Main Objective The Other Silver Age (La otra Edad de Plata): rare and forgotten authors, works, topics and genres (1868-1936) CLAVY: Mnemosine’s skeleton Clavy is an RIA (Rich Internet Application) developed by the ILSA Group (UCM) to import, preserve, and edit information from collections of digital objects from institutional libraries. It allows to build bridges between digital repositories and create collections of enriched digital content. Clavy also provides a systems of data visualization and navigation which can be personalised with external applications inserted as plugin system. This allows Clavy to import and export from multiple formats (MARC21, XLS, XML, OdA). Clavy platform can incorporate other tools for annotation (@note), localization (Google maps)and edition (Madgazine). Clavy platform allows to operate with the collections through REST connections. One example of this is the web Mnemosine that has a personalised access to explore the collection.
