Create a Digital Edition using LEAF Commons
Are you interested in encoding texts for literary and linguistic study? Do you want to publish your data but are not sure how? Are you about to embark on a text analysis project and are unsure of the tools available to you? Do you want to follow the FAIR principles of data? Do you have some familiarity with XML and TEI and want to experiment with new workflows? Anyone with these questions and more is welcome at the 'Creating a Digital Edition using LEAF Commons' Workshop.
LEAF Commons is a suite of independent but interoperable tools created as part of the LEAF-VRE to provide a web-based environment for researchers who want to create, encode, and publish cultural and scholarly materials. In this workshop, James Cummings (Newcastle University), one of the team behind LEAF-VRE, will walk us through how to use LEAF-Writer and other LEAF Commons tools and their benefits.
Although using LEAF-Writer needs only basic XML and TEI familiarity, this workshop is predominantly aimed at those with some experience in both, or looking to use LEAF-Writer as part of a team interested in conducting research using textual data. Both researchers of all levels - including postgraduate students - are welcome.
This is a joint event held between the School of Advanced Study's Digital Humanities Research Hub and the Oxford Text Archive, the UK repository for literary and linguistic data, based at the University of Oxford.
Lunch will be provided. Please do join us!
All welcome
This event is free to attend, but booking is required. This event is in-person only.
