Europeana Sounds Training Workshops

The MINT team frequently organises training workshops to help Cultural Heritage institutions and professionals broaden their knowledge on the management,
aggregation and publication of digital content. This page contains training and reference materials that have been developed and used by a wide
range of EC-funded projects that use the MINT tool.

Here is a link to a detailed presentation of the MINT tool, including images and exercises, we adapted for the Europeana Sounds consortium: MINT-Training_material_for_Europeana_Sounds.pdf

The next training workshop on the MINT tool will take place at the National Technical University of Athens, on October 23d-24th, 2014.
It has been organised for the Europeana Sounds project and it will be the first out of three training workshops on the metadata ingestion and enrichment tasks.

Below you can find the agenda of this workshop and here you can find the related logistics information: EuropeanaSounds_meeting_athens_logistics.pdf
