For this project a questionnaire was prepared to consider the wishes and requirements of future users in the selection of materials and sources and the development of functionalities. The survey is intended not only to scientists but to all persons interested in the history of World War I. We invite you to fill this questionnaire (about 15 min.) to support the development of a comprehensive digital collection of First World War in the next few years.
