Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references and index
Archives and special collections departments have a long history of preserving and
providing long-term access to organizational records, rare books, and other unique
primary sources including manuscripts, photographs, recording, and artifacts in various
formats. The careful curatorial attention to such records has also ensured that such
records remain available to researchers and the public as sources of knowledge, memory,
and identity. Digital curation presents an important framework for the continued preservation
of digitized and born-digital collections, given the ephemeral and device-dependent
nature of digital content. Digital curation in the Digital Humanities comprises a
joint framework for preserving, promoting, and accessing digital collections. This
book explores at great length the conceptualization of digital curation projects with
interdisciplinary approaches that combine the digital humanities and history, information
architecture, social networking, and other themes for such a framework. The individual
chapters focus on the specifics of each area, but the relationships holding the knowledge
architecture and the digital curation lifecycle model together remain an overarching
theme throughout the book; thus, each chapter connects to others on a conceptual,
theoretical, or practical level. -- from back cover
