The Wellcome Library has launched a new blog (
wellcomedigitallibrary.blogspot.com/), centered on the development of the Wellcome Digital Library. The blog will be a "a real-time progress report, discussion outlet, and notification area", and will complement the Library's other blogs by providing more specific and technical information related to the Library's pilot programme and continued development of the digital library.
Topics to be covered include:
- What will be digitised, and how the content will be of use to researchers.
- How we will facilitate research activity, learning, and discovery.
- Logistics of digitisation and workflows.
- Metadata.
- Long-term data management.
- Delivery formats, speeds, and functions.
