Info
The ODIS database comprises documentation on the history of civil
society in Flanders and Belgium, with a focus on:
- organisations or intermediary structures
- individuals who were active in civil society
- publications by and about these organisations and individuals
- archives connected to these organisations and individuals
ODIS is a dynamic and contextual database. Numerous
collections of data, tools and registers related to the central
subject matter have been brought together here. This data has been
supplemented, updated and linked by partners in the project.
Beginning of 2010, the database had amassed data on:
- 24,935 organisations, 3397 of which are available in the public
catalogue
- 72,417 individuals, 27,189 of which are available in the public
catalogue
- 21,649 publications, 15,445 of which are available in the public
catalogue
- 8353 archival documents, 7086 of which are available in the
public catalogue
All suggestions and remarks concerning the aim and contents of
the database are welcome at info@odis.be.
As a research resource centre, ODIS promotes innovative,
multidisciplinary and comparative research into civil society, furthering
cross-fertilisation between historians, social scientists and custodians
of the heritage connected to this subject (archivists, librarians,
documentalists).
