The OAI-PMH protocol plays an essential role in the dissemination of digital collections in GLAM institutions (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums). In the Spanish context, Hispana has implemented requirements that determine the incorporation of collections for participation in Europeana. This article analyzes the administrative and technical requirements these institutions face to ensure their digital collections are properly collected. It also highlights the need to map metadata according to Dublin Core and EDM, thus ensuring interoperability between both platforms. Finally, it analyzes how integrated library management systems (IMS) and archival systems contribute to this process, highlighting the key role of customizing these tools and how applying a set of practical guidelines for the use of cataloging or description templates can simplify management and ensure successful digital dissemination.
