It is a collaborative project between Bruges Public Library, Ghent University Library, the Major Seminary Ten Duinen in Bruges and the Diocese of Ghent. The project has been awarded grants from the Flemish Government (Department of Culture, Youth and Media). The project aims to provide digital access to the c. 760 extant medieval manuscripts of the abbeys of Ten Duinen, Ter Doest, Saint Peter’s and Saint Bavo’s. The images and metadata of the manuscripts will be gathered and presented on the mmmonk platform in a sustainable and open manner using the International Image Interoperability Framework (iiif). The platform will gather existing knowledge, present educational content, and encourage further research on the monastic manuscripts. mmmonk will contribute to the development and implementation of iiif for complex book materials. %U https://www.aup-online.com/content/journals/10.5117/QUE2020.2.005.HAUW
