Collaborating at Speed: The Team Behind the Living Handbook of Digital Scholarly Editing

Digital scholarly editions open up new possibilities for accessing, analysing, and reusing cultural texts. At the same time, they require complex conceptual, technical, and legal decisions. Our upcoming three-day book sprint at the German Historical Institute in Paris (March 4-6, 2026) takes up these challenges: a group of established experts will collaboratively write a structured, practice-oriented guide covering all stages of creating a digital scholarly edition. The result will be published as a living handbook.

Before the sprint begins, we introduce the contributors, and organisers (in alphabetical order). Each presents themselves with three hashtags and a short statement highlighting their expertise and their perspective on digital scholarly editing.
