This document discusses teaching digital humanities through virtual research environments (VREs). It describes the digital humanities landscape, challenges in utilizing digital resources, and examples of VREs like LORE, Old Bailey, TAPoR and NINES. VREs provide tools for students to analyze digital objects, collaborate, and develop information retrieval and analysis skills important for working with growing digital resources. When incorporated into coursework through assessable tasks, VREs can help students engage in humanities questions and interpretations in a hands-on, experimental way.
Challenges facing Museums/Education today and in the futuredirectcs
Museums face challenges in the 21st century as most still operate as they did in the 1800s. New challenges include the need for community collaboration, leadership, and a standardized information exchange format. While frameworks exist, like the Museum Computer Network in the US and Archives for the 21st Century in the UK, developing a single unified framework is difficult due to cultural differences. The Getty framework has attempted this through standardized vocabularies and categories, and could serve as a starting point for a global information exchange standard to help museums communicate in the future.

Challenges & opportunities in the preservation of (digital) information: the ...LIBER Europe
This document summarizes challenges and opportunities in preserving digital information for European research libraries. It discusses how libraries are increasingly digitizing content and collecting born-digital materials like websites and e-journals. This is driven by changes in scholarship and a push for open access. However, preservation is difficult due to the variety of information types and lack of selection processes, sustainable funding models, and governance. Opportunities exist through increased collaboration, shared infrastructure like Europeana Cloud, and developing common standards and tools.
The project was a collaboration between the National Endowment for the Humanities and the American Antiquarian Society. It consisted of creating an online exhibit and archives exploring the development of news media from 1730 to 1865. The NEH provided funding and a teacher workshop, while the AAS hosted the project and houses the archives. The website allows users to explore how early news platforms influenced information spread and public/private lives as media consumption grew during this transformative period. It serves as a valuable educational resource for exploring the humanities and historical research.
This document discusses the interaction between digital libraries and digital humanities. It begins by defining digital libraries and digital humanities, noting that digital libraries have advanced digitization efforts and made data more open and reusable, which supports digital humanities work. Digital humanities drives new approaches and questions in digital libraries. The document then discusses specific examples of digital library and digital humanities collaboration in Serbia and through organizations like DARIAH and LIBER. It concludes by questioning whether the relationship between digital libraries and digital humanities will be a long-term partnership or a short-term convenience.
This document discusses efforts to 'queer' or decolonize traditional knowledge organization systems by making them more inclusive of LGBTQ+ communities and perspectives. It provides a brief history of advocacy work beginning in the 1970s to improve subject headings and classification of LGBTQ+ materials. More recently, librarians in Durham created a new classification system for an LGBTQ+ center to better represent those communities. Future directions may include more tagging systems, multiple access points, and non-standardized schemas, though some argue for updating terms while retaining older ones. The goal is to respectfully weave LGBTQ+ communities into the conversation around knowledge organization."
The News Media and the Making of America project was a collaboration between the National Endowment for the Humanities and the American Antiquarian Society. It consisted of a 2015 summer institute for teachers and a 2016 publicly accessible website. The website explores how news media culture developed from 1730 to 1865 and how early platforms influenced information spread and public/private lives. It is funded solely by NEH and features archives of newspapers, documents, and maps from the period to analyze media's role in civic engagement and culture.
This document summarizes Harvard's integration of IIIF and Mirador to provide access to digital collections across the university. It describes how Harvard became interested in these technologies to support teaching, research, and digital access. The summary chronicles Harvard's involvement with IIIF from 2010 to present day, including launches of digital collections and tools using these standards. It highlights cross-campus collaboration between groups like the libraries, art museums, and academic technology services.
The project explores changes in American news media from 1730-1865 through a collaboration between the National Endowment for the Humanities and the American Antiquarian Society. A summer institute in 2015 involved 25 teachers in developing the website, which was launched in 2016 for public use. It receives funding from NEH and features primary sources like newspapers and documents to analyze how media influenced civic engagement and culture during a period of rapid change. The project connects to concepts of digital humanities by making archives widely accessible and examining how transportation innovations impacted the spread of information.
This document summarizes Donald Spaeth's presentation on digital history given at the University of Glasgow in 2013. It discusses the history of computing in history from the 1980s to the present, highlighting how historians have increasingly adopted digital tools and online resources in their research and teaching. The document also examines some of the opportunities and challenges of new developments like MOOCs and disseminating teaching content more widely online.
This document discusses virtual research environments (VREs) in the digital humanities field. It provides examples of several existing VREs, including TextGrid (Germany), TAPoR (Canada), NINES (US/UK), DARIAH (EU-wide), and a VRE for European Holocaust research. It explains that VREs aim to provide researchers with collaborative tools and interfaces to organize, analyze, and share digital research materials online. However, developing VREs for the humanities poses challenges around establishing common standards, balancing diversity of research with coordination needs, and ensuring new technologies support rather than hinder existing humanistic methods.

Digital Arts & Humanities is a website developed by King's College London to support communities applying information and communication technology to arts and humanities research. The site helps practitioners build contacts and stay up to date in their dynamic field. It was designed to support both individuals and groups through features like blogs, wikis, and forums to share content and ideas.
This document discusses open access to archives and historical records. It notes that the National Library of Wales has been a strong advocate for open access by making the Welsh Journals and Newspapers projects fully open online. This allows students in Glasgow to study Welsh wills freely instead of Scottish wills that require paying fees. The document calls on the Scottish Government to consider this lesson and expand open access to more of its archives. It concludes by providing contact information for the author Lorna M. Campbell.

Building library networks with linked dataEnno Meijers
Slides of my talk at the Semantics Conference in Vienna in 2018. The topic of the talk was the initiative of the National Library of the Netherlands to publish their bibliographic metadata as Linked Data.
This was a presentation for the Connecticut Library Association 2016. It introduces how the Connecticut Digital Archive came to be, the challenges of the CTDA and how it is moving forward.
This presentation is used for Connecticut based non-profit institutions who are thinking of becoming CTDA participants. It introduces the technologies of CTDA as well as provides some quick tips on how to add and manage content.
This document provides instructions for adding, replacing, or deleting datastreams for Fedora digital objects. It explains that some datastreams like OBJ are required and cannot be deleted. It describes how to replace a datastream by selecting the datastream, browsing for a new file, and clicking "Add Contents". It also outlines how to add a new datastream by clicking "+ Add a datastream", filling out the datastream ID and label, uploading a file, and clicking "Add Datastream". Formats for some common datastreams like MODS (xml) and TN (jpg, png) are also specified.
The document discusses a program called the CTDA that helps organizations better preserve their digital assets through facilitated participation in shared infrastructure with local control. The CTDA provides preservation services, but does not control how organizations use or share their content. It aims to make technology invisible and minimize demands on participants while providing options for digital preservation and information organization. The goal is to empower participants as stewards of their own digital content.
This workshop is intended for Connecticut Digital Archive participants to introduce them to xml and how MODS or metadata object description schema is implemented in the CTDA.
The CTDA is a digital archive program hosted by the University of Connecticut Library in collaboration with the Connecticut State Library. It offers long-term preservation services for digital content from Connecticut non-profits. Services include technical infrastructure, support, governance, education and contributing content to the Digital Public Library of America and ResearchIT. Participation is open to organizations like libraries, historical societies, and museums. Governance is collaborative rather than directive. The CTDA provides training and documentation on adding and managing content. It works to ensure stable infrastructure through software updates, server maintenance, and new feature development. Recent updates include migrating websites to Drupal and developing new tools for batch ingest, geospatial content, and newspaper pages. Plans for the
- Compound objects in Islandora group sets of related digital objects together without requiring a specific presentation order, similar to how a postcard has a front and back.
- To create a compound object, relevant child objects are first ingested individually or as a batch. Their PIDs are recorded.
- A parent object is then created using the Islandora Compound Object model and populated by adding each child object PID one by one. The order affects presentation of the compound object.
The CTDA has seen significant growth in 2016, with digital assets increasing over 45% to over 412,547 assets. Records harvested also grew by over 43% to 49,923 records. New participants were added and functionality was expanded. Governance committees met regularly to discuss initiatives and projects. Education and training sessions were provided, including a user conference and workshops. The sites and systems performed reliably with over 98% uptime. Feedback from surveys was generally positive and highlighted areas for further improvement and reporting.
This how to document provides a step by step guide on how to use the Islandora Manuscript Content Model to ingest a TEI encoded xml file and one or more scanned images of a text such as a manuscript.
This document introduces Open Refine, an open source tool for cleaning and profiling messy data. It discusses how data from various sources can be inconsistent and inaccurate, and how Open Refine allows users to visualize their data, manipulate it to correct errors, and learn about the nature of the data. The basics of Open Refine involve using its interface and built-in transformations as well as custom functions like GREL and regular expressions to clean and restructure data.
The CT Digital Archive (CTDA) is a digital preservation program that sustains and provides access to over 500,000 digital assets from the University of Connecticut and more than 30 other Connecticut institutions. It uses open-source technologies like Fedora Commons, Islandora, and Drupal to store, manage, and preserve digital files and records in a way that maintains their authenticity, reliability, and reusability over the long term. While participants retain ownership of their assets, the CTDA provides services and support for all aspects of digital preservation and management through policies, documentation, training, and technical infrastructure supported by the UConn Library.
DANS is a Dutch institute that provides permanent access to digital research data in the humanities and social sciences. It operates an online archiving system called EASY that encourages researchers to archive and reuse data. DANS also provides access to thousands of datasets through NARCIS.nl and offers training and advice on data management. The presentation discusses challenges in computational history and the need for digital research infrastructures to support collaborative efforts like sharing historical sources and datasets across networks. Infrastructures mentioned include DARIAH and CLARIN, which aim to connect distributed digital materials in the arts and humanities.
The 'Living with machines' project is a collaboration between the British Library and the Alan Turing Institute for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. This presentation introduces the project and highlights some early explorations and work.
This document provides an agenda and overview for a workshop on digital scholarship at the British Library. The workshop aims to define digital scholarship, explore how digital technologies are reshaping research, and discuss some key concepts like text mining, data visualization, georeferencing, crowdsourcing, and collaboration. The agenda includes introductions, defining digital scholarship, discussions of specific techniques behind common buzzwords, a group activity, and planning next steps. Examples of digital scholarship projects involving the British Library are also presented.
This document discusses digital research and the opportunities afforded by new digital tools and resources. It notes that libraries and archives have spent decades digitizing assets and born-digital objects, allowing researchers to discover more digital objects. Digital research involves new tools, discoveries, and understandings. It highlights several British Library (BL) digital platforms and projects that facilitate exploration of collections, aggregation of content, annotation, transcription, and analysis. These advances support new avenues of research through computational methods and large textual databases. The document encourages discussion on analytical tools, ethical considerations, open access, and collaborative opportunities in digital humanities research.

From Catalogue 2.0 to the digital humanities: exploring the future of librari...Sally Chambers
This document discusses the evolving role of libraries and librarians in supporting digital scholarship and the digital humanities. It describes how traditional cataloguing tools like MARC are changing to incorporate new metadata standards and linked data. Research libraries' engagement with research infrastructures has been low but is increasing as opportunities arise in areas like research data management, digital repositories, and scholarly communication. The document argues libraries have important roles to play in discovery, data management, and as embedded partners supporting digital humanities researchers and their evolving needs. Collaboration between libraries and digital humanities centers is highlighted as a way to advance both fields.
The document provides an overview of digital research at the British Library. It discusses how digital tools and large datasets are transforming research in the humanities and social sciences. Key points include:
- Tools like Google Ngram Viewer and text analysis allow researchers to analyze millions of digitized texts and better understand cultural trends over time.
- Projects like "Reading the Riots" use social media data and computational methods to analyze the spread of information during times of crisis.
- Quantitative analysis of digitized books and newspapers enables new perspectives on a large scale not previously possible.
- The digital humanities represents a shift in how interdisciplinary collaboration and computer-assisted methods are used in research.

Digital Humanities [and Academic Libraries] - Sandra CowanSandra Cowan
Digital Humanities (DH) uses computing technologies to investigate traditional humanities questions or asks how computing impacts the humanities. DH is interdisciplinary, collaborative, project-based, and produces non-traditional scholarly outputs. It has grown since the 1960s with initiatives in text encoding, digital scholarship, and DH departments. Academic libraries support DH through consultation, digital collections, text mining, technology, and publishing support. Many libraries house DH centers and participate in DH networks to further collaborate on and advance DH research.
From digital to social collections. A short story of collections online.Elena Lagoudi
Digital collections have evolved from being object-oriented to being people-oriented. Early digital collections in the 1960s-2000s focused on digitization, cataloging and making collections available online. However, even then there was a recognition that digital collections should serve communities of users and prioritize searchability. The rise of web 2.0 in the 2000s enabled greater user participation, sharing and social interactions around digital collections. This led museums to embrace more open and inclusive digital collections. Now, digital curators work to make collections discoverable, meaningful, responsive and interoperable through the use of standards and by facilitating connections between collections, users and communities.
Digital Research – why we are here, what we have, what we can do for youJames Baker
This document discusses digital research projects at the British Library. It provides examples of past projects that analyzed large datasets using computational tools to gain new insights. These include analyzing misinformation spread on Twitter during a crisis and quantifying patterns of use in medieval manuscripts. The document emphasizes the potential for interdisciplinary, collaborative projects and notes the convergence of technology and culture in the emerging digital humanities field. Examples of current and potential future projects are also mentioned.

2. Cyberinfrastructure and the Human Record
“Digital cultural heritage resources are a fundamental
dataset for the humanities…
… combined with computer networks and software tools,
[they] now shape the way that scholars [and all interested
people] discover and make sense of the human record…
… [and] the way their findings are communicated to
students, colleagues, and the general public.”
"The Report of the American Council of Learned Societies Commission on
Cyberinfrastructure for the Humanities and Social Sciences." American
Council of Learned Societies (2006)
