Interested in open access, the digital humanities, or conducting digital scholarship in

classics or archaeology, or even how to get started? Then, please consider joining us
next January 3 at the AIA-SCS pre-meeting workshop "Deconstructing the Open Greek and
Latin Project"!
In this workshop, partners from the Perseus Digital Library, the Harvard Library and
Harvard Center for Hellenic Studies, the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World, the
University of Leipzig, Mount Allison University, and the University of Virginia Library
will come together to demonstrate research tools, explain how to involve students in
digital scholarship, provide open data for hands-on exploration from the Open Greek and
Latin Project, as well as create a growing and supportive open access community.
Tools and technologies we'll work with include GitHub, Oxygen, TEI-XML and EpiDoc
Registration is offered on a "first-come first-served" basis and the workshop is
offered free-of-charge with a registration deadline of Friday, November, 3, 2017.
