The project entitled "Digital encyclopaedia of Slovenian natural and cultural heritage" (DEDI II) has been evolved as a prototype research and development project (2009-2010). It represents the first attempt of multimedia-rich digital representation of Slovenian natural and cultural heritage by the means of interdisciplinary work of different cultural and educational institutions. Verifiable, qualitative and complex content of four types of heritage is co-located on a common site (immovable, movable, vivid and natural heritage) with the goal to promote the heritage and educate the general public, as well as to encourage the public to create tomorrow's heritage. A new detailed thesaurus was constructed enabling the classification of different kinds of heritage.It merges the established and newly created taxonomies of each type of heritage. To ensure the quality of published contents, the professional Editorial Board has been established. The National and University Library of Slovenia (NUK), one of the fundamental institutions for collecting and keeping the written cultural heritage of Slovenia, has already participated in the conception of the first project scheme. In the second part of the DEDI project, NUK contributed a number of digitalized books selected on the basis of their historical and literary importance. Digitalized books were published on the DEDI portal under the movable cultural heritage taxonomy. Projekt Digitalna enciklopedija naravne in kulturne dediščine na Slovenskem (DEDI II) je prototipni raziskovalno-razvojni projekt (2009-2010) in predstavlja prvi poskus večmedijske digitalne predstavitve slovenske naravne in kulturne dediščine in interdisciplinarno združuje delo različnih kulturnih in izobraževalnih institucij, s čimer so bile na enem mestu zbrane verodostojne, kakovostne in kompleksne vsebine štirih vrst dediščine (nepremične, premične, žive kulturne ter naravne) z namenom, izobraževati in približati dediščino najširši javnosti in jo spodbuditi k soustvarjanju jutrišnje dediščine. Za potrebe projekta je bil narejen podroben tezaver dediščine, ki združuje do sedaj znane in na novo dopolnjene taksonomije za posamezne vrste de-diščine. Ustanovljena je bila strokovna uredniška skupina, ki skrbi za kakovost objavljenih vsebin. Narodna in univerzitetna knjižnica (NUK) je kot ena temeljnih ustanov za hranjenje in zbiranje slovenske pisne kulturne dediščine sodelovala že pri zasnovi pilotnega projekta DEDI, v nadaljevalnem projektu pa je z digitalizacijo pomembnih zgodovinskih in literarnih del v okviru premične dediščine prispevala k primerni zastopanosti virtualne knjige na spletnem portalu DEDI.
