EIGE’s Resource and Documentation Centre enters a new era

Published By Europa [English], Fri, Jun 17, 2022 5:40 AM


EIGE’s Resources and Documentation Centre (RDC) is undergoing a transformation to better address the needs of its users. After more than eleven successful years, the Resource and Documentation Centre will further develop its knowledge management dimensions.

For EIGE’s library, this transformation means that EIGE will donate a large number of books from its collection to Vilnius University library. Resources are now available to a wider audience than ever before, giving the public a chance to learn more about gender equality.

Our online catalogue will move to collaboration with other European projects. This means moving on from metadata searches in EIGE’s website. Investigation is ongoing for EIGE to participate in as a contributor of gender equality knowledge to projects with a similar purpose. Collections from 19 libraries and documentation centres across Europe are still accessible online through our online portal, with more than 800,000 resources available.

EIGE would like to thank the 19 RDC partners who shared the resources for their commitment and contributions to the project:
