Research on Digital Humanities (DH) has been boosted due to the investment in technology for developing access and interaction tools for handling Humanities and Heritage data. The availability of these tools lowers the distance between DH…
Although various visual interfaces for digital libraries have been developed in prototypical systems, very few of these visual approaches have been integrated into today's digital libraries. In this position paper we argue that this is most…
Gaps and requirements for multi-modal interfaces for humanities can be explored by observing the configuration of real-world environments and the tasks of visitors within them compared to digital environments. Examples include stores,…
There is a growing relationship between academic libraries and cloud computing. Therefore, understanding the beginnings and the current use of cloud base services in libraries is important. This will help understand the factors that…
User models for recommender systems (RecSys) typically assume stable preferences, similarity-based relevance, and session-bounded interactions -- assumptions derived from high-volume consumer contexts. This paper investigates these…
Archives are an important source of study for various scholars. Digitization and the web have made archives more accessible and led to the development of several time-aware exploratory search systems. However these systems have been…
