Patrick Sahle, Simone Kronenwett, Jonathan Blumtritt, Sustainability?! Four Paradigms for Humanities Data Centers
Research on digital humanities results not only in ‘data’ but more often in complex forms of presentation which could be called ‘resources’ and which should be maintained over a long period of time. Thus, generic data archives are not a comprehensive answer to all questions concerning sustainability of these resources. Instead, dedicated humanities data centers are needed to care for research data management, data preservation and curation and the presentational systems. The goals and tasks of these centers can be described according to institutional functions well known from our traditional information ecosystem: library, archive, museum and workshop.
