2.0 AthenaWeb, Your science video channel!
Kathleen Van Damme, Lab to Media/AthenaWeb, Belgium

Abstract
AthenaWeb is a video portal and audiovisual workstation. Think of it as the YouTube for science audiovisual professionals. It is a typical input-output system. Input comes from contributors and partners who provide AthenaWeb with the news and fi lms, and other content to drive the market place and events. The public can access 1,250 verifi ed and accurate science films – in full, in their native language – produced by trusted sources (such as public TV stations, labs, specialized producers organisations,…) who do not wish to make a profi t on the fi lm and are in accordance with the rights and arrangements of the film. Thanks to the support of DG RTD, AthenaWeb services and online catalogue are completely free for viewers and contributors.
