What type of content and how much can be digitised?

What type of content?

  1. Sources

    Sources we would consider would be:

    • On medieval and early modern British history.
    • If primary sources, those of a broad significance beyond the purely local.
    • If secondary sources, works of enduring reference, such as calendars of sources or works of compilation and record. BHO would not ordinarily include works of interpretation and synthesis, such as scholarly monographs or periodical literature.
  2. Materials

    We would consider many different types of material, including (but not only) printed texts, datasets and maps.

  3. Formats

    We would consider:

    • physical volumes, with good print quality; or
    • works in any mainstream digital format.
  4. Copyright

    Prospective project partners must be in a position to grant BHO a non-exclusive, perpetual and worldwide license to reproduce the resource.

How much can be digitised?

The project configuration is such that it can be easily scaled up. We are confident that we could cater for most possible digitisation projects.
