The AHDS Spring/Summer newsletter

We’ve just published the latest edition of the AHDS newsletter. You can read it on our website or download a copy.
(http://ahds.ac.uk/news/newsletters/spring-2007/)

It includes articles on a selection of new collections available via AHDS: a slave trade database, four new collections focussed on Live Art, a corpus of early modern English dialogues and a collection of medieval stained glass with free access to thousands of images online. There is also an interesting analysis on how users search an online resource – a key finding suggests it’s difficult to anticipate the things users will look for. In another article, two researchers outline their experience of depositing their resource with the AHDS.

There’s also news on a project to unlock the potential of research, a report on standards for 3D visualisation and an entertaining debate over the value of digital images (link).
