The 12th International Bibliotheca Baltica Symposium, which took place October 9-10, 2014, at Södertörn University in Stockholm, focused on “Digital Humanities — Where Are the Libraries?” The symposium included presentations from institutions from a variety of countries across Europe, including Latvia, Sweden, Poland, Finland, Germany, and Russia.
Jussi-Pekka Hakkarainen (National Library of Finland) posted slides from his presentation on the Digitization Project of Kindred Languages, “Making the impact on research and society: nichesourcing of Uralic language material for the benefit of linguistic research and native-speakers.” Sarah Potvin (Texas A&M) has created a storify of tweets from the symposium (#dhsodertorn).
