Virtual Collection Registry
A service that allows researchers to create their own citable digital bookmarks. A virtual collection is a coherent set of links to digital objects (e.g. annotated text, video) that can be easily created, accessed and cited. The links can originate from different archives, hence the term virtual.
CLARIN provides a registry where scholars can create and publish their virtual collections. Each virtual collection comes with a persistent identifier and FAIR metadata.
The registry can be easily accessed via federated login.
The collection metadata is openly available and accessible via the Virtual Language Observatory. The referenced digital objects can also be processed with the Language Resource Switchboard.
The SSH Open Marketplace is maintained and will be further developed by three European Research Infrastructures - DARIAH, CLARIN and CESSDA - and their national partners. It was developed as part of the "Social Sciences and Humanities Open Cloud" SSHOC project, European Union's Horizon 2020 project call H2020-INFRAEOSC-04-2018, grant agreement #823782.
