The www.europeana.ro project was launched more than 4 years ago, on December 2001, and it managed to impose on Romanian web as an objective and quality source in European affairs. At the moment we have more than 3000 subscribers and our notoriety is in a permanent rising among interested Romanians on the European issues.

We offer free access to www.europeana.ro.

In the past half of year we observed that our visitors firstly come from the academic medium (~ 36%), than from the business medium (~ 20%), and from the administrative and political medium (~ 12%), the NGOs are represented by ~ 8 %, media by ~ 7% and others 17%.

Our visitors know at least another foreign language, mainly English.

The success of our site is due to a couple of elements:
A. The content

By using a different editorial format for our news, they became completely different from those published in the Romanian on-line press. This transforms the news in a veritable instrument of working for the persons interested in the subject.
Our articles are compound of:
- the title of the news;
- the news in short;
- the proper news;
- links to the sources of the article;
- supplementary information regarding the subject;
- links to the articles previously published on the subject;
- links to other extern sources of information concerning with the subject.

The press review of www.europeana.ro is unique not only by the quantity of the every day indexed news but also by the manner this pieces of news are structured. We daily post the news of European interest appeared in the on-line publications and we group them according to the subject.

The site visitors have the possibility to access the press review archive where they will find all the pages published before in this rubric. A major advantage of this archive is that they can fallow the thread of a subject in its chronological development.

The news in short are the third pillar of the news rubric. They usually cover the novelties in the European field, novelties that does not appear in other Romanian on-line source the day we publish them.

From January 2005 we launched the site’s daily informational bulletin which has a major success among our visitors. 3000 of them were subscribed to our newsletter in March 2006. The bulletin presents a selection of the most important news from the press review and also the summary of our own articles.

Besides of the news we have other rubrics extremely appreciated:
