最近在数据库数字化方面进行了大量投资，例如记录爱尔兰：议会、人民和移民（DIPPAM）项目，该项目以各种方式与爱尔兰的历史和侨民相关，自二十世纪后期以来，爱尔兰一直是学术密集的领域（例如，参见米勒，移民和流亡者：爱尔兰和爱尔兰人逃往北美。牛津：牛津大学出版社，1985； 奥沙利文，《爱尔兰世界：历史、遗产、身份》卷。 1-6。莱斯特：莱斯特大学出版社，1992；菲茨杰拉德和兰姆金，爱尔兰历史中的移民，1607-2007。伦敦：帕尔格雷夫·麦克米伦，2008 年；米勒，爱尔兰和爱尔兰裔美国。文化、阶级和跨大西洋移民。都柏林：野外日档案，2008 年）。由于此类资源主要是为历史研究和相关学科的学者设计的，因此它们作为吸引公众受众（特别是教育和遗产部门）的工具的适用性仍有待测试。在本章中，我们将讨论如何创建此类数据库并随后将其用于更广泛的学术和非学术用途，重点关注两个相关的数字举措，即卑尔根大学目前正在进行的爱尔兰英语通讯语料库 (CORIECOR) 项目和考文垂大学的移民数字化经验：互连信件集合的开发 (DEM) 项目。
There has been considerable recent investment in the digitization of databases, like theDocumenting Ireland:Parliament,People and Migration(DIPPAM) project, that relate in various ways to the history and Diaspora of Ireland, which has been an area of intensive scholarship since the later twentieth century (see, for example, Miller, Emigrants and Exiles: Ireland and the Irish Exodus to North America. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1985; O’Sullivan, The Irish World Wide: History, Heritage, Identity, Vols. 1–6. Leicester: Leicester University Press, 1992; Fitzgerald and Lambkin, Migration in Irish History, 1607–2007. London: Palgrave Macmillan, 2008; Miller, Ireland and Irish America. Culture, Class, and Transatlantic Migration. Dublin: Field Day Files, 2008). As such resources were largely designed for academics in historical studies and allied disciplines, their applicability as tools to engage public audiences (particularly in the education and heritage sectors) remains to be tested. In this chapter, we discuss how databases like these can be created and subsequently exploited for a much wider variety of academic and non-academic uses by focusing on two related digital initiatives, namely, theCorpus of Irish English Correspondence(CORIECOR) project currently being undertaken at the University of Bergen and Coventry University’sDigitising Experiences of Migration:The Development of Interconnected Letter Collections(DEM) project.
