AHDS Digitisation Workshops
http://ahds.ac.uk/workshops/
AHDS Digitisation Workshops lead potential and actual digitisers to the
wider issues involved in developing a digital resource. Thus besides
data
capture, delegates can learn about project management, metadata and
documentation, deposit and delivery, rights issues and consider how
digitisation can fit in with their wider educational purposes.
The workshops also offer delegates the opportunity to discuss particular
issues in relation to their own projects. Surgery sessions are organised
to
allow those planning or undertaking a digitisation project to have
one-to-one conversations with members of AHDS staff.
These workshops are free and open to all. This can include researchers,
lecturers, and librarians, as well as those working in other cultural
organisations, such as museums and archives. Potential applicants to the
AHRB, or other funding bodies such as the Leverhulme Trust or the
British
Academy, may well find the workshop helpful when completing any
technical
aspects of their funding applications.
