Description

Digital Library Pavia is the platform of the University of Pavia that hosts and manages the cultural multi-domain of libraries, museums and archives of the University and some local institutions. It houses different kinds of digital objects (ancient books, archival materials and museum objects, documentary material, periodicals, audio and video assets) and represents the evolution of an old digitization project that had involved, during the years 2003-2006, a substantial collection of volumes from Plinio Fraccaro's Library. Plinio Fraccaro was professor of Ancient History at the University of Pavia from 1915 till 1953 and Rector of the University. In 2018, after the abandonment of the previous project, the creation phase of Digital Library Pavia began with the support of DSpace-GLAM, the data model of 4Science.
