Att bibliotekens intresse för fria e-resurser är närmast obefintligt så
kanske det ungerska arkivet och databasen för fria tidskrifter
skulle kunna vara ett exempel på vad man kan och bör skapa något liknande
även här i landet över våra fria e-tidskrifter och serier

The Electronic Periodicals Archive & Database (EPA) is the initiative of
the Hungarian Electronic Library (MEK) aimed at creating a bibliographic
database and register of the Hungarian e-periodicals and providing hosting
services to certain ongoing resources.
The main task of the EPA-services is to produce and maintain a centralized,
well-organized and searchable database of the metadata and access
information of the Hungarian e-journals, and to promote the publication and
distribution of these resources, with technical support and good practice
standards, thus providing better access to this type of content.
The development of the "Electronic Periodical Archive" started in 2003,
first with the foundations of the host service stored on the MEK-server.
Most items of the collection have their own web sites as well, but some of
them can be found exclusively in the EPA Archive. The advantages of the
hosting in the EPA services are stable access, uniform technical standards
and design principles. Further, full-text search has been successfully
enabled in the majority of the HTML- and PDF-format materials.
The archive is rapidly growing with new acquisitions, as well as with the
regular updates of resources that are already part of the collection.
Vem tar ansvar för att skapa ett svenskt EPA?
