Presenting the Records of Historical Decision Making

February 2019

The most recent Negotiated Texts Network workshop took place in Pembroke College on Wednesday 27 February. Thanks to additional funding from a Knowledge Exchange grant, the network was able to benefit from the presence of a number of US participants.

Speakers and projects:

  • Neal Millikan, Adams Papers Editorial Project

  • Michael Pidd, The Digital Humanities Institute

  • Alexander von Lünen, Hansard at Huddersfield

  • Ida Nijenhuis, REPUBLIC

  • Kathleen Richman, LLMC

  • Fraser Dallachy, Historical Thesaurus of English

  • Julie Silverbrook, ConSource

  • Stan Swim, Bill of Rights Institute

  • Nicholas Cole, Quill

A number of common themes emerged throughout the day:

  • The evolution of projects to focus on end-user needs

  • The challenges and opportunities of technology

  • The constraints of the current funding environment
