The value of cultural data has increased significantly, and its utilization has taken on a new dimension, largely thanks to digitization efforts carried out by memory institutions for several years. Currently, digital collections contain over 12 million newspaper articles, 70,000 books, and metadata for 785,000 objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the seminar, ideas were exchanged and discussions were held on how to create new high-quality layers of information based on the vast amount of accumulated and \u201dlayered\u201d data. How can everyone discover their own pearls, meaning information that helps them create value, from this vast and shimmering mine of data? How can the creation of new technology-driven opportunities be accompanied by security measures at the societal and individual levels?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Making digitized material intuitively accessible for public use enables creative utilization of extensive cultural heritage. Human imagination knows no bounds, and the opportunity to make cultural heritage accessible through technology is like a winning ticket for the preservation of culture. However, we do not exactly know what will happen when artificial intelligences like ChatGPT and its future siblings start applying their \u201cimagination\u201d based on these datasets. Expectations are high and positive, although a slight sense of fear can be seen in the eyes of some people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The wise utilization of memory institutions\u2019 datasets in the future will undoubtedly open up new possibilities, and efforts are actively underway to enrich digital collections. However, whether or when one of the workshop ideas from the Digital Memory seminar, such as linking and mapping each individual\u2019s quotes, writings, and photos as a biographical addition on a GIS map, will materialize remains uncertain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Speakers at the Digital Memory seminar included:<br>Thomas Padilla<\/strong> (Internet Archive; Collections as Data)<strong><br>Annika Rockenberger<\/strong> (University of Oslo Library)<strong><br>Fredrik Nor\u00e9n<\/strong> (Ume\u00e5 University)<strong><br>Vojt\u011bch Mal\u00ednek<\/strong> (Czech Academy of Sciences)<strong><br>Jessica Wevers<\/strong> and <strong>Rianne Koning<\/strong> (National Library of the Netherlands)<strong><br>Sophie Hammer<\/strong> and <strong>Martin Krickl<\/strong> (Austrian National Library)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The panel discussion on \"The Future of Creative Use of Digital Material - Where Should We Go and What Should We Do?\" featured <strong>Kadri Vare<\/strong> from the Institute of the Estonian Language, <strong>Mikk Meelak<\/strong> from the Estonian Academy of Arts\/Platform, <strong>Mirjam R\u00e4\u00e4bis<\/strong> from the National Heritage Board, and <strong>Indrek Ibrus<\/strong> from Tallinn University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The workshop was led by <strong>Regina Tagger<\/strong> and <strong>Margus Veimann<\/strong> from the Estonian National Library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The seminar was moderated by <strong>Peeter Tinits<\/strong>, <strong>Laura Nemvalts<\/strong>, and <strong>Krister Kruusmaa<\/strong>, data usage promoters from the Estonian National Library.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2150,"template":"","tags":[],"uudise_kategooria":[],"class_list":["post-2431","uudised","type-uudised","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/digilab.rara.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/digilabor-scaled-1.jpg",2560,1706,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/digilab.rara.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/digilabor-scaled-1-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/digilab.rara.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/digilabor-scaled-1-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/digilab.rara.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/digilabor-scaled-1-768x512.jpg",768,512,true],"large":["https:\/\/digilab.rara.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/digilabor-scaled-1-1024x682.jpg",1024,682,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/digilab.rara.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/digilabor-scaled-1-1536x1024.jpg",1536,1024,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/digilab.rara.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/digilabor-scaled-1-2048x1365.jpg",2048,1365,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Laura Nemvalts","author_link":"https:\/\/digilab.rara.ee\/en\/author\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"On the international seminar of the Estonian National Library\u2019s Digital Memory held on March 30th, inspiring and reliable solutions were sought on how to make cultural data more accessible, supporting our national culture and maximizing the value of collected material.
