The COST Action Interedition is delighted to announce a workshop to be held at the National Library of Israel, 6-7 October 2010.
The goal of Interedition (https://www.interedition.eu/) is to promote the interoperability of the tools and methodology used in the field of digital scholarly editing and research. Equally, Interedition seeks to raise the awareness of the importance of sustainability of the digital artefacts and instruments we create. To this end, Interedition is (amongst others) hosting this workshop at the National Library of Israel to explore the tools, methodologies, and approaches to better support a shared model for the creation of sustainable infrastructure for digital text.
This two-day event will include lectures by leading textual scholars (including Dirk Van Hulle, Malte Rehbein, Susan Schreibman, and Joris van Zundert) The first day will focus on lectures on topics ranging from the creation and futures of digital scholarly editions, to the tools being used to create and edit them. The second day will be hands-on centering on practical experience in using tools and methodologies central to the discipline, including TEI, TextGrid, eLaborate, and CollateX. On day II attendees will participate in a ‘project slam’ and there will be ample opportunity to discuss their editing projects with workshop facilitators.
