Abstract:
Digital Libraries are complex systems that take a long time to create
and tailor to specific requirements [1].
Their implementation requires special-
ized computer skills, which are not usually found within humanities text encod-
ing projects. Many encoders working on
text encoding projects find they cannot
take their work to the next level by transforming their collections of structured
XML [2] texts into a publishable web sear
chable and browsable service. Most
often these teams find the way to encode their texts with a high degree of so-
phistication, but unless they have funds
to hire computer programmers their col-
lections remain on local disk storage away from public access.
<teiPublisher>
is a novel tool designed with the aim of
bridging the gap between simply having
a collection of structured documents and having a functional digital library for
public access via the web. The goal of this project is to build the tools to man-
age an extensible, modular and confi
gurable XML-based repository which will
house, search/browse on, and display doc
uments encoded in TEI-Lite [3] on the
World Wide Web.
<teiPublisher>
provides an administrative interface that al-
lows DL administrators to upload and
delete documents from a web accessible
repository, analyze XML documents to
determine elements for search-
ing/browsing, refine ontology developmen
t, decide on inter and intra document
links, partition the repository into collec
tions, create backups of the entire re-
pository, generate search/browse and di
splay pages for users of the website,
change the look of the interface, and a
ssociate XSL transformation scripts and
CSS stylesheets to obtain different ta
rget outputs
