Interviews with Dutch APE institution managers
On the 18th of March 2013 Wim van Dongen, APEx country manager for The Netherlands, organised a first 'hands-on' workshop to get Dutch institution managers acquainted with the Archives Portal Europe's Dashboard using the Content Checker. Afterwards he handed them over their Dashboard accounts on the Archives Portal Europe's production environment, where they started to upload and manage their own content.
In July 2013 Ivo Zandhuis, a Dutch independant consultant for digital access to cultural heritage information, conducted a series of interviews with the first active Dutch APE institution managers, asking them about their experiences, which were very positive. He summarised these interviews in an article in "Archievenblad", the monthly magazine of the Dutch KVAN (Koninklijke Vereniging van Archivarissen in Nederland), the Royal Association of Archivists in The Netherlands:
