About the event
Workshop: Linking Data and Digitizations for Medieval Manuscripts
This workshop brings together from around Europe and North America representatives of many national digital manuscript libraries and portals, as well as of major manuscript-intensive research projects. The goal is to provide a survey of the present landscape and a roadmap for the future. The major manuscript platforms will present aspects of the Linked Open Data (LOD) work underway on their platforms: the current state of operation, the ontologies being used and being developed, and open problems, with an eye towards collaboration and interoperation across the ecosystem. The research projects will present their work, the LOD data component, and the challenges and promises of producing large amounts of Open Research Data in the current environment. A discussion will focus on concrete solutions for the present and strategic plans for the future.
