Dear Colleagues, today, we are pleased to present you the nineth TextGrid Newsletter: http://www.textgrid.de/en/newsletter.html In June 2011 TextGrid is going to present a stable Version 1.0 which is intended to be productively used in research projects. In this context we will organize the TextGrid-Tage 2011 (TextGrid Days) at Göttingen on 12/13 July, where lectures, tutorials and workshops will take place. The newsletter addresses the following topics: * Roadmap for Version 1.0 * TextGrid-Tage on 12/13 July, 2011 * Press Kit with Interviews The joint project TextGrid aims to support access to and exchange of data in the arts and humanities by means of modern information technology (the grid). In 2006 development began on a web-based platform, one which will provide services and tools for researchers for analysis of text data in various digital archives - independently of data format, location and software. TextGrid serves as a virtual research environment for philologists, linguists, musicologists and art historians. This newsletter is a joint effort of all TextGrid partners. You can subscribe to it on the TextGrid website (http://www.textgrid.de/en/newsletter/subscribe.html).

In collaboration with the Senate House Library at the University of London, the Schoenberg Center for Electronic Text & Image at the University of Pennsylvania is pleased to announce the creation of the Seymour de Ricci Bibliotheca Britannica Manuscripta Digitized Archive, a corollary project to the Schoenberg Database of Manuscripts. The archive is a searchable database containing the digitized notes of the historian and bibliographer Seymour Montefiore Robert Rosso de Ricci (1881-1942) made for the compilation of his unfinished census of pre-1800 manuscripts in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. De Ricci's notes, compiled in thirty-four boxes containing over 60,000 index cards, are currently housed in the Senate House Library. The first cards are now available online in downloadable pdf format. More will become available as they are scanned and processed. New cards will be added daily until the project is completed in the Summer of 2011. To learn more and access the archive, go to http://dla.library.upenn.edu/dla/schoenberg/index.html. ****************** Lynn Ransom, Ph.D. Project Manager, Lawrence J.

Greetings, all-- The following posting may be of interest to some of you: MPublishing at the University of Michigan Library seeks applications from postdoctoral candidates in the humanities for a two-year position that focuses on digital scholarship and publishing. The MPublishing CLIR Fellowship will provide an opportunity for an ambitious and curious Ph.D. recipient in the humanities to develop skills and experience as a publishing professional in an innovative library-based scholarly communication environment. Reporting to the Head of Publishing Services Outreach, the Fellow will assist with articulating, developing, and promoting publishing needs and publishing models. Specific activities may include: * Researching publishing needs for the digital humanities and humanities publishing through surveys, listening sessions, and other research methods; implementing new products and/or services based on research * Facilitating the promotion and outreach of MPublishing to campus and beyond through a variety of media and audiences * Working with faculty and MPublishing staff to produce online scholarly journals and book series While the CLIR fellow will work on a range of publishing initiatives, this fellowship will be of particular interest to those who are interested in alternative academic career paths in higher education; emerging models and modes of scholarly communication and publishing; and dynamic new roles for libraries and university presses. This position will be a good match for Fellows with abilities and interests in digital technology and media. The Fellow will participate in national meetings with other CLIR fellows.
