Dear LODLAM List members
This may be of interest to those of you working on DH, Spatial Humanities, Linked Open Data and related topics and in particular those located on the West Coast in the US.
Please feel free to share widely:
Pelagios Commons and the Center for Spatial Humanities at Stanford invite attendees to the Linked Pasts III meeting, December 4-6 2017, at Stanford.
Linked Pasts is dedicated to exploring the issues and opportunities raised by developing an ecosystem of online open materials for the study of the past. Its yearly symposia take a hands-on approach to the subject of implementing Linked Open Data—the mechanism by which digital resources can be connected through having something in common (be it place, person, time, or some other entity). Bringing together a diverse group of researchers, Linked Pasts facilitates pragmatic developments in the production, curation and use of historical data in academia and cultural heritage more broadly.
Linked Pasts III @Stanford uses the structure of real-world use cases, provocations and breakout groups to address the challenges of linking people, their works, and place in time. It will be of interest to anyone working with digital data and looking to make their resources more discoverable and usable. Linked Pasts III provides a unique opportunity for scholars, technologists, librarians, and archivists to explore, build and shape linked data practices together.
The event is free and open to anyone to attend, but registration is required. For more information, and for to register, please see the Eventbrite page: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/linked-pasts-iii-new-voices-old-places-registration-35950529000
