CHO From Project to Program
The Connecticut History Online (CHO) project began as a collaboration between three institutions to digitize and provide online access to items from their collections. Over time, the goals expanded to include more partner institutions and a wider range of materials. While grants provided initial funding, sustainability has been an ongoing challenge requiring the addition of new partners, permanent staff, and a nonprofit structure. Lessons learned include the importance of long-term funding commitments, allowing time for new partners to join, and having some partners take leadership roles to serve the broader group's interests.

The Brooklyn Visual Heritage website (http://brooklynvisualheritage.org) represents a new visual resource for cultural heritage. The site was created as part of Project CHART (Cultural Heritage, Access, Research and Technology), a three-year collaborative project (2010-2013) funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) between Pratt School of Information and Library Science and three of New York’s leading cultural Institutions, the Brooklyn Historical Society, Brooklyn Museum, and Brooklyn Public Library. This paper examines the Brooklyn Visual Heritage website from the diverse perspectives of these cultural institutions and the communities they serve, from geographic communities to those of scholars, historians, and educators, while also addressing technical aspects of user experience and the challenges of cross institutional collaboration. We consider questions of shared decision-making on website design, public access and use as well as issues regarding how the BVH collections will continue to grow, while expanding the use of social media to promote greater community participation as part of a sustainable model.

Oral History, audio-visual materials and Digital Humanities: a new ‘grand cha...
Oral historians have long recognised that voice and gesture can communicate information, knowledge, emotion and interpretation in ways that text cannot. Indeed, oral history artefacts can be studied not only for the words they contain but also for features like interjections, gestures and silences that can, among other things, contain clues about an interviewee’s emotional state. Nevertheless, it can be argued that this process has not gone as far as is necessary, as Frisch has put it “Everyone knows that the core audio-visual dimension of oral history is notoriously underutilized” (Frisch 2006 p.102)
Technological developments---often based on advances made in the Digital Humanities community involving structured and semantic markup---have opened up a plethora of new ways to process audio-visual materials.
However, it is notable that these methods continue to privilege largely text-based approaches to Oral History; after all, what is meta-data but natural language codes inserted into a text in order to make explicit its meaning or constituent parts? Methods being developed in other fields that have, as yet, seen relatively little take up in Digital Humanities, for example, image and facial recognition, acoustic approaches to sentiment analysis, 3D imaging and modelling, digital narratology and storytelling etc offer methodologies that could be fruitfully brought to bear on the capture and especially the analysis of such sources. Not only might such approaches offer new interpretative strategies---that are neither founded upon nor predominately focused upon text---for engaging with audio-visual materials, but they could contribute to a more thorough and sustained reassessment of the dominance of the ‘written’ word in fields like Digital Humanities and Oral history. This paper will explore the possibilities for Oral History researchers that such developments might open up.

Digital Humanities at Small Liberal Arts Colleges
Digital methodologies and new media are changing the landscape of research and teaching in the humanities. Scholars can now computationally analyze entire corpora of texts or preserve and share materials through digital archives. Students can engage in authentic applied research linking literary texts to place or study Shakespeare in a virtual Globe Theater. Such developments collectively fall under the name “digital humanities,” which includes the humanities and humanistic social sciences and has largely been characterized by computing-intensive, collaborative, interdisciplinary projects at research institutions. Faculty, staff and students at small liberal arts colleges, however, are making significant contributions to the digital humanities, especially by engaging undergraduates both in and out of the classroom. Rebecca Frost Davis, Program Officer for the Humanities at the National Institute for Technology in Liberal Education (NITLE), will introduce the digital humanities landscape and share examples from small liberal arts colleges.

Reading and Writing the World: School Libraries as Sponsors of Transliteracy
School libraries can act as sponsors of transliteracy by supporting multiple ways of accessing and interacting with information across different platforms and media. As transliteracy involves reading, writing and interacting with various tools and media, school libraries should provide resources like ebooks, mobile devices, collaborative tools and social media to teach students skills in these areas. Libraries can also support transliteracy by rethinking collections, services and learning spaces to accommodate new literacies and media. By acting as sponsors of transliteracy, school libraries can help students develop important skills and close participation gaps.

Digital Documents, Histories and Archives in the 21st century
This document discusses the changing nature of archival collections and practices in the digital age. It notes that archives now contain analog, digitized, and born-digital materials. Additionally, it explores how social media like Twitter are producing large amounts of short, born-digital documents that provide new perspectives on events but raise issues around preservation and value. The document also examines the PMAN Twitter archive as a case study of how it captured a protest from many views. It argues short documents can illuminate diverse views if policies support archiving them.

Primary Sources In The Classroom

- 2. Using primary sources in research papers and projects is a time-honored way to engage students with primary historical materials.
- 5. Primary sources are available online today because of the development of technologies to scan and add metadata to original materials.
