DARIAH Theme 2018: Strategic Service Sustainability for DARIAH
In 2018, DARIAH focussed on the chronic problem of software and tool sustainability in the digital humanities, while also looking forward to the build phase of the DARIAH Marketplace for data, tools and services. Entitled ‘Strategic Service Sustainability for DARIAH’, the call attracted a high number of well articulated and competitive applications in the area of training, standardisation, datasets, geolocation and annotation services, thesauri and vocabularies, among others. After careful evaluation and consideration of all applications, the appointed Evaluation Committee for the 2018 DARIAH Theme decided to fund six projects.
