Digitisation Phase 2: digitisation articles
These four leaflets tell you about four projects under the Digitisation programme.
First World War Poetry Digital Archive
The 90th anniversary of the Armistice is in November 2008. And that date will also see the launch of the final collection of a remarkable archive, giving new insights into the Great War.
Online Historical Population Reports
Thanks to work funded by JISC and carried out by AHDS History at the University of Essex, nearly 200,000 pages of population data from between 1801 and 1937 have been put online.
Medical Journals Backfiles Digitisation
A partnership between the Wellcome Trust, JISC, the US National Library of Medicine (NLM) and a number of medical journal publishers is delivering over three million pages of medical journals via PubMed Central (PMC), the full-text, life sciences repository.
Archival Sound Recordings
Like other projects in JISC’s digitisation programme, Archival Sound Recordings has broken new ground both in terms of its technical innovations but also in its approach to rights issues, particularly complex as far as sound resources are concerned.
