Recent years have seen a transition from closed digital repositories to open data repositories. Interoperability has also become more important over time. Linked Open Data demonstrates the importance of standardized metadata and IIIF demonstrates the qualities of standardized image datasets. But what are the typical applications of these datasets? The talk provides an overview of this topic and shows the importance of the humanities in the digital domain, not only for research.

To explore these questions, we are pleased to announce a panel discussion that will feature renowned scholars such as Prof. Regine Hunziker-Rodewald (University of Strasbourg), and Andrei Aioanei (University of Strasbourg), as well as representatives from key institutions and schools, including the Bibliotheca Hertziana (Dr. Alexander Adamou), the British School at Rome (Prof. Raphaële Mouren), German Historical Institute in Rome (Dr. Jörg Hoernschemeyer) and the Swiss Institute (Dr. Maria Böhmer).
