TEI Summer Session 3: Encoding Language

The final gathering of our TEI Summer Sessions focused on digital literacy, character sets, and the language of the web (e.g. unicode, XML syntax, etc.); multilingual text encoding practices (including languages that read right to left); and a variety of questions about language-based handling of digital texts encoded in TEI-XML.

We recommend installing Oxygen XML Editor. If you do not have a current subscription, 30-day trial licenses are available here: https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_editor/register.html. A limited number of computers in the UBC Digital Scholarship Lab have licensed Oxygen XML installed if you prefer to work on those machines (note: you will need to save your work to cloud storage or a portable device as the computers are wiped each night).

Sessions will be facilitated by Joey Takeda, Developer at the SFU Digital Humanities Innovation Lab and Sydney Lines, Project Manager at UBC Digital Scholarship in Arts.
