This digital archive was launched on the 100th anniversary of the First World War. Featuring contributions from ten national libraries and twenty film archives, there are 500,000 digital objects here, with resources from three big European projects, each dealing with different materials relating to World War One. The site collates material from Stories From the Public, Europeana Collections 1914 - 1918 and The European Film Gateway 1914 projects, as well as including additional items from New Zealand, Australia and America.
The British Library, who have contributed to this project, have created their own World War One educational resource, designed for secondary school and FE teachers and students. This includes 500 newly digitised resources from Europeana 1914-1918, accompanied by newly-commissioned articles by historians as well as teachers’ notes.
