In addition, we have increased our service for electronic
publications on our website: Users have the choice between
publications which can be kept up to date with a personal user ID
and publications without an update option, but with better search
ability. The Hornemann Institute now offers a "persistent
identifier" for important publications to its authors in cooperation
with the Technische Informationsbibliothek Hannover (TIB). These
DOIs (Digital Object Identifier) are easier to find and are also
accepted as reference by many scientific journals.

With this free of charge offer of electronic publishing the
Hornemann Institute promotes the exchange of information among
professional restorers / conservators. All copyrights are
maintained, further publications are possible at any time.

In 2012 we will give the first Hornemann Open Access Award on the
occasion of the Hildesheimer Tag der Restaurierung (Hildesheim Day
of Restoration) on January 27, 2012.

Eligible are theses which are available free of charge on the
Institute's website. Criteria are strong demand as well as
scientific quality, to be reviewed by an external scientific
advisory board.
