Leif-Jöran Olsson "Dramawebben, The Swedish Drama Web" KB 9 oktober 2015 Digisam
This document summarizes the Dramawebben project, which created a corpus of Swedish drama texts annotated using TEI guidelines. It discusses the goals of engaging the humanities community and students in TEI encoding. Examples are provided of semantic annotations added, such as occupations and weaving, and automatic visualizations created, including character networks. Training materials and evaluation resources created through the project are also mentioned.

This document summarizes the work of Digisam, a Swedish coordination secretariat for digital preservation. Digisam aims to 1) make recommendations for coordinated management of digital collections, 2) develop proposals for long-term digital preservation, and 3) define roles for aggregating, accessing, and preserving digital cultural heritage. It notes different types of digital information held by archives, libraries, and museums in Sweden and the need for common best practices and standards. A pilot study examined current digital preservation practices and identified a need for a common solution to manage all processes, given the large volumes of digital cultural heritage and lack of efficient long-term preservation currently.

The document discusses models for national collaboration on coordinating the digital cultural heritage in Sweden. It describes how the Swedish government oversees cultural agencies and institutions through annual directives and evaluations. There are 24 agencies responsible for collecting, preserving, digitizing and disseminating cultural heritage materials across archives, libraries and museums. In 2009, the government initiated a process to develop a national digitization strategy. This led to the establishment of DIGISAM in 2011 to coordinate efforts and make recommendations across agencies. DIGISAM's role is to help produce scalable solutions and define responsibilities to improve access to and preservation of Sweden's digital cultural heritage.
The document summarizes Sweden's national strategy for digitization of cultural heritage established in 2011. The strategy aims to coordinate efforts across 24 agencies and institutions to select, digitize, preserve and provide access to cultural heritage collections. It also establishes Digisam to coordinate this work and develop recommendations for aggregation, access, preservation and cost-effective solutions. Digisam will work with other organizations to develop semantic interoperability and infrastructure to make heritage collections more discoverable, linked and available for public use and research.
Digisam is a department at the Swedish National Archives that coordinates the digitization of Sweden's cultural heritage according to the national strategy set in 2011. The strategy aims to regulate agencies' and institutions' work in collecting, preserving, and providing access to cultural heritage information. Digisam's main tasks are to coordinate digital information management between agencies, develop proposals for long-term digital preservation, and define roles for aggregating, accessing, and preserving digital cultural heritage. It works with 24 agencies responsible for different aspects of cultural heritage.

Digisam works with 24 central agencies and institutions to help them develop digitization plans and increase the amount of digitized material available within their existing budgets, with the overall goals of creating scalable solutions, building infrastructure, and empowering users.

Living Mary, Nazareth
Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "The fountain has various names. It is commonly called Mary's Well, but is known also as Jesus' Spring and Gabriel's Spring. It stands beside the Greek Church, which is called the Church of Gabriel or the Church of the annunciation. The church is modern and its being half under ground gives it an unusual though not unpleasant appearance. The spring is north of the church and the water is conducted past the altar by a conduit to Mary's Well, which is the Fountain of the Virgin here seen in this view." 1910: Fotograf: okänd, OSU Special Collections & Archives (no known copyright restrictions)
