I didn't know that the Goethe-Institut runs an #OpenAccess search engine called BOSS:
“With the BOSS Open Access Search, a Resource Discovery System (RDS), you have access to about 3 million licence-free publications from the General Index of All German Academic Libraries, which are available for free download. These are books, articles, dissertations as well as newspaper and journal articles.“
Reminder: Join us today for a Community Call to learn more about the intersection of #IIIF and ARKs, including discussion with @julsraemy, John Kunze, and Richard Higgins
