A Collaborative Nationwide Platform, a Distributed Modular Environment
Today, the amount of publications created in all fields of culture is rapidly growing to a never seen extent. What is even a bigger challenge, the amount of machine-generated and unstructured data is growing at a rate more than exponential. If we want to face up to the challenge of preserving some of these data for long term, and make it available for the wide public in a meaningful context, we need to create new ways of cooperation when selecting, structuring and processing data.
This is why the National Széchényi Library took a leading role in defining a cooperative and distributed nationwide library platform and is developing a self-hosted cloud-based environment. Our library is committed to participating in the FOLIO (The Future of Libraries is Open) community www.folio.org
The new requirements inevitably lead to a completely new data exchange and data sharing, a new cataloguing model, a cooperation platform and framework enabling more flexible workflows in data processing and opening up the possibility of cooperation for a much wider audience: citizens, scientists, and institutions.
Modules are exchangeable, can be used in parallel – the preferred solution is microservices.

FRBR as data model, RDA as cataloguing standard, BIBFRAME2 as data exchange format.
Private and shared data between participants.
