FROM CROWD-SOURCED COLLECTION
TO DIGITAL SCHOLARLY EDITION:
THE EXAMPLE OF THE LETTERS 1916

Letters 1916 AS “open project”

  • Open to general public: new community
  • Open to crowd for collecting and transcribing
  • Open because it doesn’t have a specific limit or range

« It is now our aim to maintain the trajectory we have set, demonstrating the applicability of crowdsourcing approaches to bona-fide scholarship in the humanities, whilst encouraging volunteers to aid us in transcribing a fascinating body of historical documents»
