I made an @OceanicEx infographic to show what we were working with, in terms of numbers, when we made the Atlas of Digitised Newspapers and Metadata. Yes, we really did make a spreadsheet of over 3000 metadata fields (and you can download it from DOI:10.6084/m9.figshare.11560110)

And the feuilleton was a new newspaper term for me! So now we’ve got an example, if you’re not sure what it means: digitisednewspapers.net/glossary/artic…. I can also recommend this great article about ‘foolitons’: jstor.org/stable/23646681

How do #digitizednewspapers collections begin? In 1999, the @KB_Nederland initiated the Roaring 20s and War & Revolution projects, in which 3 newspapers from the 1920s and 300k pages from the 1910s were digitised and OCR'd. Learn more at "The Atlas": digitisednewspapers.net/histories/delp…

Really pleased to contribute to this wonderful work by @mhbeals and @EmilyJLB and team @OceanicEx! An open access guide to openly licensed digitised newspapers around the world, so you don't have to figure out all the metadata schemas yourself when wanting to reuse them.

Newly available on the Library of Congress website are the newspapers edited & published by Frederick Douglass, who escaped slavery in 1838 and became a voice for abolitionists as a journalist, orator & author. More: loc.gov/item/prn-20-00…

Digitization results in digital objects often accessed in isolation, out of context. Awesome work @OceanicEx makes visible "relationships btw a database’s internal components, btw data & metadata among collections and btw the digital object & its physical predecessors." #access

"Además de útil este trabajo es intelectualmente esencial ya que reúne investigación bibliográfica (historias orales, documentación, etc) de cómo fueron construidas - qué decisiones se tomaron, por quién y por qué." (trad.)
