See what others have done in the Example Gallery. 18thConnect - TypeWright TypeWright1 is a tool for correcting the text-version of a document made up of page images. These text-versions are crucially necessary: they are what enables full-text searching, datamining, preserving, and curating2 texts of historical importance. Right now, the text running behind the page images of these texts has been mechanically typed,3 leaving behind errors that need to be corrected by human eyes and hands. Our contracts with Gale and Proquest allow any person or group who corrects a text to be given that text when finished correcting it to use as they wish. We will give you the document in either plain text or TEI-encoded formats, or both, for texting mining or to build a digital edition that can be submitted to 18thConnect for peer review.

Ce changement est principalement contrôlé par les spécialistes de la technologie qui imposent leurs normes et leurs logiques au public. Histoire et esquisse de définition
