Conclusions and next steps
• The new text platform allows the user to move freely around in various text from various sources,
adding/removing search criteria on the fly
• Still, through the “facets” the user can remain within a specific collection, for instance
• The test version will include two collections/editions
• The next one is planned to be ingested in August, based on the new price model
• We are still building the platform, - continous dialogue with stakeholders
