6. ”We managed to successfully keep the ENA alive and to attract new members” “We're happy to have achieved
progress in communicating Europeana as the main European community for digital transformation of the
cultural sector, with cross-national and cross-sectoral collaboration as it main characteristic. “
“We've realized that some of the major issues with the ENA were a lack of focus, and not taking on
responsibility”. “We've realized that it takes quite an effort to keep the ENA alive. “Accept that we move slowly
and understand that you have many hats on as an MC member: employee, elected representative, colleague,
representative of a sector.”
“In our role as members of the Council we have learnt that there are opportunities, challenges and
interesting times ahead.” “We have learnt that people from diverse institutions: libraries, archives and
museums, coming from so many countries and speaking so many different languages can work together In
harmony and cohesion.”
“We would like to advise you, as the new Council, to focus on what you can bring to the table. We advise you
to engage more profoundly in spreading the Europeana gospel and be active in what you are passionate
about.”
The previous Council has a message for you

The object of the Association is to support accomplishing of the joint aspiration of Europeana:
We transform the world with culture. We build on Europe’s rich cultural heritage and make it easier for
people to use for work, for learning or for fun. Our work contributes to an open, knowledgeable and
creative society.
The Association is the community that shapes Europeana. We believe in creative collaboration
and teamwork. We are committed to making, sharing, promoting and repurposing Europe’s
digital cultural heritage.
We endeavour to achieve this objective by:
★ using our individual expertise to encourage innovation and foster cross-border and cross-
domain collaboration between people from cultural heritage, creative, technology, education
and research areas;
★ developing, validating and implementing the standards and frameworks that improve access
and discovery;
★ promoting Europeana’s activities within professional networks;
★ participating in Europeana governance and strategy by electing 6 members for the
Governing Board of Europeana; and supporting and advising the Board regarding its policy
and business.
Aspiration of the ENA
12. SWOT of the ENA (2019)
Strengths:
★ Number of members (2300)
★ Crossdomain composition
★ Rooted in European core values
★ We have proven innovation in some areas (copyright,
impact)
★ Tech community as thought leaders
★ Connection to other networks
★ Democratic setup
★ Relationship with EF
★ Core of dedicated people
Weaknesses:
❏ Engagement of the MC
❏ Benefits of membership unclear
❏ Lack of continuity (follow-up) on previous results
❏ Not clear what ENA expects from its (new) members
❏ We overestimate our innovation in different areas
❏ Relationship with EF
❏ Heterogeneous composition (too loosely connected)
❏ No clear branding
Opportunities:
➢ Other funds for networking are available
➢ New community setup
➢ Bring EU-level cross-domain curation into equation
beside access
➢ Stronger connections with the EF and EC- strategies
➢ Innovative force of the network (e.g in relation to
research and Open Science)
➢ More inclusiveness, capacity building and thought
leadership
➢ Audience development approaches
Threats:
❖ Other communities/networks provide better/more
information
❖ EC diverts its attention to other areas/activities
❖ Lifecycle developments
❖ Identity politics
❖ Becoming too incrowdy
❖ Time constraints of members
13. → Relatively low-engagement of the MC in between meetings (W) can be improved with the new setup of
communities (O).
→ Because there is no clear branding of ENA (W), it is not always clear what ENA expects from its members (W),
and as their time is constrained (T), there is a danger of a lack of continuity and follow-up on previous results (W).
We could address these issues by finding additional funds (O), by getting inspired by other networks (O) and by
paying more attention to audience development approaches (O).
→ Unclear membership benefits (W) together with heterogeneous composition (W) and lifecycle developments (T)
could be addressed by bringing EU-level cross-domain curation into equation as a key value of the digital
transformation of cultural heritage institutions.
→ Stronger connections with the EF and EC/DCHE strategies (O) can contribute to more focus, engagement,
inclusiveness, capacity building (e.g. through trainings) and thought leadership (O) (although a close relationship
with EF can be considered both a weakness and a strength)
→ The ENA has a core of dedicated people (S) but it can start to feel too ‘incrowdy’ for others (T), making it
difficult for outsiders to get connected. Communities (O) need to find a balance between exclusiveness,
inclusiveness and becoming too heterogeneous.
→ The ENA can improve its innovation capacity building by reinforcing already existing thought leadership in
successful areas (Tech, copyright, impact) (S) and look for more opportunities in others (research, education) (O).

Evaluation of Europeana (by public consultation)
MC meeting 5-6 March 2019
The Hague
CC BY-SA
“Aims to provide evidence for, and support to, the
evaluation of Europeana and the assessment of
possibilities for its future development.”
“The study methodology has been designed to gather
and analyse relevant information to address the
evaluation questions relating to the relevance,
effectiveness, efficiency, coherence and EU added
value of Europeana. To address these questions, the
study used mixed methods for data gathering and
analysis, combining the characteristics of both
quantitative and qualitative studies.”
20. Evaluation of Europeana by public consultation
MC meeting 5-6 March 2019
The Hague
CC BY-SA
“Europeana Network Association has great
potential” (p.107)
“based on the public consultation analysis, 24%
of the responses indicated dissatisfaction with
their participation in ENA activities, particularly
highlighting that the respondents felt that their
contributions were not taken into account by
Europeana decision makers.” (p.108)
“This new Members Council provides a better
representation of aggregators and cultural
heritage institutions.” (p.107)
“The benchmark shows that Europeana is in
line with best practices when it comes to the
generation of networks and
ecosystems of cooperation and value
exchange.”
21. Evaluation of Europeana by public consultation
MC meeting 5-6 March 2019
The Hague
CC BY-SA
Europeana is relevant to EU needs and priorities, as it provides added value by creating a
network of experts and cultural heritage institutions, enables European cooperation, as
well as improves the availability and re-use of European cultural heritage across sectors
and across national borders.
Relevance:
Europeana is targeting a significant number of user profiles, whose motives for engaging with
Europeana are quite diverse. The diversity of users and their interests in Europeana creates a
challenge in maintaining a high quality of services for all user groups
Effectiveness:
The Europeana infrastructure faces a number of challenges and there are constraints in
relation to data input from partners. Additionally, from a technical point of view, there is
significant room for improvement in areas such as increased automatisation and semi-
automatic indexing combined with semantic networks.
Efficiency:
The evaluation results confirm that Europeana maintains overall internal coherence.
Europeana’s services and activities (e.g. creating a network of content providers, developing
tools for the provision of content, the definition of a common metadata standard and a
platform to access this content) are in line with its main objective to make European cultural
heritage content accessible through a single access point.
Coherence:
Europeana has played a significant role in the digital development of the cultural heritage
sector in Europe. In particular, the Europeana Network is seen as a relevant element for
the continuation of cross-border and pan-European collaboration among cultural
institutions, while contributing to international standardisation. The case study analysis
indicates that Europeana's efforts have been fundamental to enhancing cooperation and
standardisation activities across borders, with a common goal of increasing the use of
international standards for sharing digitised cultural material throughout Europe and beyond
EU Added Value:
22. Evaluation of Europeana by public consultation
MC meeting 5-6 March 2019
The Hague
CC BY-SA
Selection of issues relevant to ENA:
“Although a number of actions have been launched with data partners to improve data quality, the varying
quality and inconsistencies of metadata, as well as the lack of translated metadata, continue to affect the
findability of objects through searches on Europeana as well as the overall user experience.”
“Although two thirds of the public consultation respondents indicated satisfaction with various aspects of
Europeana content, the majority of responses to the open question on the same topic were
constructively negative. These answers pointed to issues related to geographical (underrepresented
countries) and thematic coverage, as well as the unsatisfactory quality of the content.”
“The level of multilingualism of the portal is another issue. Respondents pointed specifically to the lack of
translation of metadata and to inconsistencies in search results when searching in different languages.”
“Duplication of work and a lack of motivation is evident from some cultural heritage organisations that
follow a ‘publish and forget’ model especially if their contribution to Europeana was funded by a European
project.”
“There is a need for Europeana to further attract end-users and to improve the way how they are reached.
Services in particular needs to be adapted to the fast-technological changes and to the new modes of
communication.”
