Introduction

E-corpus makes known, catalogs, circulates and offers access to many millions of digital documents of all types: texts as well as iconographic heritage and cultural objects. Its interface is available in several languages.
The various partners — principally libraires, museums or archives — deposit their content on this basis.
The description of the documents is hierarchical with metadata in the XML-EAD format, which can then be converted into other formats, notably into Dublin Core. An OAI-PMH archive permits interoperability with other platforms, Gallica.
