Access


Research, participation, and value creation

Digital Access and Participation
We do not understand digital access as a technical endpoint, but as a starting point for use, visibility, and relevance. The focus is on long-term value.

We build on existing, functioning structures instead of creating new, rigid systems. Digital holdings are seamlessly integrated into established environments such as websites, content management systems, or collection databases.In close collaboration with you, we develop digital access solutions that reflect your institutional identity and specifically support the forms of use you wish to encourage. You receive a tailored solution — not a generic template.

Our work is grounded in a deep understanding of structure and context. Through clearly modeled data, relationships, and contextual frameworks, our solutions remain compatible with other platforms and ecosystems. Our systems provide RESTful APIs for interoperable data integration, enabling controlled and sustainable data exchange. Interfaces and data structures can connect seamlessly with environments such as Wikidata, Europeana, and IIIF-based viewers.

The result is not a closed platform, but a coherent and sustainable digital presence that remains open, adaptable, and future-proof.

Consulting & Professional Development

We provide expert guidance in the evaluation of products, partners, and workflows—from the development of digital strategies and the analysis of existing systems to the planning of long-term preservation.
We support capacity building through consulting and training, including academic continuing education formats in collaboration with the University of Basel.
