Summary/Abstract: The portal History of Slovenia - SIstory.si is an interdisciplinary collection of historical publications, data, collections and metadata that has been operating since 2008. The portal encompasses a diverse range of historical information, including publications, images, extensive databases, and comprehensive metadata that describe the objects. The recent redesign of the SIstory portal has focused on ongoing efforts to offer the data not only as a collection of historical publications but also to enable greater transparency, interoperability, and availability of research data to a broader audience. This paper examines the portal’s redesign, focusing on technical improvements, and then provides an in-depth analysis of its content.
