Abstract

The Centre for Computing in the Humanities at King's College London is a research centre that conducts highly collaborative research projects with partners from the academic community and cultural heritage organizations primarily in Europe but also further a field in North America, Asia, Africa and Australia. These projects encompass disciplines such as art history, social history, linguistics, literature studies and music. These projects frequently result in the creation of digital resources utilizing a variety of technologies and methods. They provide an opportunity for CCH to research issues concerning the digitization, design, implementation and delivery of such resources. This paper focuses on issues surrounding the compilation of metadata and the effects that these have by focusing of three case study projects.
