This project explores new ways of searching, organizing, preserving, and interacting with large information resources in the humanities and the social sciences. It involves the creation and support of a digital library of materials of significant international importance drawn from the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library and Digital Archives (which includes image, sound, video and textual data), and the encoding, annotation, and multi-modal linkage of a portion of the collection to develop state-of-the-art methods for search and retrieval. The goal is to establish methods and procedures that can be later applied to the full FDR collection, and to consider the best means to enable flexible and creative access to this important resource. The project involves, on the one hand, computer scientists with significant experience in the representation of and access to on-line data, together with historians who require sophisticated and intelligent access to on-line historical resources. Because we will apply techniques from several technical fields to data that is typical of the humanities, the project represents an important cross-disciplinary effort. Another benefit is the collaboration between two undergraduate liberal arts institutions, Marist College and Vassar College, and the potential to involve students from both institutions in cutting edge research.

该项目探索了搜索，组织，保存和与人文和社会科学的大型信息资源互动的新方法。它涉及创建和支持一个数字图书馆的材料具有重大的国际重要性，从富兰克林D。罗斯福图书馆和数字档案馆（其中包括图像，声音，视频和文本数据），以及部分收藏的编码，注释和多模式链接，以开发最先进的搜索和检索方法。其目标是建立方法和程序，可以在以后应用于完整的罗斯福收藏，并考虑最好的手段，使灵活和创造性地获得这一重要的资源。该项目一方面涉及在表示和访问联机数据方面具有丰富经验的计算机科学家，另一方面涉及需要复杂和智能访问联机历史资源的历史学家。因为我们将把来自几个技术领域的技术应用于典型的人文数据，所以该项目代表了一个重要的跨学科努力。另一个好处是两个本科文科院校，圣母学院和瓦萨学院之间的合作，并有可能让两个机构的学生参与尖端研究。
