Students wishing to attend can request a waiver of the registration fees by emailing: events(a)oii.ox.ac.uk<mailto:events@oii.ox.ac.uk> Sponsors: Joint Information Systems Committee<http://www.jisc.ac.uk/> About the workshop: The question of how we can measure and understand the usage and impact of digital content within the education sector is becoming increasingly important. Substantial investment goes into the creation of digital resources for research, teaching and learning and, in the current economic climate, both content creators, publishers as well as funding bodies are being asked to provide evidence of the value of the resources they've invested in. But how do we go about defining value and impact? Which metrics should we adopt to understand usage? When is a digital resource a well used resource? This one-day event will explore these and other key issues and showcase the work of the JISC-funded Impact and Embedding of Digitised Resources<http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/programmes/digitisation/impactembedding.aspx> programme. Speakers include: Melissa Highton<http://blogs.oucs.ox.ac.uk/melissa/abou/> (Oxford University Computing Services), Brian Kelly<http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/web-focus/events/workshops/digital-impacts-2011/> (UKOLN), Dr Jane Winters<http://www.history.ac.uk/about/jane-winters> (Head of Publications, IHR), Professor David Robey<http://www.oerc.ox.ac.uk/people/david-robey> (Oxford e-Research Centre), Paola Marchionni<http://www.jisc.ac.uk/contactus/staff/paolamarchionni.aspx> (JISC), Dr Eric T.

The Digital Index of Middle English Verse (iMEV: http://www.cddc.vt.edu/host/imev/Index.html) is now complete insofar as entering all the IMEV records, those of its Supplement, many new records, and most of the data collected for first-two and last-two lines of all witnesses except those in London archives.
