What People Say
“The individuals working on the editing of historical documents have different backgrounds, interests, and motivations. As such the results of a digital edition can change from project to project. I believe the technologies we choose need to be flexible in order to accommodate these needs. Content management systems like Drupal allow for editorial work and publication to happen in the same environment while also providing avenues for mapping techniques, charts, and the display of content from other resources. Technologies like Drupal allow editions to combine standards with project specific customizations that really help to tell the story desired by the ones working on the project.”
