“The sight of your letter pricks my heart through”: Digitizing the Brownings’ Correspondence at the Harry Ransom Center

This presentation will hit upon several of the conference’s broad areas of concern, highlighting unexpected finds within these important collection materials, institutional partnerships, and “showing off a digital project.” It will include slides describing our digitization process, including identifying relevant collection items, developing a project workflow with Baylor, metadata and scanning trouble-shooting, and a consideration of intellectual and archival issues encountered during the project.
