Abstract

The material aims to introduce the Bibliographical Data Working Group – part of the Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities (DARIAH-EU) – and to feature projects fulfilled by this group. This working group since 2019 brings together specialists (as of today: 38 researchers) from a number of different countries and the main goals of the group are to foster the development of cooperation between bibliographies and serve as a platform for knowledge exchange aimed at bringing together creators of bibliographical data, scholars interested in using those resources in data-driven research, and theorists of bibliography and documentation. In the presentation two projects are described in detail: 1. the report “An analysis of the current bibliographic data landscape in the humanities: Bibliodata curation, research, and collaboration; 2. The project “Multilingual encyclopaedic dictionary of types of documents”. The purpose of the article is not only to describe these projects but above all to invite Congress members to collaborate on them.

Summary

Introduction

DARIAH-EU is an acronym of Digital Research Infrastructure for the Arts and Humanities 2 It is a network of people, expertise, information, knowledge, content, methods, tools, and technologies useful to enhance and support digitally-­e­ nabled research and teaching across the Arts and Humanities. This network integrates researchers and projects from across Europe, enabling transnational and transdisciplinary approaches. The idea of the BiblioData WG results from the ongoing cooperation between Czech Literary Bibliography 3 (Institute of Czech Literature, Czech Academy of Sciences), and Polish Literary. Bibliography 4 (Institute of Literary Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences), that have been working closely on joint projects in recent years. We believe that there is a need for knowledge exchange in the field of bibliographic data in the humanities and a DARIAH-EU Working Group should be the best as a platform for data providers and researchers working with bibliographical data
