Enabling and Reusing Multilingual Citizen Contributions in the Archival Record

FAIN: HAA-269051-20

University of Texas at Austin (Austin, TX 78712-0100)
Allyssa Anne Guzman (Project Director: June 2019 to present)

Enabling multilingual citizen contributions to an existing open-source platform for transcribing and translating historical documents and adding these contributions to the archival record.

This project seeks $302,477 in support to enhance FromThePage (FtP), an open-source platform for the collaborative transcription, translation, and indexing of texts, with the intent to enable multilingual citizen contributions to DH activities (Part 1) and reuse these citizen contributions in the archival record (Part 2). The expected outcomes include platform restructuring to enable multilingual versions of FtP, a Spanish and Portuguese translation of the interface and user guides, enhanced support for object metadata and faceted browsing, additional export options to facilitate the use of machine-readable textual outputs in other digital scholarship tools, and workflows to incorporate citizen contributions into the archival and digital asset management system record.

Libraries Receive NEH Grant to Help Develop Multilingual Transcription (Blog Post)
Title: Libraries Receive NEH Grant to Help Develop Multilingual Transcription
Author: Travis Willmann
Abstract: A grant of over $300,000 from the National Endowment for the Humanities is going to help the University of Texas Libraries contribute to the customization of a Wikipedia-like platform for the collaborative transcription, translation and indexing of archival texts in non-English languages. The project – “Enabling and Reusing Multilingual Citizen Contributions in the Archival Record” – grew out of a need to provide more accessible digital scholarship platforms for non-English literate archival partners in Latin America. The initial phase of this project will provide an option for non-English literate communities to meaningfully engage and contribute to the Digital Humanities through the interface internationalization and translation of an open source digital scholarship platform.

Preservation and Ethical Re-Use of Crowdsourced Citizen Scholarship (Conference Paper/Presentation)
Title: Preservation and Ethical Re-Use of Crowdsourced Citizen Scholarship
Author: Albert A. Palacios
Author: Allyssa Guzman
Abstract: Cultural repositories are increasingly tapping into the collective expertise of an interested public via crowdsourcing to improve the intellectual accessibility of handwritten sources and nourish their archival records . However, few are discussing the subsequent preservation and ethical re-use of these citizen contributions in the archival record and scholarship. We do not consider citizen contributors as simply a “sourced crowd;” they are often experts in the subject matter represented in these primary sources, and their collective scholarship (i.e. transcriptions,translations, indexes) is worthy of preservation. Our goal is to configure workflows for the preservation of these collectively-produced resources. We believe that every individual who contributes to the interpretation and understanding of our collections should be given credit for their efforts in the archival record and in scholarship. Based on ethical and practical considerations, our aim is to develop use statements and citation guides for scholars re-using citizen contributions.

After the Transcript Symposium (Conference/Institute/Seminar)
Title: After the Transcript Symposium
Abstract: The virtually-held symposium, After the Transcription, brought project managers working on collaborative transcription projects into a community of practice. Participants in the symposium presented case studies from their work and then were guided in group discussions on topics such as the definition of a "meaningful" contribution, rights over transcriptions, crediting of student and citizen collaborators, and the incorporation of contributed work into institutional repositories.

La habilitación y atribución ética de contribuciones multilingües en la transcripción colaborativa de archivos (Conference Paper/Presentation)
Title: La habilitación y atribución ética de contribuciones multilingües en la transcripción colaborativa de archivos
Author: Albert A. Palacios
Abstract: Este proyecto surge como una respuesta al creciente llamado internacional de que debemos hacer más para promover y apoyar la diversidad cultural, lingüística y de conocimiento en el campo de las Humanidades Digitales y en la interpretación de archivos. Nuestro objetivo para emprender este trabajo es doble. Primeramente, queremos romper la barrera lingüística que las tecnologías creadas para trabajar fuentes manuscritas colaborativamente, que son principalmente anglocéntricas, presentan a los usuarios que solo pueden navegar plataformas en español y portugués. Recientemente, repositorios culturales ubicados en los Estados Unidos han estado utilizando cada vez más herramientas de “crowdsourcing” para conectar un público interesado a sus colecciones digitales, aprovechando la experiencia colectiva para mejorar la accesibilidad intelectual y nutrir los metadatos de fuentes manuscritas. Con el fin de proporcionar una vía más para que personas y comunidades que no puedan leer el inglés se involucren de manera significativa a las Humanidades Digitales, completamos la internacionalización y la traducción de la interfaz de una plataforma de código abierto llamada FromThePage (o “DeLaPágina” en español). FromThePage es una herramienta para la transcripción, traducción e indexación colaborativa de fuentes primarias, en particular aquellas que están escritas a mano y en que no se puede utilizar tecnologías de reconocimiento óptico de caracteres (OCR) para extraer el texto automáticamente.
