The Europeana Libraries project focuses on enhancing the searchability of library data by aligning it with the Europeana Data Model (EDM). Through meticulous work with UNIMARC data and understanding the EDM, the project aims to improve data quality, maintain interoperability with Europeana, and enhance the discoverability of library content.
