Dear AIR,

ICT Guides is a service offered by the Arts and Humanities Data Service 
(AHDS) at King's College, London (soon to be the Centre for eResearch 
CeRch). It seeks to promote the use of ICTs in research and learning 
through cataloging digital arts and humanities projects along with the 
tools and methods they employed.

A number of new projects have been added to ICT Guides:  
http://ahds.ac.uk/ictguides/projects/allProjects.jsp

Highlight:

Proceedings of the Central Criminal Court 1834 - 1913, Online

" The Central Criminal Court Online is digitising and posting in a 
searchable form 70 million words of transcripts of trials held at the 
Old Bailey between 1834 and 1913. It forms an extension to the NOF and 
AHRB funded project 'The Old Bailey Online', and forms a seamless body 
of text detailing all trials held between 1674 and 1834. In total 
approximately 125 million words of text is available. By tagging the 
rekeyed and OCRd text in XML for names, offences, trial outcomes, 
punishments, etc., the site allows comprehensive statistical information 
to be generated. "

Suggestions for new projects most welcome.
