DBC http://drupal.org/node/2677880

DBC is a public company, owned by Local Government Denmark and the Danish State. DBC's main task is to develop and maintain the bibliographic and IT infrastructure in the Danish libraries:

• By taking care of registration of books, music, AV materials, Internet documents, articles and reviews in newspapers and magazines in the National Bibliography.
• By developing and maintaining DanBib, the union catalogue of the Danish libraries and the infrastructure for the interlibrary loan. It comprises the national bibliography and the holdings of the libraries.
• By developing and maintaining Bibliotek.dk, which is the citizen's access to all Danish publications and to the holdings of the Danish libraries.

DBC can with these solutions support the goal of the libraries: "to encourage enlightenment, education and cultural activities". DBC's solutions can comply with the needs of the knowledge society for comprehensive quality information of current interest, thereby contributing to innovation in the society.

DBC's IT development is based on open source and service oriented architecture, following the recommendations of The National IT and the Danish Agency for Digitisation for public institutions.

The development of DBC’s solutions results in several services. The code of these services are returned to the TING Concept Community, an open source development community for libraries and library suppliers for reuse and further development. We have used these services to build Bibliotek.dk with Drupal.
