Proceedings of the 15th Conference on Knowledge Organization WissOrg'17 of theGerman Chapter of the International Society for Knowledge Organization (ISKO),30th November - 1st December 2017, Freie Universität Berlin
Wissensorganisation is the name of a series of biennial conferences /
workshops with a long tradition, organized by the German chapter of the
International Society of Knowledge Organization (ISKO). The 15th conference in
this series, held at Freie Universität Berlin, focused on knowledge
organization for the digital humanities. Structuring, and interacting with,
large data collections has become a major issue in the digital humanities. In
these proceedings, various aspects of knowledge organization in the digital
humanities are discussed, and the authors of the papers show how projects in
the digital humanities deal with knowledge organization.Wissensorganisation ist der Name einer Konferenzreihe mit einer langjährigen
Tradition, die von der Deutschen Sektion der International Society of
Knowledge Organization (ISKO) organisiert wird. Die 15. Konferenz dieser
Reihe, die an der Freien Universität Berlin stattfand, hatte ihren Schwerpunkt
im Bereich Wissensorganisation und Digital Humanities. Die Strukturierung von
und die Interaktion mit großen Datenmengen ist ein zentrales Thema in den
Digital Humanities. In diesem Konferenzband werden verschiedene Aspekte der
Wissensorganisation in den Digital Humanities diskutiert, und die Autoren der
einzelnen Beiträge zeigen, wie die Digital Humanities mit Wissensorganisation
umgehen
DHBeNeLux : incubator for digital humanities in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg
Digital Humanities BeNeLux is a grass roots initiative to foster knowledge networking and dissemination in digital humanities in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. This special issue highlights a selection of the work that was presented at the DHBenelux 2015 Conference by way of anthology for the digital humanities currently being done in the Benelux area and beyond. The introduction describes why this grass roots initiative came about and how DHBenelux is currently supporting community building and knowledge exchange for digital humanities in the Benelux area and how this is integrating regional digital humanities in the larger international digital humanities environment
LODE: Linking Digital Humanities Content to the Web of Data
Numerous digital humanities projects maintain their data collections in the
form of text, images, and metadata. While data may be stored in many formats,
from plain text to XML to relational databases, the use of the resource
description framework (RDF) as a standardized representation has gained
considerable traction during the last five years. Almost every digital
humanities meeting has at least one session concerned with the topic of digital
humanities, RDF, and linked data. While most existing work in linked data has
focused on improving algorithms for entity matching, the aim of the
LinkedHumanities project is to build digital humanities tools that work "out of
the box," enabling their use by humanities scholars, computer scientists,
librarians, and information scientists alike. With this paper, we report on the
Linked Open Data Enhancer (LODE) framework developed as part of the
LinkedHumanities project. With LODE we support non-technical users to enrich a
local RDF repository with high-quality data from the Linked Open Data cloud.
LODE links and enhances the local RDF repository without compromising the
quality of the data. In particular, LODE supports the user in the enhancement
and linking process by providing intuitive user-interfaces and by suggesting
high-quality linking candidates using tailored matching algorithms. We hope
that the LODE framework will be useful to digital humanities scholars
complementing other digital humanities tools
QR Code Posters: Contructing, Consuming, and Conserving America 2011
QR code posters created for Contructing, Consuming, and Conserving America 2011 Gala Event. The posters feature content from the Cleveland Historical mobile application, created by the Center for Public History and Digital Humanities. Participants in the Contructing, Consuming, and Conserving America (CCC) grant project constructed stories for the app. The posters were printed and mounted on 24 x 24 foam core and presented on easels at the closing CCC event, where attendees were encouraged to use the QR codes to visit the mobile website, view content, and download the app

Evolutionary Subject Tagging in the Humanities; Supporting Discovery and Examination in Digital Cultural Landscapes
In this paper, the authors attempt to identify problematic issues for subject tagging in the humanities, particularly those associated with information objects in digital formats. In the third major section, the authors identify a number of assumptions that lie behind the current practice of subject classification that we think should be challenged. We move then to propose features of classification systems that could increase their effectiveness. These emerged as recurrent themes in many of the conversations with scholars, consultants, and colleagues. Finally, we suggest next steps that we believe will help scholars and librarians develop better subject classification systems to support research in the humanities.NEH Office of Digital Humanities: Digital Humanities Start-Up Grant (HD-51166-10
