It allows searching based on dif-ferent attributes (emotion, gender, age group), com-pilation and publishing of subsets (albums).Publication Management (PubMan)A solution designed to address the management, the dissemination and the long-term archiving of publica-tion data (formal/informal publications, grey litera-ture and supplementary material) of a research organisation.Contact eSciDoc Solutions Ulla TschidaHead of Service ManagementMax Planck Digital Librarytschida@mpdl.mpg.dephone +49 (0)89 38602-222Last Update: September 2008.

The infrastructure provides a set of essential services and building blocks to enable effective solution development.Approach to eSciDoc SolutionsSolutions are developed to address specific research scenarios while improving the eSciDoc infrastructure additionally.Solutions …· follow a user-centered development by close cooperation with pilots and partners from the Max Planck Society· address specific research questions· manage and visualize research data and facilitate cooperation· implement customizable workflows, settings and graphical user interfaces for re-useWhat is ViRR?Virtueller Raum ReichsrechtA digital collection and cooperative working en-vironment for various legal artifacts of the period of the Holy Roman Empire, based on the infra-structure of eSciDoc.The basis of ViRR is a collection of 15 digitized works (more than 16,000 pictures), which can be structurally marked up via an editing interface. Further on, it is planned to extend the collection successively by the integration of transcriptions and additional external sources (e.g. lexical tools).Functionalities of ViRR· Browsing within the works of ViRRBrowsing the content· Search within all bibliographic and descriptive metadata· Online editing interface for privileged users to gather structural metadata about the digitized works
