After ten years of continuous growth and development, we will launch the new Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek in the spring of 2023 and present it to a wide audience as a place for the transmission of digital cultural heritage. On 08 May 2023, the results of the project "Nutzerorientierte Neustrukturierung der Deutschen Digitalen Bibliothek“ (User-oriented Restructuring of the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek"), which was funded by the Commissioner for Culture and Media (BKM) as part of the funding program NEUSTART KULTUR, will be presented in the James-Simon-Galerie in Berlin.
