Communities

A community of communities

The DIGHUMLAB infrastructure was originally since 2012 based on several research communities. Most of these have been closed down and other communities have been established, building on the work and experiences of these original communities. 

NetLab

NetLab would obtain stable copies of web materials in versions useful to specific research. Materials could come from a web archive or from the online web

DIGETIK

DIGETIK was a forum consisting of information on ethical challenges in digital research within the humanities and social sciences

KB Labs

KB Labs combine the library’s digital cultural heritage collections and research with the newest methods within machine learning.

Active communities
