ECLAP, the e-Library of performing arts
Connecting stages
What ECLAP is
Performing Arts are one of the great pillars of the European culture. There is a rich heritage of film collections, video and audio tapes, images, sketches, and notes in the field of performing arts. Many of them are scattered about various archives in Europe, forming an invaluable, but hitherto largely untapped, repository of knowledge.
ECLAP, the European Collected Library of Artistic Performance, is the new e-library for all performing arts in Europe, funded by the European Commission. For the first time, the collections of the most important European performing-arts institutions and archives are available online on ECLAP and through Europeana, the European digital library.
ECLAP also provides innovative and unique solutions and tools to help performing-arts institutions manage and make accessible their collections, and enter the digital Europe.
The ECLAP approach
ECLAP creates a centralized e-library of performing arts, and contributes to Europeanawith its collected records. With its state-of-the-art technologies, it offers users and content providers, easy-to-use and multilingual tools to upload, search, play, annotate, enrich and contextualize content.
ECLAP is a social network: the multilingual portal and its extensive functionalities allow users to create discussion groups, to meet colleagues and to network.
ECLAP is also a Best Practice Network, with three Working Groups providing guidelines covering performing art key areas, such as theatrical education and training, IPR and business models for contents or tools for digital libraries.
The overall aims are to promote the rich European culture and to improve learning and research in the field of performing arts.
