Information Organization and Access in Digital Humanities: TaDiRAH Revised, Formalized and FAIR. Borek, L., Hastik, C., Khramova, V., Illmayer, K., & Geiger, J. D.

Paper abstract bibtex Classifying and categorizing the activities that comprise the digital humanities (DH) has been a longstanding area of interest for many practitioners in this field, fueled by ongoing attempts to define the field both within the academic and public sphere. Several European initiatives are currently shaping advanced research infrastructures that would benefit from an implementation of a suiting taxonomy. Therefore, new humanities and information science collaborations have been formed to provide a service that meets their needs. This working paper presents the transformation of the Taxonomy of Digital Research Activities in the Humanities (TaDiRAH) in order to make it machine-readable and become a formalized taxonomy. This includes the methodology and realization containing a complete revision of the original version, decisions in modelling, the implementation as well as organization of ongoing and future tasks. TaDiRAH addresses a wide range of humanities disciplines and integrates application areas from philologies as well as epigraphy, and musicology to name just a few. For this reason, the decision in favor of SKOS was made purely pragmatically in terms of technology, concept and domains. New language versions can now be easily integrated and low-threshold term extensions can be carried out via Wikidata. The new TaDiRAH not only represents a knowledge organization system ( KOS ) which has recently been released as version 2.0. According to the FAIR principles this new version improves the Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse of research data and digital assets in the digital humanities.
