Knowledge Organisation for Digital Humanities : An Introduction
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Information and Knowledge Organisation in Digital Humanities. - London : Routledge. - 9781003131816 ; , s. 1-22

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The chapter introduces the discipline of knowledge organisation (KO) and its relevance to scholars and practitioners in the field of digital humanities (DH). It sets the stage for the volume's 12 contributed chapters, which present case studies at the intersection of the two research areas. The contributions develop themes that highlight the specific opportunities and challenges of bringing these fields together. The themes of the chapters reflect the preeminent research topics of KO for DH: metadata in cultural heritage collections, which includes topics like conceptual models; data aggregation and metadata enrichment. Information management of textual collections, lexical resources and research outputs provide another important focus. Interfaces to cultural heritage collections and automated techniques are also addressed. Several chapters are directly driven by humanities research questions: one example is the ResearchSpace project, which demonstrates the ineffectiveness of data-based information organisation for historians. Another is the use of geographic information systems (GIS) and semantic annotation to explore a classical text. Finally, the chapter calls for transdisciplinary research collaborations that will bridge the gap within and at the intersections of KO and DH.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Linnaeus University (Linnéuniversitetet, LNU) is an international public university in the province of Småland, Sweden. LNU was founded in 2010 by a merger of the former Växjö University and Kalmar University, and currently has approximately 44,000 enrolled students. The university is currently Sweden’s sixth largest in terms of student numbers. It has 600 partner universities in more than 80 countries around the world. Over the past decade, there has been a distinct emphasis on the Digital Humanities at LNU through a variety of initiatives, all focused on fostering interdisciplinary expertise in the Humanities, data analysis, cultural heritage, and ICTs. Best described as a decentralized collaborative culture, DH at LNU includes knowledge environments (e.g. Digital Transformations), centers of excellence (e.g. the Centre for Data Intensive Sciences and Applications), and the iInstitute (the local center for the international iSchools consortium). LNU was the first Swedish university to join DARIAH and is now leading the bid for national membership. In 2016, Linnaeus established a Digital Humanities Hub to focus on data-intensive digital humanities, leading to the implementation of digital humanities as a research and teaching subject at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, and to the Digital Humanities MA programme. This programme is being offered in English to international students, who benefit from being able to take advantage of the worldwide iSchools agreement for virtual student and faculty exchange. As part of the work of the DH Hub and the iInstitute, LNU was recently granted funding for a national PhD school in digital humanities, an initiative between four Swedish universities. In this presentation we will outline the original vision for fostering DH at Linnaeus University, reflect on the challenges and successes of the past few years and present general ideas on how to facilitate DH at the intersection of multiple disciplines.

Digital Humanities Master’s Programme at Linnaeus University
- 2022

Ingår i: Presented at Higher Education Programs in Digital Humanities and Social Sciences: Challenges and Perspectives.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The Digital Humanities Master’s Programme at Linnaeus University started enrolling students in the autumn of 2020. It is implemented as a collaboration between two faculties, Faculty of Arts and Humanities, and Faculty of Technology. The two-year programme is structured to allow a general one-year introduction to the field and in the second year the students choose their specialization. One-year programme is also available. The programme relies heavily on invited talks and collaboration with external sectors for theses. topics and research-based teaching. The talk will report on the structure and challenges of running such an interdisciplinary programme across departments and delivering it to a highly heterogeneous student group.
