Not only for libraries and archives but also for research institutes the warranty of permanent and effective access to very heterogeneous research data is a big challenge at the present time. Only by using international standards it will be possible to realize shared access in combination with varying options for analysing these data in a form which really meets the interest of all involved parties. With the formats of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) and the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) we possess standards which are prepared for these tasks. Both provide detailed structures for the recording of data and metadata. By connecting these records with authority files we shall be able to open up new ways of approaching our cultural heritage. Especially the metadata section of MEI for the first time offers opportunities to register sheet music in a depth that allows scholarly debates without loosing compatability to the cataloging results of librarians. By close cooperation with all agents which are active in this field the project wants to develop a re-usable model for indexing performance material and other corresponding documents by using the holdings of the Detmold Court Theatre in the 19th Century (1825-1875) as an example, which are transmitted in an exceptionally comprehensive way. The user shall have access to the individual objects not only through the indexing data of the librarians but also by making the various contexts of these objects accessible. Constructing an interconnected network of data with these different types of documents will allow new forms of multi-faceted research in the field of court-theatre activities in the 19th century. In the second phase of the project applied here, the development of the MEI-based model (which started in 2014) shall be expanded, reviewed and specified by completing the basic recording of this collection as well as by continuing the work of a more thorough and exemplary indexing of some of these holdings. For testing and broadening the model a few selected materials from other libraries shall be included in the indexing process, too. The potentials of this new ways of cataloging which tries to connect the needs of librarians and scholars shall be illustrated by combining the indexing model with new forms of visualization in a way that will promote further interest in this model. Additionally, the acceptance of this model should be forwarded by providing tools for data entry and data conversion as well as by intensively teaching or discussing the model within the Digital Humanities. From the start, all these activities are done in cooperation with librarians and scholars in order to allow a re-use of the results (model and visualization) when similar holdings are concerned. Finally, the advantages of this approach for research in the field of the cultural institution 'court theatre' shall be demonstrated by combining it with extended forms of authority files or controlled vocabularies.

不仅对于图书馆和档案馆，而且对于研究机构来说，保证永久和有效地获取非常不同的研究数据目前是一个巨大的挑战。只有使用国际标准，才有可能实现共享获取，并结合各种选择，以真正符合所有有关各方利益的形式分析这些数据。有了文本编码倡议(TEI)和音乐编码倡议(MEI)的格式，我们拥有了为这些任务准备的标准。两者都提供了记录数据和元数据的详细结构。通过将这些记录与权威档案联系起来，我们将能够开辟处理我们文化遗产的新途径。特别是MEI的元数据部分，第一次提供了深入登记乐谱的机会，允许进行学术辩论，而不会失去与图书馆员编目结果的兼容性。通过与活跃在这一领域的所有机构的密切合作，该项目希望以德特莫尔德宫廷剧院在19世纪(1825-1875年)的藏品为例，开发一个可重复使用的模型，用于编制表演材料和其他相应文件的索引，这些资料以一种特别全面的方式传递。用户不仅应通过图书馆员的索引数据访问各个对象，而且还应使这些对象的各种上下文可访问。利用这些不同类型的文件建立一个相互关联的数据网络，将使19世纪法院-剧院活动领域的新形式的多方面研究成为可能。在这里应用的项目的第二阶段，应通过完成这一收藏的基本记录以及继续对其中一些藏品进行更全面和示范的索引工作，扩大、审查和具体说明基于MEI的模式的开发(始于2014年)。为了测试和扩展模型，从其他图书馆选择的一些材料也应包括在索引过程中。这种试图连接图书馆员和学者需求的新编目方法的潜力将通过将索引模型与新的可视化形式相结合来说明，这种方式将促进对这一模型的进一步兴趣。此外，应该通过提供数据输入和数据转换的工具以及在数字人文学科中深入讲授或讨论这一模式来推动对这一模式的接受。从一开始，所有这些活动都是与图书馆员和学者合作进行的，以便在涉及类似藏书时重新使用结果(模型和可视化)。最后，通过将这种方法与扩展形式的权威档案或受控词汇表相结合，展示这种方法在文化机构“宫廷剧场”领域研究的优势。
