British Library's @UntoldLives: 'India Office catalogue records added to [the National Archive's] Discovery platform' - they're accessible while the BL's Explore Archives and Manuscripts catalogue is out of action. Nice work Nicolas, Alex and Karen!

Last chance to share your experiences with managing collections records enhanced by crowdsourcing or AI / machine learning! Go on, my last minute friends!

[Digital Scholarship @BL_DigiSchol]

Our survey is extended to April 30!

We're keen to hear from projects that 'failed' to integrate #crowdsourced or #MachineLearning #AI enhanced collections records, are still in progress or 'completed' a long time ago, and from @Transkribus @FromThePage @the_zooniverse projects

Re-evaluating the status of prints @britishlibrary - fully funded Collaborative Doctoral Studentship from 1 Oct 2024 to research provenance, changing status and visibility of about 500 books of prints. Great opportunity to work with @BL_prints.

Our thanks to everyone who's already shared their experiences with integrating enriched collections data with digital collections platforms! We have responses from Europe, the UK, US, and we're keen to hear from Asian and African projects

What happens after a project has data enriched by crowdsourcing and/or machine learning/AI? Does the data end up in a collections management system, or sit on a drive somewhere? Share your experiences with successes and failures in ingesting enriched data
