LEVELS OF RESOURCE BUILDING
an aggregation of data an integration of services a personalised tools and speheres
catalogue records images full texts music notation comparison of full texts comparison of images
a virtual environment
AN AGGREGATION OF DATA
database and information system relating to the end user
not a mere replica of a physical library surpasses significantly the opportunities that were
offered by the traditional scientific infrastructure descriptive metadata, i.e. catalogue entries, are
aggregated, and they are converted to a uniform format
joint search finds manuscripts
AN INTEGRATION OF SERVICES
service is a new concept in relation to the manuscript sphere
it already affects some elements of actual research work
whatever exists only in traditional printed or written and other, simply analogue form does not exist
PERSONALISED TOOLS AND SPHERES
a user´s own digital space a possibility to accumulate the results of previous
work one’s own tools for acquiring results as well as for
their further processing and subsequent utilisation for himself/herself to other selected persons to all users
CATALOGUE RECORDS
variants of descriptive records a subject specific
a musicology a history of arts
analytical descriptions in-depth description of manuscript content composition/structure of intellectual units of higher
level individual intellectual units of lower levels
IMAGES
black & white optimisation details UV scanning (for palimpsests) …
FULLTEXTS
a fluid text a contextual edition
A MUSIC NOTATION
a written record of music a text in the semiotic meaning an edition in a similar sense like a textual edition
A COMPARISON OF FULLTEXTS
based on vectoral statistics working with XML, HTML, TXT a numerical-statistical representation of results a graphical representation of results
A COMPARISON OF IMAGES
distinguishing and selecting: a text, a music notation, an illumination, a border, a diagramm, a table
finding the same or a very similar illumination finding the same or a very similar detail of
illumination finding a similar composition of figurative and/or
non-figurative illumination …
A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT
a virtualisation of knowledge a path of how to uncover implicit, not only explicit,
features of the objects culturomics back to the digitisation of the written and a
documentary heritage
THE FUTURE…
continuing the same way a cooperation with more and more partners
an aggregation of data and metadata a more close network
an integration of services a virtualisation of the networked digital environment
a personal space external tools an interoperabilty webservices
