SSHRC Grant

I've received a SSHRC Grant for the coming year! I'm quite pleased about this - it will give me funds (shared with four co-applicants) to pursue developing the new Making Publics website into a RDF resource. In short, the work will examine how humanities research might be disseminated into the world of Linked Open Data using the standards and forms associated with the Resource Description Framework. For most humanists this sounds a bit technical - it is - but in short, it's a way of getting archival and humanistic research out into websites and other data formats.
