NFDI4Culture Metadata API

NFDI4Culture continues its cooperation with the workshop series ‘Retrodigitisation (WSRD)’ in 2026, organized by  TIB – Leibniz-Informationszentrum Technik und Naturwissenschaften, ZB MED – Informationszentrum Lebenswissenschaften and ZBW – Leibniz-Informationszentrum Wirtschaft as well as Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin – Preußischer Kulturbesitz

This time we want to talk about ‘Digitisation for eternity? – Data quality in practice'. 

A lot can go wrong when creating retrodigitised material and the associated metadata. Once master data is incorrect, correcting it can be either expensive or even impossible. This year's retrodigitisation workshop will focus on the creation, validation and storage of retrodigitised material in the best possible formats, ways to achieve the optimal format for digitised material, and ways of dealing with errors and pitfalls, balancing between requirements and feasibility.

For this we want to bring together practitioners from libraries, archives, museums, and collections, who deal with retrodigitisation. 

Event: 8th Retrodigitisation Workshop: Digitisation for Eternity? – Data Quality in Practice

When: 19 and 20 March 2026

Where: Berlin State Library
