With the ability to digitally process significant amounts of multimedia, multimedia digital libraries will be increasingly common. Although digital scholarship in music, history, and literature have been widely separated in the past, we believe there are many common themes. We hope this interdisciplinary forum will highlight the possible synergies. * * * 9:30 AM Issues in Musical Informatics Eleanor Selfridge-Field, Stanford University McKeldin Library, Room 4137 Musical codes can be used to support several application domains. Among them sound, notation, and analysis are the most common and the ones on which we concentrate. While the information sets needed in all three domains have some common features, each has unique attributes as well.

Kornbluth, Michigan State University Hornbake 0115 The National Gallery of the Spoken Word (NGSW) will create a significant, fully searchable, online database of spoken word collections that span the 20th century -- the first large-scale repository of its kind. NGSW will provide storage for these digital holdings and public exhibit "space" for the most evocative collections. From Thomas Edison's first cylinder recordings, to the voices of Babe Ruth and Florence Nightingale, and Studs Terkel's timeless interviews, the collections of the NGSW will cover a variety of interests and topics. The NGSW is designed as an expansive repository of aural resources. Over time, it will grow to include many more collections from partnering institutions around the country. * * * 2:00 PM The Shakespeare Electronic Archive: Text, Image and Film in Research and Teaching Peter Donaldson, MIT McKeldin Library, Room 4137 The Shakespeare Electronic Archive is now working at the Folger and Shakespeare Institute. I will demonstrate its use and discuss plans for broader-than- Shakespeare film-text archive. Mr. Donaldson will also discuss the Archive's plan to create distance collaboration tools to make the archives useful at all levels. * * * 3:30 PM Reception hosted by Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities Mckeldin Library DIRECTIONS: http://www.lib.umd.edu/UMCP/PUB/campus_map.html McKeldin Library, http://www.lib.umd.edu/UMCP/MCK/mckeldin.html ==========================================================NINCH-Announce is an a Initiative for a Networked Cultural Heritage (NINCH).
