Flandrica.be

A page of a manuscript available through Flandrica.be

Flandrica.be (launched 2011) is a web portal that links the online repositories of the Flanders Heritage Library consortium in partnership with the libraries of the Antwerp Museum for Diamonds, Jewellery and Silver and the Plantin-Moretus Museum. It showcases culturally significant or aesthetically pleasing items (manuscripts, printed books, periodicals and engravings) produced in or about what is now the Flemish Region of Belgium.[1] It is funded by the Flemish Community and by the libraries themselves. Material included in Flandrica is also made available through the EU web portal for cultural heritage, Europeana.[2]
