The project
ELEONET has been financed in 2005 by the European Commission in the framework of the eTEN programme, as a project of common interest in the field of trans-European telecommunications networks.
The main expected outcome of the project is a technological system, based on an appropriate DOI application profile interoperable with the existing standards so as to facilitate the exchange of educational content within the eLearning value chain at European level.
Thanks to the DOI resolution system ELEONET will intermediate between different Learning Objects metadata repositories making digital resources directly accessible wherever they are stored.
ELEONET represents the first significant effort for an effective cooperation among different DOI Registration Agencies, being the three major DOI European Agencies represented within the consortium: mEDRA (through its funding partners AIE and Cineca), Nielsen BookData and TIB
(through L3S research centre).
The project started on January 2006 and will last 18 months, closing at the end of June 2007 with the release of the final version of the system.
