Digital Collection German Colonialism - Establishment of a digital collection of texts and integration in the research Infrastructure CLARIN-D

该提案旨在建立德国殖民主义数字馆藏（Digitale Sammlung Deutscher Kolonialismus； DSDK），该馆藏将以不来梅国家和大学图书馆（Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek不来梅；SuUB不来梅）和大学图书馆Johann Christian Senckenberg Frankfurt/Main （UB Frankfurt）为基础。OCR全文将被整合到联邦教育和研究部的虚拟研究基础设施CLARIN-D中（柏林-勃兰登堡科学与人文学院；BBAW）。通过这个项目，我们计划首次建立一个关于德国殖民时期（1884 - 1919）的数字收藏。这个集合将符合不同学科的理论问题和计算机辅助方法的要求。这个科学上深刻的殖民地文本集合满足了科学领域内的迫切需求。提交的数字化图像通常是哥特字体，将用光学字符识别（OCR）进行处理。全文将改进和集成在CLARIN-D。这将促进计算机辅助科学方法的应用。德国殖民主义的数字收藏将在不莱梅大学和法兰克福大学（http://brema.suub.uni-bremen.de/, http://sammlungen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/）的现代在线门户网站上展示，这些网站将实例化所有预期的特征；例如：通过标题、出版年份和结构元数据访问，以及通过OCR全文搜索功能。联合软件库保证在两个库中都可以搜索标题的结构化元数据。标准化的接口保证了与元数据门户的连接，如德意志数字图书馆、欧洲图书馆，以及进一步相关的虚拟专业图书馆和目录。我们将遵守德国研究基金会（DFG）的所有数字化实践标准。

This proposal aims at the establishment of a Digital Collection of German Colonialism (Digitale Sammlung Deutscher Kolonialismus; DSDK), which shall base on the holdings of the State and University Library Bremen (Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Bremen; SuUB Bremen) and the University Library Johann Christian Senckenberg Frankfurt/Main (UB Frankfurt). The OCR fulltexts will be integrated in the virtual research infrastructure CLARIN-D of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (with participation of the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities; BBAW). With this project we plan to set up a digital collection on the German colonial period (1884 - 1919) for the first time. This collection will comply with requirements of theoretical problems and computer aided methodologies of different disciplines. This scientifically profound collection of colonial texts fulfills an urgent desideratum within the sciences. The digitized images, which submittals are quite often in Gothic type, will be processed with an optical character recognition (OCR). The fulltext will be improved and integrated in CLARIN-D. This will facilitate the application of computer aided scientific methodologies. The Digital Collection of German Colonialism will be presented in modern onlineportals at the SuUB Bremen and the UB Frankfurt (http://brema.suub.uni-bremen.de/, http://sammlungen.ub.uni-frankfurt.de/) that instantiate all expected features; e.g.: access by title, year of publication and structural metadata as well as search functionality via OCR fulltext. The joint software base guarantees that structural metadata of the titles are searchable in both libraries. Standardized interfaces guarantee the connection to metadata portals like Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek, the Europeana as well as to further relevant virtual specialized libraries and catalogues. We will comply with all standards of the Praxisrichtlinien Digitalisierung of the German Research Foundation (DFG).
