Balisage Symposium on Cultural Heritage Markup Program

[Hugh Cayless]

I am very pleased to announce that the program for the Symposium on Cultural Heritage Markup is now available: http://balisage.net/CulturalHeritage/symposiumProgram.html

(the symposium will be followed by Balisage: The Markup Conference 2015 http://balisage.net/)

All of the talks in some way address and grapple with the complexity of Cultural Heritage materials and the difficulties involved in applying standard markup solutions to them. A further call for short presentations meant to kick off long discussions will be forthcoming, so please be on the lookout!

Topics include: 
- dealing with document fragments and fragmentary annotations
- aligning text to images and the character level
- interoperable cross-references using TEI
- converting metadata from legacy formats to web formats
- representing and storing metadata for long-term use

Symposium Logistics: 
- When: 10 August 2015
- Where: Bethesda North Marriott Hotel & Conference Center
     (Bethesda, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, DC)
