The Cooperative Portal of the 19th century Croatia Historic Newspapers and Journals

The National and University Library in Zagreb developed a digital library system and a cooperative portal of digitised Croatian historic newspapers and journals (http://dnc.nsk.hr) from its own collection and from collections of other Croatian heritage institutions. The system enables metadata creation, ingestion and publishing of digital reproductions, browsing and searching of newspaper and journal issues, simple and advanced searches of full text journal articles. The added values are: enhanced availability of printed national heritage, creation of a cooperative database of all Croatian historic newspapers and journals, development of standardised and harmonised procedures for digitisation as well as coordination and rationalisation of digitisation efforts. The cooperation and coordination at the national level is made possible by cooperative input of data and images from all participating institutions (libraries, museums and archives) including serial collections’ description, information on participating institutions and their digitisation projects, bibliographic information, holdings data of original print serials, microfilms and digital reproductions, information on titles that are being digitised or planned for digitisation in heritage institutions in Croatia, etc. The Portal is the central point for search and access to digitised historic newspapers and journals and is a part of the national project of digitisation of archival, library and museum collections Croatian Cultural Heritage, financed by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Croatia.
