ATHENA, presented as a Network of Best Practice within the eContentplus Programme, takes its origins from the existing MINERVA network. 

ATHENA is bringing together relevant stakeholders and content owners from museums and other cultural institutions all over Europe and evaluate and integrate specific tools, based on a common agreed set of standards and guidelines to create harmonised access to their content.

ATHENA is contributing in the content provision to Europeana.

ATHENA BOOKLETS

I like the new booklets very much. They are as useful as the other publications from Athena (Minerva, MICHAEL etc.) [Irene Hyna, MUKK, Austria]
