Lovely to see the infrastructure behind archival + library collections. Most people don't realize the intense human labor, large funding, and continuous institutional commitment it takes to preserve and make them accessible.

Fantastic initiative--context is everything! "Data cannot be analyzed responsibly without deep knowledge of its social and historical context, provenance, and limitations."

📣 The CFP for“Real-Time History: Engaging with Living Archives and Temporal Multiplicities,” our March 2025 Digital Humanities/Digital History conference, is still open! Send in your proposals— more details here: ghi-dc.org/events/event/d…

Wonderful to see this open-access out in the world! I've contributed an article: "Along, Against, Beyond Silences in Colonial Archives" degruyter.com/document/doi/1… Congrats and thanks, @RojasCastroA and Tobias Kraft !

Now with more than a bit of "spare" time, finally getting around to preparing a @WHGazetteer contribution for the Digging into Early Colonial Mexico project (DECM), for Patricia Murrieta, Bruno Martins, et al. cc Werner Stangl , Gimena del Rio Riande . Maybe that LatAm gazetteer is not far off?

This sounds awesome! 😍 Knowing *how much* of humanity's knowledge and data is "hidden" and inaccessible to LLMs, I'm amazed at the naivety of those who think that generative AI generates...comprehensive or representative or substantial stuff.

People assign hidden meanings and metaphors behind "the Archive" because often archival institutions are housed in derelict asylums, old hospitals, abandoned monasteries, even abattoirs... ...while it all comes down to neglect, devaluing, lack of funding & commitment.

Wonderful essay by Ruth Ahnert & colleagues on using network analysis not only for locating connections among entities, but also for foregrounding the archival infrastructure that shapes our access to the past. Alongside other excellent case studies here: muse.jhu.edu/issue/53153

More digitization doesn't mean more access--it means more fragile information at risk. "By empowering libraries and archives legally, culturally, and financially, we can safeguard the public’s ability to maintain access to our cultural history and our digital future." ⬇️⬇️⬇️
