Digital Editions, Start to Finish

Dates: May 12th to May 15th, 2025

Instructor: Laura Mandell

Location: TBA

Description: 

In this class, students will be introduced to the DigEd system that allows them to create digital editions beginning with a TEI document. A basic knowledge of TEI encoding is necessary: students will be given the TEI rules for using the DigEd system, and then shown how to transform them into HTML pages using oXygen and an XSLT and CSS that are part of the DigEd system. Participants will be taught the principles of HTML, CSS, and XPath so that they can read and alter the files in the DigEd system to suit their needs; they will be shown how to put the edition up online, as well as how to load it into and retrieve it from LEAF Commons for enhancements. 

Intended Audience:

Students and faculty who have begun encoding their documents in TEI and would like to publish them.
