Archives Portal Europe

Marta Musso (PR&Communication Officer APEF)

For historians, archival research is the most exciting and fun part of the job, but also the most dangerous and potentially stressful. The relation with primary sources is always very complicated; however, when the material cannot be found, or it is scattered around the world in a multitude of institutions, a research project can be abandoned altogether, due to lack of time or travel resources – especially at a time of cuts. 

Archives Portal Europe, come dice il nome, è un nuovo portale degli archivi europei, uno strumento digitale che permette di ricercare contemporaneamente in centinaia (e presto migliaia) di archivi in Europa semplicemente visitando il sito.
