ELTE-publications return home

Abstract

The researchers at the Eötvös Loránd University produce a significant amount of publications. Despite this fact the upload of their records to a database began in 2010 only. The experience has shown that, paradoxically, the only way to build an ELTE database is to contribute records more effectively to other – international and national – databases. Decision makers, librarians, information technology experts, co-authors of publications, universities, research institutes and libraries are required to work together on the registration of the publications of Hungarian research institutes, and within that the publications of ELTE. In addition, ELTE’s local priority is to manage its digital knowledge assets over the long term, within the framework of digital preservation. It also became clear that librarians can play an important role in this process because they have the answers to many challenges of the new digital age.
