          Content
        
        
          Digital content lies at the heart of every knowledge value chain and, for that reason is a fundamental
        
        
          pillar of our activities. It includes not only high-quality digital content but also different types of data.
        
        
          With regard to digital content, we work to support the organisations producing, as open as possible,
        
        
          content for further dissemination and reuse, in order to maximise the value flows which result. For
        
        
          that purpose, we use e-infrastructures of high quality and a broad general scale which have been
        
        
          developed by using a series of national and European programmes.
        
        
          Our specific priorities in this core area concern
        
        
          • Providing support services for the deposit, documentation, safe preservation and dissemination

          international standards

          reuse, as well as the promotion of Greek cultural heritage
        
        
          • Highlighting our organisation as a pioneer in the sector of digital content for libraries and the
