We present a case study of a collaborative digital humanities project that was led by academic librarians and participated by IT specialists and international scholars. Through the project, we produced and published two open-access products – a bilingual dictionary of historical government official titles, and an online system for crowdsourcing translations. We also contributed metadata, from the dictionary, to an existing large digital humanities project. Whereas the dictionary fills a publication gap and a research need, the crowdsourcing system provides a digital research method for collaborative translations of specialized terms. During this process, we explored and undertook a variety of new roles, ranging from project leader, hybrid scholar to content creator and publisher. Our project demonstrates how academic librarians could dive deep in the realm of digital humanities and plunge into the life cycle of scholarly communication.

从馆藏策划到知识创造:探索大学图书馆员在数字人文研究中的新作用

我们将介绍一个由大学图书馆员牵头,IT专家和国际学者参与的数字化人文科学合作项目的案例研究。通过该项目,我们生产并发布了两个开放获取的产品–历史政府官称双语词典和用于众包翻译的在线系统。我们还从字典向现有的大型数字人文项目贡献了元数据。字典填补了出版空白和研究需求,而众包系统则为专门术语的协作翻译提供了一种数字研究方法。在此过程中,我们探索并担任了各种新角色,从项目负责人,混合学者到内容创建者和发布者。
