The first version of HumaReC was launched in March, the 7th. Three months later, is the plateform visited enough ? Are we visible enough on the web ? What can we do to enhance the traffic on our webpage ? HumaReC is happy to share with you glimpses of answers, harvested from our web analytics data.
On the 7th of April, the H2020 project READ has published a news report presenting our project and our collaboration with Transkribus. We are very proud of this development: «A new model for Humanities research - collaboration with HumaReC».
It also makes mention of a French blog post written by Claire Clivaz in the Swiss newspaper Le Temps, where she is discussing about what the future jobs for post-doc in DH could be, underlying the Transkribus potential : «Et si les sciences humaines créaient de nouveaux métiers? Vers les 'DH curators'?» (Le Temps, 18 février 2017).
I had the great opportunity to participate last week at the international conference “Translators, copists and interpreters: Jews, Christians and Muslims and the transmission of the Bible in Arabic in the Middle Age”, 26-28 April in Cordoba.
