Digitization of the medieval manuscripts from the collections Hdschr. and Mss.Diez. of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin - Preußischer Kulturbesitz (SBB)

当前项目的目标是创建和更新来自柏林馆藏Hdschr的267份中世纪手稿的图像和元数据。和Mss.Diez。共计约7万张图片。这两种藏品都具有较高的科学意义，但由于它们的历史渊源，它们的整体结构有很大不同。Hdschr。一方面，收藏包括国家图书馆战后收购的文物，直到1997年。因此，它的抄本涵盖了各种各样的文本传统、材料特征和出处。另一方面，Diez的手稿收藏-作为15,000卷Bibliotheca diziana的一部分-是Heinrich Friedrich von Diez（1751-1817）的科学语言学兴趣的物理结果。然而，这两个系列都是一个封闭的语料库，而且可以通过最近印刷的目录获得。因此，该项目将尽可能将高分辨率图像和广泛的元数据结合起来，使科学研究能够获得有关手稿。图像数字化将由SBB数字化中心进行。每件物品都将接受单独的评估，以确定合适的复制方式（扫描仪与照相技术-不同的开口角度等）。因此，使用Grazer Buchtisch上的摄影设备将产生4万多张图像。通过将图像及其元数据集成到SBB的演示平台（“Digitalisierte Sammlungen”），将确保图像的适当演示以及图像及其元数据的长期可重用性。在这种环境中，项目结果将按照IIIF标准使用持久url在公共领域中呈现。在项目中，将在SBB的it基础设施中获取手稿的书目和详细的结构元数据。此外，这些信息也将在特定的国家手稿门户网站上提供。在它完成后，这将是Handschriftenportal。在此之前，Manuscripta Mediaevalia将作为数字化手稿的中央登记处。到项目结束时，所有相关描述将在网上全文提供，包括对各自数字化对象的参考。整个项目的实现以及数字化中心的特定工作顺序将是一个规划和管理问题。最后，无论是图像数字化的结果，还是数据采集，都将进行彻底的质量控制。

The goal of the current project is the creation and up-to-date presentation of the images and metadata of 267 medieval manuscripts from the Berlin collections Hdschr. and Mss.Diez., amounting to a total of about 70,000 images. Both collections are of comparably high scientific significance, however their overall structure is quite different due to their historical origins. The Hdschr.-collection on the one hand comprises the post-war acquisitions of the Staatsbibliothek Preußischer Kulturbesitz until 1997. Accordingly its codices cover a great variety of textual traditions, material characteristics and provenances. The Diez manuscript-collection on the other hand – being part of the 15,000 volume Bibliotheca Dieziana – is the physical result of the scientific philological interests of Heinrich Friedrich von Diez (1751-1817). Nevertheless both series represent a closed corpus each and moreover are already accessible through recent printed catalogues. Hence the project will make the manuscripts in question accessible to scientific research in the best possible combination of high resolution images and extensive metadata.Image digitization will be carried out by the digitization center of the SBB. Each item will be subject to an individual evaluation in order to determine the appropriate way of reproduction (scanner vs. photo-technology – different opening angles etc.). As a result more than 40,000 images will be produced using photographic equipment on a Grazer Buchtisch. The appropriate presentation as well as the long-term-reusability of the images and their metadata will be ensured by their integration into the SBB's presentation platform („Digitalisierte Sammlungen“). In this environment the project results will be presented in the public domain in accordance with the IIIF standard using persistent URLs.Within the project bibliographic and detailed structural metadata on the manuscripts will be captured within the IT-infrastructure of the SBB. In addition, this information will also be available in a specific national manuscript portal. On its completion this will be the Handschriftenportal. Until then Manuscripta Mediaevalia will serve as a central registry for digitized manuscripts. By the end of the project, all relevant descriptions will be available online in full text including references to the respective digitized objects.The realisation of the project as a whole as well as the particular sequence of work in the digitization center will be an issue of planning and management. Finally, both the results of the image digitization as well as the data-capturing will undergo thorough quality control.
