# Working with audio-visual resources

## Context:

- Giving access to INA reference corpora

- Specific condition for research

- Experience gained from the MediaEval campaing

- Strategic support from MESR and ANR

<figure><img src="image_48.png" /></figure>
# Working at the service of Arts and Humanitites

* Variety of possible digital resources

* Need to work with data providers and research communities

- Licencing, standardisation, technical issues

* An important aspect: disseminating a digital culture in the humanities

- Basic methods, good practices

* Let us speak further about all this...
