The DISMARC project
The DISMARC project is an EU-funded initiative to encourage and support the interoperability of music related data. The majority of music archives throughout Europe do not dispose of publicly available access points to their catalogues and if they do, they often focus individually on providing resource discovery facilities to their own network or community only.
DISMARC will establish a gateway to freely available audio-content which will increase the visibility of the individual collections and make the content discoverable to a wider audience. The project offers music archives the opportunity to submit music collections for aggregation in the DISMARC repository via harvesting of the metadata records associated with the resources.
