Cultural Heritage Markup:
Using Markup to preserve, understand, and disseminate cultural
heritage materials
a Balisage pre-conference symposium
Monday 10 August 2015
Bethesda North Marriott Hotel & Conference Center, Bethesda, MD, USA
Markup and markup technologies are used in a wide variety of cultural heritage projects by linguists, students of literature, librarians, historians, curators, and others. Markup is used behind the scenes in archives, libraries, and museums to create and store metadata and the textual content of a wide variety of materials both textual and artefactual. We dedicate this day to discussion of the challenges and possibilities of markup technologies used in the preservation of our cultural heritage and its transmission to future generations.
