#digitisation — Public Fediverse posts

Indigenous Australian VRES Summer Report. Last week, it was great to share the summer research work of several Indigenous students from the QUT Faculty of Business and Law with our research partner Triple A First Nations Media and their chief executive Renita Anderson. Ryan Menner has been the very capable steward and partnership-builder behind this programme for a number of years. The research topics this year included

@konrad @internetarchive oh wow, this looks amazing! I need to figure out how to get in place something like this for my measuring.earh/minutes project

I recently had the privilege to attend a webinar where Briana Giasullo, librarian at Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, presented to the Consortium for History of Science, Technology and Medicine. She showed her #digitisation workflow for field notebooks & creating corrected OCR files via #AI & #Zooniverse. #BHL

It is also interesting to see how people spend significant time and effort to download digital facsimiles from academic repositories, edit every image, and upload them to the Internet Archive.

See, for example, scans of البلاغ الاسبوعي published in Cairo from 1926 onwards ( https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60578577 ). Scans of the copies held by the University of Tübingen are hosted by the University of Bonn: https://digitale-sammlungen.ulb.uni-bonn.de/ulbbnioa/periodical/pageview/7282062. Based on the position of tears and specks, I am pretty sure that these images are the source of https://archive.org/details/Elbalah-week/مجلة%20البلاغ%20الأسبوعي%20-%20العدد%20001/

@pseudo-isidore.bsky.social Does anyone know if there are efforts to restore access? Or is this to remain quietly abandoned, a loss too embarrassing for reporting? Please let us know thoughts from your discussion!

First go trying the new English GRO digital images system for birth and death certificates. Not a great result! Cropping + a tilted copy means I've been given a very incomplete copy of my granddad's birth certificate. Then a very laborious process contacting customer services. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #England #Yorkshire #Leeds #BMD #Digitization #Digitisation #DigitalImages #GRO #EnglishGRO #BirthCertificates

To ease you into the weekend, have a watch of this excellent #EverythingOpen #keynote by @sebchan Director and CEO of #ACMI, who covers the role of open technologies in practices such as #digitisation, #preservation, #curation, and re-interpretation, creating "the possibility of the museum as a physical and social interface to a physical and digitised archive".

We hope you enjoy this as much as we did!

Tech Is Helping Ruling Parties Create 'Perfect Electoral Rolls' as the EC Looks on

Recent investigations by news outlets show large-scale voter suppression is afoot at Bengaluru in Karnataka, where assembly elections will be held soon. If the EC is not held accountable now, soon it will be too late.
