@lauramorreale.bsky.socialOh I'm so excited to hear what you have found! Collaboration is the best.
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialExcited to report on some work I did with @sims-mss.bsky.social & some tough-to-read but very rewarding historical sources. Come hear me talk about transcription tools now at our disposal, & what is required to use them (hint: it's not computer fairy dust...) www.library.upenn.edu/events/schoe...
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialYay! Let me know if you want to chat about some of the bumps we encountered getting our funds disbursed…

@lauramorreale.bsky.sociallol. just wait til you consider having your gutters cleaned "a gift to yourself"
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialThat was the goal! Glad it is of interest.
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialHere is a video by Magda Teter that talks about some of these issues: middleagesforeducators.princeton.edu/medieval-blo...
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialno, it's a completely different term (capitata), but the idea that something is edged or rimmed in a precious (aka) expensive material seems to be something people keep track of.
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialWhat about something that is rimmed or bordered? Like, a marble bowl rimmed with metal or some other precious material? This is a description I find ALOT in my inventories, although it tends to be about textiles that are "bordered" meaning they have trim or embroidery on the edges.
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialSigh. The stories I could tell,
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialThis question has been asked many times, here & on Twitter. It seems that librarians have the answer (essentially, open access; no one seems willing or able to fight for it. It needs to become someone’s cause celebre-most independent scholars have a hard enough time getting a modicum of respect, tbh

@lauramorreale.bsky.social@lauramorreale.bsky.socialThank you, MLA!
@lauramorreale.bsky.socialI have been writing/talking about this for about a decade now. Here is a simple way to back up/document at least some of your digital work. One thing to remember, however: a database IS NOT a book, so we need to build preservation structures that acknowledge that difference. digitalhumanitiesddp.com
