Join us as we celebrate Frederick Douglass' Birthday by taking part in the annual Douglass Day Transcribe-a-thon event organized by the Center for Black Digital Research at Penn State
What is Douglass Day?
Douglass Day is an annual holiday celebrated on February 14th, the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass. As Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, his family chose Valentine’s Day to commemorate his life. The holiday was established after Douglass’ passing in 1895, when influential activist Mary Church Terrell proposed a national holiday to honor his legacy. Douglass Day events were widespread in the early 20th century and served as inspiration for the creation of Black History Month. In 2017, a group at …

Behind the Scenes: Nicoletta Calzolari
In our 'Behind the Scenes' series, we introduce the people who work for and use our infrastructure. In the series, we feature pioneers, researchers, ambassadors, committee chairs, PhD students, and more. This month, one of CLARIN's pioneers, Nicoletta Calzolari, remembers the infrastructure's beginnings.
Please introduce yourself. What is your background?
After graduating in Philosophy, I started my career at the University of Pisa with a national ministerial grant in computational linguistics, a completely new field to me. I liked it a lot.

ChronoSpace: AI-assisted game-based flipped classroom in teaching History
Source: C2DH | Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History |
Reading time: 2 minutes
How can we integrate AI with game-based learning and flipped classroom to create an attractive university course on historical consciousness? ChronoSpace is a project aimed at achieving this goal by developing an AI-assisted mixed-reality cooperative game. Our goal is to enhance student engagement and learning by implicitly motivate and challenge them as players. This presentation will explore the concept and address the challenges associated with designing, developing, and implementing the game.
Apostolos Spanos is a professor of History at the University of Agder in Norway. His research and teaching are based on interdisciplinary approaches to history as a discipline and to historical evolution as a phenomenon. His interests lie in historical consciousness, the coinherence of historical times, modeling history, the use of AI in studying and teaching history, the use of games to study the past, and the study of innovation as a mode of historical existence and evolution. He has recently published the book Games of History: Games and Gaming as Historical Sources.

Reading time: 2 minutes
Monday, October 7, 2024 - 12:00pm
623 Williams Hall
Dr. Tajah Ebram will talk about her current work with The Black Bibliography Project (BBP). The BBP is creating a digital database of Black book history with the aim of revealing the dynamic social networks and aesthetic practices specific to Black print cultures in the U.S. During her talk, she will discuss her background in Black literary and cultural studies and how this informs her current work with the BBP. Her current research with the project is focused on developing and curating, in collaboration with graduate researchers, a corpus centering the print cultures of books authored by incarcerated Black writers and organizers of the late 20th century. The talk will explore the print cultures of Black prison movements while also attending to critical political, ethical and descriptive considerations involved in developing data about these works and writers.
Dr. Tajah Ebram is a cultural historian, teacher and community memory worker. She is currently the Black Studies Librarian at Rutgers University New Brunswick and the Rutgers lead for the Black Bibliography Project. Prior to her work at Rutgers, she was a Visiting Assistant Professor at Haverford College where she developed seminars around Black feminisms, carceral studies and Black environmentalism. In 2020, she completed her PhD in English at the University of Pennsylvania where she focused on Philly Black freedom movements through the lenses of oral history, digital storytelling, and material culture.

Saving Trove's digitised periodicals as PDFs
Source: Tim Sherratt |
Reading time: 1 minutes
I was recently contacted by a researcher who wanted to be able to automatically download the issues of a digitised periodical in Trove as PDFs. There was already a notebook in the GLAM Workbench that downloads the issues of a digitised newspaper as PDFs, but newspapers work differently to other digitised periodicals in Trove. While there was no corresponding notebook for other types of periodicals, all the necessary steps were documented in the Trove Data Guide, so it was just a matter of pulling together a few blocks of code.
There are three main steps:
get the nla.obj identifiers for all the periodical’s issues
get the number of pages in each issue
construct a url to download each issue as a PDF using the nla.obj identifier and the number of pages
Get issue identifiers
