the tens of millions of resources of Europe's national libraries. It offers free federated searching and delivers digital objects - some free, some priced.
The EU stressed that the European Digital Library should not be constructed from scratch, but build on existing initia-tives such as TEL, because TEL has a long history of successfully implementing and using some of the vital ingredients for the European Digital Library. These include A) internal & external collaboration and cooperative organisational networks, B) a technological platform based on creating, maintaining and conforming to common standards in i) data harvesting and ac-cess protocols, ii) metadata and iii) collection descriptions and C) multilingual access.
The reader will 1) learn what it takes to build a pan-European Digital Library, 2) find out about the history and future of this project and C) discover that this a win-win-win project: for its users, for its builders, and for world knowledge.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

onto the beaches of the civilized world. This
is a tidal wave of unrelated, growing data
formed in bits and bytes, coming in an
unorganized, uncontrolled, incoherent
cacophony of foam…. we see graphic
designers and government officials, all
getting their shoes wet and slowly
submerging in the dense trough of stuff….
they walk stupidly into the water, smiling—a
false smile of confidence and control.
The tsunami is a wall of data—data
produced at a greater and greater speed …
in amounts that double, it seems, with each
sunset ....
