Apologies for any cross posting. The following announcement may be of
interest to members of the list.
A new Information Leaflet from AHDS "Creating a Viable Scholarly Data
Resource" is now available on the AHDS website at:
http://ahds.ac.uk/deposit/viable.html
This Information Leaflet is intended to inform researchers and
teachers about steps they can take to ensure that digital resources
they create today are accessible to them,and possibly to others in
future despite numerous and unpredictable changes in computer
technologies.
The good practices recommended in these pages are generic and as
such intended for application to digital resources of any type
(text, database, image, sound, multimedia,etc.) and from any discipline
(linguistics, visual arts, music, history,philosophy,
archaeology). Signposting to more detailed advice from AHDS
Service Providers about applications as appropriate to particular
data types and subjects, and to particular computer applications, is
provided in the appendix.
