featIn the framework of EuropeanaPhotography, an on-line support service and a blog was recently implemented by University of Patras, developed according to the partner’s needs and now available for anyone interested or in need for a specialized support.

In facts, discussions about IPR in EuropeanaPhotography so far went through an IPR dedicated mailing list, which is restricted to the project’s members. The on-line support service is instead open to everybody and surely this website will become in a short time a benchmark for IPR issues for the whole community.

The support service is composed different resources:
