Dear colleagues,

the new issue of the e-journal Cultivate Interactive includes an article
about CELIP. However, there is nothing you would not know...

But there are more news:
- Concha Fernandez de la Puente has left the Cultural Heritage
Applications unit
- in her last Cultivate column she gives a good overview to the present
culture projects and financing possibilities of the European Commission
- there is a nice story about library architecture,
- and more.

So, use a little time to check the Cultivate Interactive:
