New European Library portal goes live



The European Library's new portal has gone live, with this video showcasing its best features.
Designed to meet the needs of the research community worldwide, you can now cross-search nearly 10 million digital items from 48 national and research libraries across Europe.
We’ve bloggedbeforeabout the Wellcome Library’s contributions to Europeana Libraries. We make our material available in the European Library through the Europeana Libraries project. In fact, our collections make an appearance in the new video at 1m 10s, Orthopaedic exercises for curvature of the spine, from Wellcome Film, and at 1m 26s, Engraving of a flea (from Micrographia), from Wellcome Images.
