Dear all goodmorning and my best wishes for a happy 2007. Rhea's message had woke me up concerning my "obligation" coming out from Gennadious meeting on December, on puting together all greek inititatives on providing greek digital content on web or elsewhere. As a matter of fact I had already done the most of the job a couple of weeks ago but as usually I postponed posting it to the list. Well now here it is my initial list with all resources I could find. Resources are presented in an excel table with usefull data (url, owner, type, format, access info etc). As I said above this must be considered only as a first step towards a full inventory of all greek digital initiatives. As it came out of the Genadious meeting we should create a registry for that reason that it would be also usefull to us here in Greece to avoid doing the same job more than once. In that sense my next step consists of the following: - gather more data about new projects coming out this next period (and there will be a lot as major digitization projects funded by the Information Society Program will be presented). If anyone knows a project I haven't included in the list just name it! - concerning collections and databases, to gather data about the titles that are digitized and/or indexed (I already have the most of this data, but somehow I have to orginize it... see next point). Anyway I can always just put in an excel table and later on we can import all this data into a nice database system. - to work on the stuctrure of such a registry: what information do we need to know for every resource and to what level. Any ideas and feedback will be wellcome. Of course this will take some time and a lot of cooperation and understanding between us. We'll see. I hope all these will be usefull to somebody. I am waiting for your feedback Sincerely Panos Georgiou Library & Information Service University of Patras tel: + 00 2610 969623 e-mail: panos(a)lis.upatras.gr

Dear Panos, Please accept my sincere thanks for taking the time to follow up on this! I know this document will be of great interest to my faculty and patrons. Rebecka, would it be possible for you to post this document to the CoHSL web site? This is a great start and, please, as Panos requests, offer suggestions/feedback to the list. Once it is posted on the CoHSL site, perhaps we should inform the MGSA listserv about it? Once again, Panos, thank you! Rhea At 05:39 AM 1/18/2007, you wrote:

Thanks to Panos for his excellent list. now available at http://www.princeton.edu/~rlindau/Panos%20Georgiou.xls with a link from the website at http://www.princeton.edu/~rlindau/CoHSL.htm Not in that list, but no doubt of interest to many is Pergamos (http://pergamos.lib.uoa.gr/dl/index) "... an integrated Digital Library System that offers a uniform platform for managing, documenting, preserving and publishing heterogeneous digital collections. It has been developed by the Libraries Computer Center team of the University of Athens. Currently, Pergamos hosts the digital collection of the Historical Archive of the University of Athens, while four additional collections are under development (Folklore Collection, Papyri Collection, Theatrical Collection and Medical Images Collection). By the end of 2007, Pergamos will be hosting 11 collections of the University of Athens." It is built on FEDORA -Chuck Jones- ----- Original Message ----- From: Panos Georgiou To: cohsl-list(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu Sent: Thursday, January 18, 2007 12:39 PM Subject: [Cohsl-list] Greek Resources on the Web Dear all goodmorning and my best wishes for a happy 2007.

Thanks Chuck! Please use the simpler URL http://www.cohsl.net/ which I'm funding in order for you not to have to use the cumbersome address on my server space. While at the site, in addition to checking out Panos's list, please view the list of digital resources under the link "Digital Projects." It contains many of the resources on that list, though not all. You might also want to check out Karen's photo album from the Athens meeting on the "About CoHSL" page at the end of the text.
