Did you log on to the new website Europeana before it crashed from more than ten million hits per hour? They say they hope to have it back up by mid-Dec. It sounds like an incredible resource!

Europeana, Europe's digital library, museum and archive, will re-open as soon as possible. We'll be bringing you digitised books, films, paintings, newspapers, sounds and archives from Europe's greatest collections.

Good luck ot them. I look forward to exploring!

Refresh

Never even heard of it till now - cheers, Kat. (Might it be an idea to change the thread title to something that gives a better idea of what it's about? The current one just reminds me of all those advertising lead-in lines you get bombarded with!)

It would be interesting to hear from anyone who has actually managed to access this site.
