June Barrow-Green: Digitised History

Filed under: Uncategorized — Alexandre Borovik @ 04:23

As the Society’s Librarian I am delighted that the website is going to be renewed and, as a member of the working group, pleased to be part of the process. Among the many things that the new website will offer is the opportunity not only to display newly digitised material relating to the Society’s long and distinguished history (such as the Council Minute Books dating back to 1865 and catalogues of the Society’s book collections) but also the facility to find and use that material. It is also my hope that the website will be a showcase for the most important papers published by the Society (e.g. Alan Turing’s paper on computable numbers of 1937) since this will not only help to reinforce the national significance of the Society but will also encourage authors to submit their work to the Society’s journals. Any ideas for pages relating to the Library and/or Archives or suggestions for ‘showcase’ papers would be most welcome.
