The Flemish Heritage Libraries and meemoo, in collaboration with collection management organizations, are creating a comprehensive Flemish initiative for the digitization, accessibility, and preservation of at-risk Flemish newspaper archives. This initiative aims to enhance and widen the access to existing digital newspaper collections for audiences both within Flanders and internationally, facilitated through a central, high-performance access point. By 2024, the project anticipates establishing a robust infrastructure capable of supporting large-scale newspaper digitization efforts, ensuring the long-term preservation and accessibility of this valuable cultural heritage.
