Multi Media Access (MMB): the Deutsche Bibliothek approach
Hans Liegmann, Die Deutsche Bibliothek


DDB's system for multimedia access and preservation has three main functions:- end-user access to all kinds of electronic publications and digital objects, preservation of endangered analogue and digital data, and integration of the inside and outside world through intranet concepts. DDB's approach is pragmatic, based on the integration of existing hardware/software products and services.
