CLARIN-NL is pleased to welcome to the Consortium two new members: Utrecht University Library and the Netherlands Institute for Art History (RKD).
As part of the Call 4 project Rembench, the RKD will contribute to the development of a digital workbench for Rembrandt research. A number of resources centred around the life and art of Rembrandt van Rijn will be connected to an initial version of the Rembrandt Documents (RemDoc) database as well as with a standard university library catalogue.
The Utrecht University Library has been awarded a grant to become a CLARIN Data Provider. As part of the CLARIN infrastructure the University Library will provide its users with digital files of printed source material. Moreover, the library will provide access to the so-called Igitur Archive, which contains all scholarly output from Utrecht University. This project will be completed under supervision of Johan Tilstra, project manager Innovation & Development at the University Library.
