One of the long-term goals of the Research Library at the Leibniz Institute for Educational Media | Georg Eckert Institute (GEI) is to make the full-texts of the historical holdings in its unique textbook collection accessible to researchers. This project advances that objective by systematically expanding the Institute’s digital textbook library, GEI-Digital, through the digitisation of German-language religious education textbooks and reading primers dating from the period 1618 to 1870, which will make a valuable contribution to research into the history, origins and impact of religious education. In order to make source material suitable for subsequent use by researchers, the project is working in cooperation with the Zentrum für Digitalität und Philologie (ZPD) at the University of Würzburg and is using new machine learning processes in the field of text recognition. As no directory, in the form of a biobibliography, yet exists of those closely involved with producing textbooks, the project will automatically identify authors, editors and publishers using named entity recognition (NER). By combining named-entity linking with the Gemeinsame Normdatei (GND) and by adding information from other databases, the project will create a knowledge base (Wikibase) to serve as the foundation for a directory of persons involved in educational history research.

莱布尼茨教育媒体研究所(GEI)研究图书馆的长期目标之一是使其独特的教科书收藏中的历史文献全文供研究人员查阅。该项目通过对1618年至1870年期间的德语宗教教育教科书和读物进行数字化，系统地扩大了该研究所的数字教科书图书馆GEI-Digital，从而推进了这一目标，这将对宗教教育的历史、起源和影响的研究作出宝贵贡献。为了使原始材料适合研究人员以后的使用，该项目正在与维尔茨堡大学数字和哲学中心合作，并在文本识别领域使用新的机器学习方法。由于还没有以生物书目的形式存在与教科书制作密切相关的人的目录，该项目将使用命名实体识别(NER)自动识别作者、编辑和出版商。通过将命名实体链接与Gomeiname Normdati(GND)相结合，并通过添加来自其他数据库的信息，该项目将创建一个知识库(Wikibase)，作为参与教育史研究的人员名录的基础。
