We will be discussing our research project, An Electronic Database of Poetic Form, at a workshop on The Early English Books Online Text Creation Partnership (EEBO-TCP) at the Lincoln EPA Science Centre, Oxford, on the 20th April.
EEBO-TCP is a collaborative partnership between the Universities of Oxford and Michigan and the commercial publisher ProQuest. The TCP is working to create c.70,000 fully searchable encoded editions of early books printed in England or in English in the period 1473-1700, based on the image sets held by ProQuest’s EEBO resource, http://eebo.chadwyck.com.
The workshop on the 20th April will bring together scholars from various fields to discuss the sustainability of digital collections and how users can best benefit from future development of the EEBO-TCP resource. Further information to follow.
