Projects


The NLW programme in digital collections leads, or is a partner in, a number of collaborative e-Research projects. Current projects include:

 

Welsh experience of World War One 1914-1918

Funded by JISC, this is a mass digitization project in collaboration with the special collections and archives of Wales to digitize the hidden sources about the impact of WW1 on all aspects of Welsh life: language, culture, politics, and community.

 

The Snows of Yesteryear

Funded by the AHRC Landscape and Environment Programme, this research Network will investigate resilience and vulnerability to extreme weather in Wales, in collaboration with climate scientists and performance researchers.

 

Network for Digital Methods in the Arts and Humanities (NeDiMAH)

European Science Foundation Research Networking Programme documenting and classifying the practice of digital humanities across Europe. NeDiMAH builds on the AHRC ICT Methods Network to document how academic researchers engage with digital content, and the emergence of new approaches to linking, annotating, and using digital content.

 

Linking Parliamentary Records through Metadata (LIPARM)

Funded by JISC, the project will link the digital archives of parliamentary material, both historic and contemporary, by creating a unified metadata scheme for all of its key elements.

This project will develop a crowdsourcing platform for placenames of Wales, working in partnership with Galaxy Zoo, the People’s Collection, Wales, and the University of Wales.
