Minister Deenihan congratulates Digital Repository of Ireland on their eGovernment Awards success

Thank you to everyone who has passed on congratulations about the eGovernment award wins last week. The office is all abuzz! We at DRI and all the partners in Inspiring Ireland are delighted – it was truly a group effort.

If you would like to read more, here are a few articles that made the press:

"I would like to congratulate Dr Sandra Collins and her team at the Digital Repository of Ireland for winning this prestigious award.

The Inspiring Ireland project showcases Ireland’s culture to a global audience. This promises to be one of the most important online cultural initiatives taken to date in Ireland.

As Minister for the Diaspora I want to recognise the potential of the Inspiring Ireland project for making Irish culture, heritage and history accessible to our diaspora. The core principles of the project, to preserve, discover, share, remind us of the importance of not only preserving our national collection but of also making it accessible to Irish people around the world."
