Professional Development
The Browning Letters Project is a multiuniversity, international collaboration to provide open, online access to thousands of the Victorian poets' correspondence. This session will explore the project's roots, exponential growth involving thousands of scanned items, and the ways 19th-century resources are spawning new digital humanities research in 2014.
OUTCOMES: Learn effective strategies for managing input and digital files from disparate, geographically widespread sources * Learn techniques for leveraging existing digital collections to generate new scholarship and research for on-campus faculty * Identify tools for managing workflow and data architecture management geared to collaborative projects and strategies for using major media outlets and social media to increase project exposure
