Monguz Ltd. is a Hungarian company that develops software for libraries and museums. It has over 200 partners in Hungary, Romania, and Slovakia. Monguz participates in Europeana by aggregating content from Hungarian institutions for Europeana. The Hungarian government is launching a new initiative called MaNDA (Hungarian National Digital Archive) to standardize metadata and contribute more Hungarian content to Europeana between 2011-2014. MaNDA will establish new aggregators, digitize additional collections beyond the public domain, and harvest content from neighboring countries.
