Digital Curation in the Digital Humanities: Preserving and Promoting Archival and Special Collections (Chandos Information Professional Series) - Softcover
Digital humanities have transformed the production, curation, and accessibility of humanistic information in a rapidly evolving techno-cultural and interdisciplinary intellectual landscape. From the early days of text-encoded initiatives to the digitization of cultural heritage and local history content and yet again to data curation using linked data and semantic technologies, the need to preserve the content and metadata continues to receive much attention in professional literature. Digital Curation in the Digital Humanities addresses practical and theoretical aspects of digital curation as it evolves in archival curation practice, social media, and e-learning. The growing demand for e-learning presents archives and special collections staff with opportunities to preserve and promote archival and special collections. This book takes a systems approach to digital curation - a model requiring collaboration among archives, libraries, researchers, faculty, technologists, and administrators.
